2025 INVESTMENT GUIDE

HANNA

xoxo, Hanna

meet 

I’m Hanna Walkowaik (my last name is pronounced Wa-Cove-E-ack) but feel free to just call me Hanna. I am so honored you connected with my work. Growing up with a darkroom in my house, then years later graduating with a photography Bachelors Degree from Columbia College Chicago, being a photographer is my life’s work. Since 2013, I have photographed over 200 weddings and am still obsessed with my job. I absolutely love being an artist and being able to tell your love story through artful and documentary based imagery. Besides photography, I love traveling, cocktails, trying new restaurants and being with my people. I love living in the city (recently made the move from Chicago to LA,) but don't get me wrong, I'll hike a mountain in the rain for the perfect photo or even for a good story. I can’t wait to hear about your wedding day!

Forget everything you know about traditional wedding photography. Welcome to an artful and story-telling approach that is all about celebrating your love, your wedding and your people. I use a style of posing that is direction based to create cinematic portraits, while mixing in both fashion based, editorial-style and candid, documentary images that together make your wedding day look like it’s straight out of a magazine. 

"She is an artist - completely capturing the authenticity of your day"

cecily & Griffin

We cannot recommend Hanna enough. She is an artist - completely capturing the authenticity of your day with an astounding eye for the shot. She was thorough in her approach to getting to know us, our vision, and our wedding day timeline. The finished product speaks for itself; we got married in February 2023 and are still talking about what an excellent job she did today (& know we will continue to do so for years to come!). Hanna & her second photographer were friendly, professional, and worked together seamlessly on our wedding day. The photos capture us, our friends and family, and the feeling of our wedding better than we could have imagined. We cannot thank Hanna enough for the memories she has gifted us through her photography - book her!!! You will not regret it!!!

The package includes a minimum of 6 rolls, used to complement your digital images. For weddings with a heavier focus on film, pricing may vary.

engagement session // starts at 1000 (50% off with a booked wedding day)

Your experience begins way before the aisle.
À la carte wedding event coverage could mean welcome drinks, rehearsal dinner, next day brunch. Whatever you’re dreaming up, I would love to cover as part of the full wedding experience.

Heirloom albums are available to add on to any package. Custom design by Hanna and printed by a high end album company only available to professional photographers. 

additional hours // 800

Additional hours may be added to any package. Do you want your full dance floor documented or doing a wedding exit? This is for you!

boudoir // starts at 1200

Schedule a boudoir session before your wedding for a confidence boost or as a meaningful gift for your partner. Consider a bridal or wedding portrait session before or after your big day to showcase your wedding attire in an epic location with ideal lighting.

I guarantee at least 75 images per hour of shooting. Beyond that, there is no set number or cap to the amount of images I take. My focus is delivering a curated gallery of all the images that tell the story of your day.

I have two payment options: Pay 50% as a retainer at the time you sign your contract and the final 50% 30 days prior to the wedding OR Split up the retainer in two payments, essentially making four payments of 25%, the final payment due 30 days before your wedding date. 

Q. How many images can we expect?

Q. what is your payment process?

Q. do you help in the planning process?

Q. What is your turnaround time?

I deliver a large sneak peek gallery within one week of your wedding. You can expect your full gallery within 8-10 weeks. Engagement photos are delivered within 6 weeks.

Yes, it is part of your package for me to assist with timeline planning. I have years of experience. From when I should arrive and depart, to how long it is going to take to photograph each portrait component, to when you should do your first dance or cake cutting; I have your answers. Note: Even if you have a
planner, photography needs require a more detail timeline.

*And if they aren’t listed here, feel free to ask in our connect call.

More questions?

I've got answers*

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I use Canon equipment and my second photographers always shoot with similar professional gear. We have lighting equipment to be prepared for any kind of lighting situation. We always bring backup cameras, lenses, flashes, memory cards, and batteries.

Q. WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE? DO YOU HAVE EQUIPMENT BACKUPS?

Keeping photos safe starts on the wedding day. As I am photographing, photos are automatically writing to two different memory cards. Once I get home, your photos are immediately backed up to 2 different hard drives, as well as a cloud-based storage. This insures all photos are safe.

Q. HOW DO YOU KEEP MY PHOTOS SECURE?
