All you need to know is that Hannah will take care of you from the very moment you say “hello”, to even after the photos are delivered. Hannah is so welcoming and easy to work with! She’ll make you feel amazing during your shoot, and show you how amazing you look after! Her communication is off the charts. She will respond quickly, give you as much information as you want/need, and adapts to literally anything and everything you could throw at her! But y’all, her skills are just unmatched.
Her communication is off the charts.

Hannah is so personal and full of life! She keeps you laughing and at ease during your photography session. My husband and I enjoy when we have our photos done with her. Our Elopement photos turned out perfect and really takes me back to that Magical day! She turned out to be a great friend through our wedding process. You will not be disappointed if you book with her! I highly recommend her.

I wanted to shop around for photographers, which is quite funny to me because our first photographer we met with was Hannah. We had such a connection with her my husband & I instantly decided not to meet with anyone else & book her. Best decision we ever made.
Best decision we made was hiring Hannah
Genievieve s.
We absolutely LOVED our Elopement photos from Hannah. She was very easy to work with and made the whole experience fun. Due to COVID, we had to postpone our day and Hannah was extremely flexible and accommodating. I highly recommend working with Hannah!

An adventure elopement is intentionally planning a romantic/FUN experience for you and your partner. This approach is for couples who want to put their relationship as the main focus of the day.
Elopements have evolved over time. If you talk to anyone over the age of 50 (including my dad LOL) they are totally confused when eloping doesn't mean going to the courthouse unplanned.
Google describes Elopement as the act of leaving home secretly in order to get married. Elopements have evolved into an act of love that is intentional and meaningful to the couple.
Weddings have become an extremely overwhelming event for couples to plan. Many couples don't feel the need to throw a giant party for everyone else. They would rather go on an adventure of a lifetime where they can truly focus on celebrating that they have found their person.
There are ways to incorporate loved ones into your Elopement! Ask me how :)
