The Nitty Gritty.
If I only had thirty seconds to describe myself, in a nutshell, it would probably go something like this. My name is Hannah. I'm from Iowa. I am a hard-core Type 2 with a wing 3. I pretend to be a coffee snob even though I don't finish a cup half the time. Totally a hopeless romantic. The best feeling ever is a good belly laugh, accomplishing a goal, and hugging my sweet fiancé. I deeply value faith and family. I am grateful the Lord continues to lead me on this creative journey— color pallets, shutter speeds, and much more. You can always find me sunset chasin', down a country backroad, with the jams cranked up high. I am hard working, driven, down-to-earth, spontaneous (most of the time), and a good friend.
Heart & Soul.
Midwest born and raised, my roots run deep in America's heartland. I was taught the value of kindness and hard work from a young age— shaping how I view the relationship between work and life. Watching my parents love each other and build a life they both loved was magical.
Isn’t that what it's all about? In our ever changing world, seek a life to love— one you want to wake up to every morning. Slow and simple with just the right amount of cream in your coffee and the dogs hollering out back. It's a porch swing on a crisp morning or a long walk on a hot summer night. Building a life you can be proud of is truly a labor of love.
My specialty is one of a storyteller— seeing the genuine you and harmonizing with your biggest, wildest dreams. I want to hear your best memories and the sweet details that speak to who you are. What sets your soul on fire? What makes you feel confident? Your story is rare and valued— an honor I don’t take lightly.
I believe the feeling of creating powerful visuals is what first interested me in photography and design. As a little girl, I couldn't tell you how many camera rolls I filled taking photos of anything and everything. I've always wanted to create. The moment you hold that dreamy vision in your hands is one of the best feelings ever— a testament to the Lord's provision.
