When you look back on your photos I want you to remember the genuine fun that you're having - that you love how comfortable and relaxed and that you look and feel like you. On a wedding day- I'll provide direction with natural posing but also craft an experience to let those true moments happen. I want to blend into the background during important moments, letting the story unfold, while still capturing the day. Taking micromoments to really remember what the day is about and allow you to be you! You probably aren't totally comfortable in front of the camera but don't worry, I'll coach you through it to create real joyful memories and some epic wedding photos! My goal is that you look at your wedding photos and remember the joy and happiness - not think "remember when that photographer made us feel awkward in a field."
I'm one of the rare people actually from Bend. After adventuring around the world and meeting my husband in New York City, I convinced him that we were Oregon people at heart and moved back here! We welcomed our baby girl Sophie and have truly made our home here!
You spend SO MUCH time with your photographer on your wedding it's important you find someone you mesh with. My goal is to bring the best energy for you on the day- that might mean I'm the one putting in your veil, helping with the bustle, or even being the one to nicely divert family members about adding more photos when you're ready to take a break! The greatest compliment I get is when guests ask me how I know the Bride & Groom - because by your wedding day we'll absolutely feel like old friends (which happens a lot!)
The best photos are when you're truly yourself - whether thats relaxed or playful I want you to be completely authentic to you! Part of that is creating the space, time, and direction that allows for these moments to naturally unfold
She is knowledgeable, kind, and TALENTED! We had a blast with her and could tell throughout our time that she truly is passionate about what she does. You can’t go wrong hiring Hannah...we couldn’t believe the number of magical shots we got of our wedding. We feel so lucky to have found her!
There are a ton of decisions you will make for your wedding or elopement. A couple can easily get lost in the minutiae of a wedding day. One thing you will NEVER regret is hiring Hannah to capture your wedding. She has an incredible talent and will capture your ceremony with elegance and class! She was the best decision we made.
We absolutely LOVED our experience having Hannah as a photographer. She was super helpful before the wedding with planning a realistic timeline for the day,. We were both nervous about photos because we don’t feel we are photogenic and aren’t used to having professional photos taken, but Hannah made us feel SO comfortable and that really shows in the final pictures. We feel so lucky that we got to have her as our photographer
We are so grateful to have had Hannah’s expertise and incredible talents at our wedding to capture our memories! It was most important to us to take the day slow and feel like we could take in all the little moments along the way and Hannah’s approach allowed us to do just that. Everything was perfectly planned without feeling rushed and allowed for flexibility to get extra time to take it all in.
Hiring Hannah was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Throughout the planning process she was flexible, responsive, and supportive--going above and beyond the typical role. Our wedding day ended up being quite snowy and she did an incredible job capturing the magic of that experience while taking care to make sure we got chances to warm up and enjoy. Hannah was very efficient, frequently finishing well ahead of schedule.
