About Artist

Hayley Young

Hayley Young is a Seattle-area photographer, director, and visual storyteller whose formal portrait practice centers on place, power, and the quiet authority of a single, carefully constructed image. A subject's rootedness in landscape, metaphor, and/or the particular details of their world, are the means by which she invites her viewers in.
