Hayley Kim Hall Photography

Relaxed, natural and always inclusive wedding photography and cinematic highlight films for couples who want honest moments, warm colour and just enough gentle direction. Based in Sussex and travelling across the South East and beyond.

Every couple deserves to feel completely seen, safe and celebrated. I know the battles the community face with love and acceptance and the privilege it is to be able to have a legal union in marriage. I photograph relationships as they really are, without assumptions or awkward scripts, and creating an easy, welcoming experience from the first chat to gallery delivery. I regard myself as a 'queer affirming' supplier; not just welcoming but considered before you've even come to me! I grew up in a queer family and friends and as a long term Brighton native (20+ years) I feel actually most comfortable around the LGBTQ+ community.

My approach is documentary-led with an editorial eye. I capture the day as it naturally unfolds, then gently guide group photographs and couple portraits so you feel comfortable rather than posed. Real connection, energy and all the blink-and-you'll-miss-it moments.

The people. I love the big, loud, love-filled moments, but also the quiet ones in between - the look across a room, a hand squeeze, the laughter that happens when nobody thinks the camera is watching. I mean this is basically the best job in the world. I also love tearing up the dancefloor with you!

Packages range from ceremony-only coverage to half-day and full-day photography, with photo-and-film options available. Every package includes a private online gallery with guest access and print ordering; half-day and full-day collections also include archival prints and a complimentary pre-wedding shoot.

No — I photograph one wedding per day so each couple has my full attention!

Wedding coverage is priced per package/event. Extra hours can be added subject to availability and are quoted when booked.

No special materials are required. For outdoor photographs, a simple wet-weather plan is always helpful.

Bank transfer or all major cards. A £250 deposit and signed contract secure your date; the remaining balance is due before the wedding in line with the contract.
