Haley is the fourth photographer we've worked with to capture the precious moments of baby's first year and will definitely be the last. We used separate photographers, for each shoot, for our first daughter from maternity, newborn, milestone, and cake smash and could not find someone that we felt pleased and comfortable working with more than once until now. Beyond her impeccable skill and professionalism she is kind, organized and communicative which made bringing our ideas to life that much easier. She sent notes and guidelines prior to each shoot (maternity and newborn) which not only streamlined the process but put us at complete ease. I waited to do my maternity shoot until 2 weeks before I delivered so I was quite uncomfortable and did not have a lot of energy for a long day of walking and poses but she worked quickly and captured me in the most beautiful lighting in the exact way I wanted her to. Also, my husband and 15 month old were not able to make the shoot last minute and she was able to accommodate the change no problem. Our newborn shoot was impressive and perfect as well. She is a true master of her craft with an incredible in home studio where she provided all props, accessories, and outfits. I was able to sit back and relax in her lounge area while watching her work so gently with my 9 day old. She even had snacks set out for us. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for, not only the highest quality photos, but the best photographer experience for family and baby. read more

I found Haley Grant through an online search of best Austin maternity/newborn photographers. I was so impressed at her gallery and was thrilled she had an opening for our due date. Our maternity photos came out better than I could have imagined. She was able to capture family shots with our 22 month old (who was as cooperative as any wild toddler can be). She is amazing with newborns. I was in awe of how she was able to swaddle and pose our 6 day old while keeping her sound asleep. The sets ups and outfits she picked out based on my suggestions were absolutely perfect. On top of her high quality work, she is also super sweet and lovely to talk to. She is simply the best in Austin. read more

Don't think twice about booking ! Not only is Haley super friendly and inviting she talks you through the whole process to make you feel comfortable during your sessions .

I will definitely be booking again for all my future sessions with this baby and future babies to come . Her attention to detail and passion for photography really can be seen in every photo. Overall I couldn't say enough great things about her, you will have a great experience and photos to cherish for years to come . read more

Haley has been absolutely wonderful to work with. Her home studio set up is extremely professional, yet homey and comforting. Even during these uncertain times, Haley was quick to respond to questions about scheduling, and took her already stringent cleanliness practices to the next level. The quality of her work also speaks for herself. My wife browsed through what seemed like never ending galleries for other photographers, but kept coming back to Haley. Her setup and outfit choices were truly adorable; there was no way any input from us would have made it any better. Turnaround time has been fantastic, and we cannot wait to get the final proofs back of our little man! read more

Haley is truly a talent and baby whisperer, her demeanor when handling our baby was so incredible. She really is an EXPERT at what she does. She took such great care of our baby during the shoot and my husband and I were able to just sit back and relax in her nice lounge area. Her in home studio is seriously the cutest thing ever, took a minute to take it all in. It was professional, comfortable and relaxing. She has everything from cute color coordinated outfits, backdrops, and props to changing table and sound machine. We HIGHLY recommend her services and will be coming back for my baby's future milestones. ~ Jena & Nick read more

I loved working with Haley for our newborn photos! I was in and out of the hospital before and after delivery so there was a lot of rescheduling. Luckily, Haley was more than willing to work with us and got us worked into the schedule! At the session she was professional, COVID safe, and great with my daughter. She took my color and prop preferences and created some beautiful photos! They're exactly what we were looking for and we loved all of them! I would definitely recommend her and we plan on using her again! We look forward to getting some sibling and family shots done wit her in the near future :) read more

Haley is uh-mazing!! She is the epitome of professional. We showed up, and her studio was completely ready for our shoot and only our shoot. She reviewed how everything was going to go and what outfits and backgrounds she has set up for us. She does everything too! Fill out the survey when you book with her and you get everything you ask for! She does all the outfit changes, you sit back and relax. The photos are beyond incredible as well. We were worried that our baby would wake up, but Haley has that studio set up for a baby and is so good at maneuvering everything. Haley Grant is the best. read more

