About
Hey there! I’m Haley (aka Hayy), founder of Rooted In Poppy Photography — a Maryland & DMV photographer specializing in weddings, surprise proposals, elopements, couples, events, portraits, and candid storytelling photography. 📸✨ I’m here for the real-life moments — the genuine laughs, the chaos, the connection, and the golden-hour magic that makes your story feel real. 🫶🏼 My sessions are laid-back, fun, and full of hype-you-up energy from start to finish. No stiff posing, no awkward vibes — just genuine connection and images that actually feel like you. Inspired by my late grandfather, Poppy, and rooted in legacy, I create warm, emotional, true-to-color imagery with a candid storytelling approach that turns moments into lifelong keepsakes. 💛 Based in Frederick, Maryland and serving the entire DMV area. Let’s create something beautiful! 💖

Everything about my experience with Rooted In Poppy Photography was amazing. Haley did an unbelievable job of taking the best photos possible of my dog and I. My dog is older and Haley was so gentle and kind with her. Haley was engaging, sociable, and passionate about her work. I am so thankful for the experience, I highly recommend working with Rooted In Poppy Photography!

Working with Haley was such a genuinely fun and creative experience. From the start she created an atmosphere that felt relaxed, collaborative, and full of positive energy, which made the entire shoot feel natural and effortless. She has a great instinct for composition and lighting, but what stood out most was how she encouraged creativity and movement while still guiding the process with a clear artistic vision. The whole session felt less like a formal photoshoot and more like a shared creative exploration, and that energy really shows in the final images. I’d absolutely work with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who brings both professionalism and great creative spirit to the experience.

Haley, was amazing to work with and so easy. She stepped right in, for my daughter’s last minute wedding needs! Came in early and after a few questions got right to setting up. Not only were her photos incredible, her easy to work with personality made it effortless for a stressed out Dad lol! Thank you so much Haley!!!
