Hannah Pickle

ed my awkward self and my husband throughout the day get the best photos. We had a small wedding of 50 and she treated us no different than a larger party. The moment we saw the gallery, we fell in love! The art is timeless, stunning, and it speaks for itself. Exactly as I wanted. I haven't started our home search yet, but I know I can't wait to put these on display! Thank you again Hannah and for any future brides, you are in good hands!

r, and sent us literally a thousand images we're going to cherish forever. She completely understood what we were going for - that we didn't want to feel overly staged/manufactured on our wedding day - and was amazing and catching all the emotions as they unfolded. She told the story of our wedding day in a truly magical way, and we wouldn't give up these memories for the world. She was also incredibly organized and professional throughout the process, and was able to add film onto our package, which we loved. Finally, she's an absolute JOY to be around, and really felt like one of our pals throughout the day. We couldn't recommend Hannah enough!

ur wedding day. She captured the moods, feelings and vibes perfectly. Looking at our album brings our day right back to life! She manages to do this all in a discrete way that is natural and authentic. We are so happy our decision to work with Hannah!

h a happy, easy time working with them. Please consider hiring Hannah for your wedding, you will get the best pictures you can treasure for a lifetime. She is such a gem.

and her creative eye captured so many special moments. What impressed us most was how she balanced being professional while also feeling like a friend who was celebrating alongside us. If you're looking for a photographer who can make your wedding day both comfortable and memorable, we highly recommend her.

has such a great mix of editorial, fun, in the moment and also the traditional wedding photos that parents want. She even helped deal with a TON of LARGE family pictures. Truly a pro!

My Dad smiling (he never smiles!). The way the candles lit up the flowers on our reception tables. Our first look! We loved her candid, authentic style. Her photos are not stiff or staged. She photographed us living the magic of our wedding day. She observed and documented the small moments and big. She made sure we got all the family photo groupings, and kept me calm through all the chaos! She found all the little details at the reception: the Swiftie friendship bracelets I made for guests in a jar at the bar, the photos of my grandmother and mom on their wedding days by the cake. She was in the middle of the dance floor later that night, and the photos of the fun are epic. These photos show our real smiles and reactions to the day. They’re photos we’re hanging on our walls. I highly recommend working with Hannah as your wedding photographer. She’s a calm presence on your wedding day — she makes you forget she’s taking your photo, and the candid photos that result are so special. We will always appreciate her professionalism, attention to detail, and kindness!

ing out with a friend than working with a photographer. Hannah's talent in capturing candid moments and inside jokes that make a couple, a couple, was remarkable. The results speak for themselves; flipping through our photos brings endless smiles and laughter. We wholeheartedly recommend her!

pical posed photos from the day. I wanted to feel something and be transported back to the day - to feel the love, joy, and excitement that we were going to experience. As soon as I saw Hannah’s work, I knew she was the perfect photographer for us! Cory and I are very low key and introverted people, so already having a 150 person wedding felt like a lot. On top of that, I didn’t want to feel constantly on display all day. Looking through Hannah’s portfolio - I could see all the genuine smiles, laughter, and fun being had at each wedding….it was exactly what we were looking for. And boy did she deliver! For starters, having Hannah (and Trevor!!!) at our wedding day just felt like a best friend was tagging along and snapping shots. While we did some classic and posed photos, we kept those to a tight list, and tried to just let Hannah do her thing (which is where the magic happens y'all). Even at our wedding, guests were coming up to us saying what an incredibly cool photographer we have - how she was always getting in the party and finding the fun shots and just doing all the things to capture the essence of the experience. But at the same time…she’s so seamless and non-intrusive, and you don’t really even notice it happening! From the time we booked our contract till the end, Hannah has been so easy and fun to work with. She really managed all the timing and locations and that gave us the space to just feel joy and love on our day. We were able to enjoy the entire experience of our wedding without missing it and being pulled away for photos and portraits. Plus we had so much fun hanging with her! She’s an all around rockstar and if you’re looking for beautiful, fun, natural, and joyous photography…Hannah is your person.

we were at a super fun party having the absolute best time, which is how we felt. The energy and color she's able to capture in her photos is remarkable, and I'm forever grateful. I couldn't think of a better way to document our reception and our time living in the French Quarter.

