Emotion Surfers

Authentic Love Magazine

As time went on, I fell in love with the art of it. The way you can manipulate light, play with composition, and tell a story through an image—it amazed me. And I started to realize how important each stage of life is, even the messy ones, because they shape who you are today and where you’re going. I believe God has a plan for everyone, and when you trust in that plan, you can look back on your life and see how far you’ve come.

Now, I get to be a part of capturing those moments for other people. It’s not just about the photos—it’s about the memories, the emotions, the stories. And even more rewarding is teaching others how to do the same, helping them make an impact in someone else’s life through something as simple, but as powerful, as a photograph. That’s why I started, and it’s why I keep going.

I’ll be honest—I never thought I was the creative type. I used to work in sports, and I loved it. Diagnosing injuries, helping people rehab—it felt so rewarding. But the long hours and the situations I got thrown into? Let’s just say they burned me out real fast. I was done. I needed something different, something lighter.

When I started photography, I had no clue what I was doing. I just knew I loved capturing happy moments for other people. At the time, I was struggling mentally—there was a lot of abuse happening in my life—but photography gave me an escape. It let me focus on the good, like the love, the laughter, and the little celebrations I saw through my lens. Even when my own life felt heavy, I could see the positives, and that kept me going.

My Story

How I turned a happy accident into a thriving photography community

and what I can do for You!

What I do

Photography, at its core, is deeply personal, and I don’t take that lightly. I started this business because I wanted to help people see the beauty in their story and in themselves. I know what it’s like to feel less-than—how one bad life experience or one unflattering photo can ruin your confidence. But I also know the power of being captured in a moment of pure joy, surrounded by love, or doing something that feels true to you.

For me, it’s all about being present and intentional—not just in life, but in how I show up for you. I want to connect with your story so your photos feel like more than just snapshots—they feel like you. When you’re in front of my camera, my priority is making you feel comfortable, seen, and totally yourself. It’s the real, raw moments that matter most.

My Philosophy

I love people watching and noticing the little gestures and imperfect moments that make life feel so real. Like the way couples interact in public (guessing how long they’ve been together is my go-to game lol), how my husband romanticizes every aspect of our life, or how every season brings its own unique beauty and emotions that feel both nostalgic and timeless.

I didn’t always notice these things—at least not until I picked up a camera. I know it sounds cringe, but seeing the world through a literal lens completely shifted my perspective. It made me slow down and find beauty in the everyday—the unbrushed hair, the worn-out books, the art that has you thinking, wtf, I could’ve made that, the people, the old movies from the ’50s and ’60s that are wildly problematic now but still somehow classics, the music, and the colors that make life vibrant and full.

That’s what I want to do for you: to capture the beauty in your story, just as it is, and show you how extraordinary your everyday really is.

Inspiration

I love gardening, even though most of my plants don’t survive, but the veggies I’ve got growing? Absolute legends. At home, I’m usually with Libby, my 9-year-old beagle mix, or cooking—because yes, I am a good cook, I just tend to go heavy on the seasoning (apparently garlic powder is my love language). My day-to-day is a mix of travel, education, and running my business solo from the couch, always with the TV on for background noise. And let’s not forget dad jokes—they’re my specialty, and I’ll definitely ask, “Did you get it?” just to make sure I didn’t miss your laugh.

the woman behind the brand

When we started looking for a photographer, we wanted someone who could capture the real, authentic moments—nothing too posed or forced. From the first meeting, we knew Han was the perfect fit. She made us feel so comfortable, like we’d known her forever. On the wedding day, she was everywhere but somehow invisible, catching every tear, every laugh, and even the quiet moments we didn’t notice at the time. When we saw our gallery, we were blown away. It wasn’t just photos—it was our story, told so beautifully. We’ll cherish these forever and couldn’t recommend her more.

Harper & Liam

We are still in awe of the photos and how perfectly they captured our day. Hannah has an incredible eye for detail and a gift for making every shot feel personal. From the little moments—like my mom fixing my dress—to the big ones, like our first kiss as husband and wife, she didn’t miss a thing. What stood out most was her ability to make us feel so at ease. It was like having a friend by our side who just happened to have a camera in her hand. She truly made our day even more special, and now we have the most beautiful memories to look back on.

Sophia & James

We’re honestly speechless when it comes to describing how amazing our experience was. She was so much more than a photographer—she was a calming presence, a hype woman, and somehow always in the right place at the right time. Neither of us loves being in front of a camera, but she made it feel so easy and natural. When we got our gallery, it felt like flipping through a perfectly curated love story, with us as the main characters. Every image brought us right back to the emotions of that day. It’s something we’ll treasure forever.

El & Ryan

Where do we even start? She went above and beyond in every single way. From helping us with the timeline to making sure every detail was captured, she was an absolute dream to work with. On the day of the wedding, she had this calming energy that put everyone at ease, even during the chaos. The photos were beyond what we imagined—every smile, every happy tear, every stolen glance—it’s all there. She captured the real us, and we couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly gets it, look no further. She’s simply the best.
