I just realized weāve never done a little get to know me post⦠so hi! šµāš«š¤
Iām Hailey Brooks, Iām 24 years old, and Iām the face behind Wild Ember Photography. š¤
When Iām not behind the camera, youāll usually find me hanging out with my 11 chickens, loving on my two sweet dogs (who are absolutely spoiled), spending time with my nieces and nephews who love their Auntie Hailey, sipping on a iced vanilla berry redbull𤪠or spending time with my amazing partner here in Lebanon, Oregon. Iāve lived in Oregon most of my life, and I truly love getting to capture memories all over this beautiful state.
I started Wild Ember Photography last year as a simple āletās see what happensā kind of dream. If Iām being honest, I had absolutely no clue what I was doing and was terrified. Fast forward to March of this year, and I was able to take this little dream full-time. That still doesnāt feel real.
I couldnāt have done any of this without the endless support from my family, friends, and every single person who has trusted me to capture their memories. You all gave me a chance when this business was just getting started, and Iāll never be able to thank you enough.
One of my favorite parts of this job is that my clients never feel like just clients. So many of you have become genuine friends, and thatās something Iāll always cherish.
I never imagined Wild Ember Photography would grow into what it is today, and I donāt take a single booking, message, or recommendation for granted. Whether youāve been here since day one or just found my page, thank you for being here. I truly canāt wait to meet all of the new faces still to come. ā¤ļø
Thanks again for the amazing support and love from everyoneš«¶