g for a wedding photographer, we knew that we wanted someone who would capture great photos, but more importantly, one that would capture the realness and the feelings behind those moments. We will never forget our wedding day, and how it felt, and how happy we were (are!) - and that is in large part thanks to Hannah. Our photos are everything we hoped they would be - they made us feel the feels of each moment again, which is the greatest gift. We will cherish them forever. There aren't enough words to express how much we enjoyed working with Hannah and how much these photos mean to us. We can't recommend her enough!!

feels like an old friend rather than your photographer, making it so much easier to be yourself. We can’t recommend her enough!

e felt more happy with how everything turned out! Our photos came out looking elegant and effortlessly gorgeous thanks to her guidance. If you’re thinking of booking her, DO IT! Thank you Hannah!!

he full story. Hire her. ----- I don’t know if I could say enough good things about Hannah, but I will try to focus on the highlights within the bounds of my character limit. First of all, her work is stunning - obviously, when you’re hiring a photographer, the end result matters, and she did such a wonderful job being so thoughtful in getting to know what we were looking for from our photos, communicating about how she approaches, and making she we were a good fit for each other. She had such a great mix of finding tiny, almost imperceptibly subtle moments throughout our day that, when captured by her, became so amplified and beautiful AND finding a way to make the big moments more intimate and personal. She did a wonderful job capturing our joy and our guest's joy and gave us so many wonderful photos that our only real problem is narrowing down the list to get framed. While I think many people love their own wedding photos, I have also heard from so many others that have seen them, both that attended and did not attend, that Hannah’s pictures were some of their favorites they had ever seen. It truly feels like we can relive our wedding from start to finish, but she also did such a good job with lighting and positioning that some of them almost seem like art on their own. I can say with all my heart that you will love your pictures so much if you go with Hannah. Secondly, while I don’t want to put additional pressure on Hannah, I know firsthand how eager people are to get their photos after their wedding. Hannah got us our photos quicker than we expected while still taking the time to edit and curate so well. She clearly works very hard to give her clients a really positive turnaround experience despite the fact that she is in very high demand and has a lot of weddings to shoot. Finally, while the first two are probably the most tangible things to review, I really can’t overstate how much it means to have someone who is fun and puts you at ease throughout the experience. Hannah is so cool and so fun to be around, and that infectious energy that she brings bleeds into the quality of the pictures in addition to just making the day better. While she was focused on taking pictures all night, and we’re happy she was, midway through the night we just wanted her to hang out with us and be one of the guests. We felt like best friends by the end of a couple days. I can’t recommend Hannah emphatically enough. She is so amazing at every step of the way from her communication to her photography to her editing to her follow up. She really takes the responsibility of capturing a once in a lifetime event seriously, and it shows. I’m sure there are many wonderful photographers in New Orleans, but I certainly can’t imagine that any are better than Hannah - we feel incredibly grateful that she was our photographer and can't wait to work with her again any time that we can.

or posed. She is so good at capturing the life of the moment and the joy of the experience. Our pics are gorgeous. Cannot recommend her enough!!!

the camera. She was able to cover multiple locations on our wedding day and rolled with the punches as hiccups came up. We have received so many compliments about our photos and it's no mystery why she's so popular in New Orleans. Couldn't recommend her more highly. She captured genuine joy, so happy we have these photos to look at for years to come!

and couldn’t be more in love with all of our photos and will treasure them for a lifetime. Hannah is so kind and manages to put people at ease to authentically capture moments. We got such a good range of formal portraits, detail shots, and fun candid shots, all infused with creativity, care and humor. The photo editing is perfect; classic and natural. And the entire planning process was clear and smooth. We are so grateful!

, it was like she didn't miss a single thing. Her presence was a welcomed calm in such a fast moving day, and we both felt super at ease having her there to capture our special day. We received a ton of photos and they're all absolutely breathtaking. I cannot recommend her enough!

and the photos make it feel like you are reliving them. She is extremely easy to work with and she creates a lighthearted / stress free environment. I can't recommend Hannah enough, her photos are incredibly beautiful.

ed a photographer that would capture candid and raw moments without “interrupting” that moment, and Hannah did exactly that. We of course have posed shots as well and those are all amazing too! But most importantly (to us), they look natural - Hannah makes it so easy. We had done an engagement shoot with her a year before, and those photos were phenomenal. Once we saw them we knew we had chosen the right photographer for us. She has the most amazing eye for getting the perfect shot and backdrop. We are obsessed with our wedding photos and we are so so grateful we got to work with Hannah. We’d do it all over again!!

omenal job capturing a range of pictures while being respectful and unobtrusive. My husband and I are over the moon with the memories will have from our pictures.

