brands
aren’t built in board rooms.
At Lamar Haaley Studios, we’re on a mission to bring humanity back to corporate video. We believe in the marriage between genuine human connection and business results, rejecting stale, cookie-cutter content in favor of stories that resonate deeply.

We craft engaging narratives and visuals that not only connect with your audience but also drive meaningful business outcomes, whether you’re raising capital, recruiting talent, or fostering customer loyalty.
From innovative startups to life-changing healthcare providers, we help businesses articulate their value with authenticity and purpose, ensuring every piece of content contributes to your long-term success.

Craftsmanship
When it comes to our craft, we're absolute beasts. Excellence isn’t just a goal; it’s our expectation. From script to screen, we bring world-class heat, setting the bar high and leaping over it every chance we get.
Collaboration
When it comes to tackling challenges and cooking up solutions, we're in it together, making sure everyone gets their shine. No ball hogs or slackers -- just a crew with a hunger for collective brilliance. We thrive on that sense of belonging, where everybody's got a seat at the table, laughter is second nature, and friendships are born.
Celebration
When we win, it's a family affair. From team victories to personal milestones, we're all about popping bottles and giving props. Because every shared fist bump, ugly cry, and "OMG I can't believe we just pulled that off!" lifts the whole team higher.
Care
We show love for ourselves, for one another, for our clients, and for the world we live in. Because it's about more than just business; it's about leaving this place better than we found it.
our story — miraculous
A letter from our founder:
"I love it when folks ask me, ‘So… who exactly is Lamar Haaley?’
The first part’s easy. Lamar is my middle name. But the rest of the story? It’s nothing short of a miracle.
Back in college, my uncle had twin baby girls named Haley and Storm. They came into this world too early, and life hit them hard right from the start. Sadly, Storm didn’t make it. We all braced ourselves for the worst, thinking Haley wouldn’t be far behind. But man, were we wrong.
Haley is a force of nature. She beat every odd, bounced back stronger and faster than any doctor predicted. They said she’d have severe birth defects—she didn’t. They said she’d struggle with vision and motor skills—she doesn’t.
Today, Haley’s a beautiful soul with an even more beautiful story. She loves to laugh, sing, play, and dance. Every time I see her smile, I’m reminded that with God, anything is possible.
She’s a fighter, and this company stands tall in her honor."
