I'm not exaggerating when I say being able to work with Hana Haley is an absolute dream come true! She will be cracking jokes and telling cute antidotes before suddenly falling silent as she starts visualizing a shot, considering the location and weighing how the sun will fall on a face while looking through her film camera's viewfinder. She has a strong vision and a very talented, trained eye but is still willing to listen to my silly suggestions.
Shot with failing light and my collection of frothy vintage (or retro inspired, in the case of the milkshake one!) dresses in a Foresty theme park, I am in love with how these turned out. Hana's photography always look like film stills that immediately bring to mind story lines about nostalgia and candy colored adventures.
My friend Bertha's description of what these remind her of is my favorite:
"They (look like stills from a movie about a) lost ghost princess who’s been cursed out of her kingdom and is left wandering the earth, searching for another doorway in, another way back."
You can see more pictures from this shoot on Hana's Facebook and Portfolio ♡
Goodness me, they are just so whimsically-wonderfully, dreamy and magically awe-inspiring (so many hyphens!). I love love LOVE them, Kailey - Hana did an absolutely amazing job and you look (as always) so beautiful. You guys are a match made in heaven, that's for sure!! xx