(or worse, non-existent) all that hard work, money, and timeless moments are lost forever. I say this to stress how critical I was during my wedding photographer search. When I saw Hannah’s work, my search ended. I met her the day of the wedding and my only direction for her was, “do your thing”. She was on it. She captured all the sweet, personal, touching moments. The perfect angles. The best expressions. The dancing! Hannah is truly incredible. Looking at our photos takes me right back to the feelings, the love, the butterflies, and the fun of our special day. I can’t say enough how amazing it was getting the opportunity to work with a photographer like Hannah!

ot our gallery back a couple weeks ago, and we're so so happy with how these pictures came out! She really captured the spirit of the event. Thanks, Hannah :)

She is incredibly thoughtful and genuine, and takes the time to get to know both you and your partner. Both Hannah and her assistant, Trevor’s presence during our photoshoot and throughout the wedding made us so comfortable and the results are PERFECTION. Truly everyone who attended our wedding gushes about how amazing her style is and we wish we could work with her again and again. We can’t thank you enough, Hannah!

ents she captured of the venue, our families, and all of the special moments you normally wouldn’t think of were the best surprise.

candids of the reception were SO fun. At the wedding, she was such a great energy to be around. Even though we just met, we felt so comfortable around her. And I am not one that likes getting my picture taken. But we actually had so much fun doing portraits with her Everyone in the wedding enjoyed her. Then, she got the pictures back to us SO quickly. The quickest I have ever seen someone get their photos back. I can't recommend her enough. If you want your wedding photos to be natural, fun, vibey, and stunning, Hannah is your photographer. Her talent is evident. She will deliver you photos that are timeless and just feel like you. She is the best. Can't say enough about her talent!!!

really great eye for the special moments (big and small) and perfectly delivered on our request for more of the candid, unique moments. There isn't enough wall space to hang all the amazing photos she took, thank you Hannah!

tured the energy of each individual wedding. And when we got our photos back, boy oh boy were we so overjoyed with them! She was everywhere yet felt like she was no where at the same time - capturing so many amazing moments when we didn’t even know she was there! She also helped make sure we got all of the family and friends photos, and photos of the two of us. We can’t rave about Hannah any more!

in our home! We're beyond happy to have had Hannah with us throughout the day, so attentive, down to earth and just all around fantastic! Hannah dealt with me with such grace and ease and the day got a little hectic and immediately put my mind at peace. A+++++++++

ur wedding. I loved that she got such awesome in-the-moment shots as well as really nice posed photos -- especially because my husband and I are awful at posing for photos and we much rather candid. Due to covid, we rescheduled our wedding date 3 times and Hannah was so patient and understanding each time. The day of the wedding, she effortlessly floated around working her magic. We didn't do a first look and took photos after the ceremony and Hannah was quick and precise - it was painless. If you're considering Hannah, just do it!!!

le to relive the night through her photos. She beautifully and naturally captured our wedding, catching all the intimate moments and details we missed during the fast-paced night. Her style is raw, candid and artistic. No lame poses. No Pinterest photo check-list. She captures the night as it happens. You can feel the atmosphere and emotion in her photos. Many guests referred to her as a 'ninja' because she was literally all over the place without being intrusive or 'in the way' at all. Not to mention, she's cool as a cucumber and makes YOU feel comfortable. I am a photographer and am certainly prefer being behind the lens, but she made me (and everyone else) feel at total ease. I know this is easier said than done, but if/when you hire Hannah, RELAX and TRUST HER. Just let the woman do her job because man, she knows what she's doing. Hannah, we can't thank you enough. Can't wait for an excuse to hire you again!

grateful to have such beautiful memories of photographs for our keepsake.

y. She was able to make a perfect package for us! During the day of the ceremony, she had a wonderful, unobtrusive approach to the photojournalistic parts and guided us as needed during the portraits to make them fun and believable even though we are stiff and unaccustomed to having our photos taken! She delivered the photos to us at lightening speed because she knew some of our loved ones couldn't be there due to the virus. The images were absolutely stunning. I can't recommend her enough! Thank you, Hannah!

ng. We think her photos speak for themselves. She captured every emotion perfectly (there were a lot that day). We love all of the candid photos. Would 1000% recommend Hannah!

