I’m Hayli. I’m a 25-year-old full-time videographer, photographer, licensed drone pilot and an avid midnight baker. I’ve been behind the camera most of my life. With an incredible photographer as my mother, the camera was no stranger to me. I spend most of my free time traveling to places with trees that touch the sky. I can think of no better day than waking up to coffee and a view.

I grew up in Elgin, Texas, a small charming town just 30 minutes east of Austin. I went to the University of Texas at Austin (HOOK ‘EM) as a journalism major. After graduation I was ready to head across seas to London for grad school but you guessed it…COVID. I was back in my childhood room, passing time, desperate for a creative outlet. So I bought a drone, started really really learning all my equipment and began forcing my sister and friends into styled shoots.

There was an undeniable love for the camera. The freedom and almost relief to be able to show people how I see the world, is one of the best feeling ever. I shot my first video nearly 6 years ago and I haven’t stopped since. I wouldn't change a single thing.
