  • As standard, I provide a varied, comprehensive range of images that capture the spirit and magic of your performance. I work with you to understand the performance, key moments/elements, and the images required. Where possible, I attend a rehearsal ahead of photographing the show in preparation. I then work quickly on the day to adapt, ensuring I capture the production in its entirety.  

  • As standard, I provide next-day highlights, with the full gallery arriving in 5 working days. If you need your images within a specific timeframe e.g. ahead of press night, please let me know and I am happy to work with a tighter turnaround.

  • Professionalism runs throughout my work, providing you with high quality images whilst working in a subtle, unobtrusive manner, respectful to the environment of a performance or rehearsal

  • Images will be polished and marketing-ready, able to be adapted and used across a varied range of communications channels and design applications. Images will be provided in both full resolution and a resized format, optimised for digital channels.

  • If you are looking for a promotional or portfolio shoot (either for a production or your own creative practice), I will work with you to plan out what you need, collaborating to create a concept and set of photos which matches your needs.

"We are delighted with the Please Do Not Touch production photos, which capture both the stunning design and the spirit of the performance. Hayley was great to work with: professional and sensitive to the environment of a dress rehearsal. Turnaround times were also quick, to promote the show in good time. We would certainly work with Hayley again." - Paul Warwick, China Plate Theatre Artistic Director