us. If you’ve seen any of Hannah’s work then it’s not necessary for me to elaborate on her talent. We spent weeks searching for a photographer and no one—yall, no one—captures what she can. It’s not even about editing skills (though hers are also unmatched). We wanted someone who captured moments. While we love looking back at our posed pictures, the hundreds of candids in our gallery are the ones that call us to relive our wedding day as truly was. That’s why we had to have Hannah for our wedding, rehearsal dinner, engagement photos, change the dates, and bridal shower. She captured our entire wedding season. And without a doubt we’ll use her for important life events in the future, as well as recommend her to you for yours. Beyond their skills, Hannah and David are wonderful humans. Our communication was always easy. Hannah was so accommodating in rescheduling. She graciously offered us to pay whatever we could towards a change the date session because of the pandemic. Early on when we were trying to book a band, Hannah asked around to other vendors and got a general insider-knowledge consensus for us (D-Play and Funky Monkeys!) which was a perspective we couldn’t get from simply reading online reviews. Any time we asked a question, like her recommendations for what to include in detail shots, we got paragraphs back with her thoughtful expertise. These valuable bits are what you get with Hannah. Not sure if she’s taking applications for new friends or just new clients, but again, we think the very highest of her and David as artists and a human beings. If you follow them on social media, you’ll quickly see their love for their friends, family, and the world we're all trying to navigate in 2020.

ng up to the wedding day itself. She captured the joy and excitement perfectly. There are so many moments that we missed during the ceremony and reception, but she preserved all of them for us and we are so grateful. We highly recommend Hannah for your big day!

t letting us be ourselves. There are so many great shots from our elopement day that it's hard to pick a favorite. Would highly recommend to anyone!

we wanted that for ourselves. We just got our pictures back from our Halloween wedding and we are in awe of the magic she captured. She’s worth every penny and more! You’d be crazy not to have her capture your special day.

mend her!

pictures back. The sneak peeks were enough to get me excited to leave a review for her. From her very first email to me, she was genuine, attentive and organized. I put my complete trust in her and she OVERdelivered. She worked so well with our videographer (Jeff Bush Videography) and took charge without ever coming off demanding or stressful. She made us feel so comfortable and just allowed us to be present with the day. Her style is creative and she gets candid shots that represent you, instead of the usual staged boring wedding photos you always see. I would hire her 100x over and am already thinking of ways to get her back down here! THANK YOU HANNAH!!!!

nded up with *SO* many photos that we're absolutely in love with—both the staged, more formal portraits as well as the super fun, candid party pictures (I rarely, rarely, rarely have come across photographers who can do both so well and effortlessly). Our only issue with Hannah is we have too many pictures we want to frame, use in our albums, share with our friends, etc. etc. Total rockstar—could not recommend more.

as an absolute trooper. Our photos were also stunning. Even my husband who typically hates taking photos was happy to cooperate (also because she works so quickly!). She captured the best candids and pictures of our families and friends just enjoying themselves. She also sent us our photos right on time and we were overjoyed to have them forever.

family and friends. Hannah was fun and easy to work with! She somehow got pictures of everyone and thing without being overly intrusive. SO MUCH LOVE HANNAH!

and emotions of the day. She was very patient in answering all of my questions (even some wedding questions that may not have been relevant to the photography!).. what time of day should the ceremony be for the best light in the area, should we do a first look, and my type A timeline questions. She was very professional, especially in her ability to, when asked, give you her opinion while still ensuring things are really the way you would like them to be. She was a very easy presence and effortlessly and without stress orchestrated any needed pictures that required instruction or coordination. We received our album so quickly and the quality was excellent. Looking through the album truly captured all of the emotions of the day and took us right back. I really underestimated the value our photos would have to me prior to the wedding, but to have all of that hard work, time, love, joy, exuberance, etc captured and documented is priceless. We did go with the second photographer option and were very glad we did, there are some really lovely photos captured of our friends and loved ones during the cocktail hour that are precious to us. And I think our wedding was quite fun, but I can’t say enough about the way Hannah captured the smiles and the laughter making it look the best damn party of 2019! The worst part of my experience has been trying to narrow down which of the amazing pictures to put in my album! Haha. But Hannah has been very helpful even through this, each step of the way!

ou made every step of getting all the details down seem easy and stress free. When we had to change our dressing location last minute, you had no issues. You made Austin and myself feel so comfortable taking photos and OH MY GOD did they turn out beyond beautiful! You truly know how to capture the moments. New Orleans brides and beyond, Hannah is your girl. She is a true gem in the photography world. Thank you again so much, Hanmah! Hopefully we can work with you again!
