Rooted in Love.
Fueled by Passion.
Guided by Legacy.

I’m Haley “Hayy” — the Owner/Founder of Rooted In Poppy Photography.

I’m a Freelance + Portrait (Dogs included🥰) + Candid photographer based in the Frederick, Maryland / DMV area.

This business was born from pain, purpose, and the deepest kind of love.    

Dedicated to my late grandfather, George Douglas Cassera, “Poppy.”

I thrive in the chaos, the laughter, the quiet in-between moments — pulling people out of their shells and capturing them as they genuinely are.

My hope is to create a space that feels like sunshine- where you feel seen, heard, celebrated, and free just to be you! If you love spontaneous moments, with lots of humor creating those feel-good belly laughs, and a photographer who will hype you up like you’re the main character (because you are) — I’m your girl! 

I look forward to creating with you and bringing your vision to life. 📸

Now, let’s make something beautiful!

Thanks for being here!

XO,
Hayy
