Contact Me!


Many families reach out before they're ready to book. They have questions about timing, pricing, what type of session might be the best fit, or whether they're even at the right stage to start planning.

Reaching out doesn't commit you to anything.


When you contact me, you'll hear directly from me! We can talk through your timeline, what you're hoping for, what's feeling uncertain, or any questions you have. If it feels right, we can move forward. If not, that's okay too.


Whether you're ready to book or just starting to explore your options, I'd love to hear from you!

A heartwarming series of candid moments showing playful laughter and connection in soft mint green and blush tones.

Meet Haley | Fredericksburg, VA Maternity & Newborn Photographer

I’m the photographer behind H. Thompson Studios — and the person who will be there helping calm nervous toddlers, swaddling your newborn, fixing flyaway hairs, and making sure you never have to wonder what to do with your hands.


I photograph maternity, newborn, milestone, and family sessions for families throughout Fredericksburg and Northern Virginia, creating artwork that feels polished, emotional, and true to the people in front of my camera.


More than anything, I want your session to feel easy. These moments matter, and my goal is to create an experience that allows you to actually enjoy being present in them.