We have been lucky enough to have Haley take photos for close to 4 years now!! Maternity, newborn and then milestone years. This year our girl turned 3 and was a typical busy 3 year old. I was hoping for 1-2 pictures that showed our sweet family as our toddler was "busy" throughout the shoot. Haley DID NOT disappoint. She always manages to capture our families spirit and dynamic. I am obsessed once again with every photo and can not express how fantastic she is. She truly captured my daughters spirit and I thank her. You will not be disappointed when you book her!! read more

Haley never fails to amaze me with her impeccable work. I have worked with Haley in the past and plan on continue to book more sessions in the future. Haley is great to work with when planning the session ahead of time and discussing any ideas you may have. Haley also captures such beautiful pictures and does the most adorable poses with newborns. You cannot go wrong when booking any sessions with Haley, she has such great patience! My toddler is not easy but Haley always knows how to work with her when did our most recent newborn session and took a family portrait. read more

Haley is great! She is professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She responded quickly to all emails/texts. Haley's studio is very welcoming and she makes you feel very comfortable. She has so many great backdrops, outfits and props for newborn photo sessions. It was nice that I didn't have to plan anything for the session. She picked great backdrops and props based on the initial questionnaire and it was set up when we arrived. She is very patient and works sooo well with infants! All of the photos are beautiful! I would highly recommend Haley! read more

Haley is AMAZING!!!! This was our fourth photo shoot and each time has just exceeded our expectations! She is a miracle worker during the newborn sessions. She makes you feel completely comfortable while she's working with your newborn. With the first year photos, she was an angel with my son!! He just kept crying at first (stranger danger) and she took the time to just hold him and play with him to make him more comfortable. She was extremely patient and sweet with him!!!!! I will use her for all my future needs!! read more

Haley is professional, calm, sweet and fun. I normally get very uncomfortable in front of the camera, but she put me at ease during the photo shoot and I was really pleased with the outcome. She really personalizes the shoot to the people she is working with and my husband and I were really pleased with the whole experience. We not only got lovely pictures out of it, but also a wonderful, relaxed day. She gets her pictures to you quickly too! I would recommend her to all! read more

Haley was amazing to work with! I waited until the very last minute and reached out in a panic to book my newborn session before my baby was two weeks old and Haley was so quick to respond, super accommodating and able to fit me in within a few days notice. She has a full studio and provided gorgeous outfits/props and I felt extremely comfortable while she was working with the baby. A true pleasure to work with, I'll definitely be using Haley for future photography sessions! read more

Haley with Admire the Light Photography made my maternity photos so special. I wanted to capture how I looked while I was pregnant with my son and she did such an amazing job. We spent the afternoon at the Botanical Gardens in Austin, which was the perfect backdrop for the pictures. I'm so glad I chose to have Haley take my photos because she made the experience both special and fun! I will definitely use her services again and recommend her to my friends and family. read more

Haley is beyond talented! I'm so glad we stumbled upon her site and used her for both maternity and newborn photos. We will be back for additional sessions for sure. Haley is kind, professional, creative and patient. Her communication is wonderful and her work impeccable. As another reviewer mentioned- she is truly the baby whisperer! Thank you so much for what you do, Haley, and for capturing such a special moment in time in such a wonderful way. read more

We used Haley Grant Photography for our maternity pictures and newborn pictures. For the maternity pictures I was worried I'd hate them all because I felt so huge and swollen, but man! Haley made me feel absolutely beautiful. My husband said the entire process was so stress free and he loves the pictures so much. The newborn pictures was equally as amazing. Watching Haley work her magic was truly incredible. She's definitely got a gift. read more

Haley truly is a baby whisperer. She has a magic touch with babies. She made our newborn photos with our daughter, Kira, everything we could have hoped for and more. We look forward to treasuring these photos forever. She had everything down to a tee. The outfits were nicely laid out to match the colors we chose, she talked us through each step of the process, and made us feel comfortable along the way. We can't thank Haley enough! :) read more
