2026 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!!!

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.

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.

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?

"Every single person in any of Hanna's photos looked so effortlessly ~cool~"

Emily & David

If I had to redo my wedding and could only pick one vendor to keep, Hanna would be the one. Choosing her as our photographer was simply the best decision that we made in the entire wedding planning process. My home is now full of beautiful pieces of art that she created from our favorite day ever I was drawn to Hanna's work because of the moody, candid vibes that she incorporates into her photography style. It is unique, and distinct, and not your grandma's wedding photography. Mainly, I wanted my husband and I to look cool on our wedding day. I noticed that every single person in any of Hanna's photos looked so effortlessly ~cool~ and I knew we had to book her. When I look at our wedding photos, I feel like I can remember the whole thing. The sweet moments between me and my husband, the gorgeous rainbow, the head banging on the dance floor, and photos of pretty much every single one of our guests. Above all of the amazing things about Hanna, my favorite is that her photos really carry the energy and emotions from the memories. Not staged, just perfect snapshots of the moments in time that you get to keep and show off for the rest of your life.
