Hank is not only a talented and professional photographer, he is also a wonderfully kind human being! His excitement during our engagement shoot was contagious and made it so much more fun. The turnaround time for digital photos from our engagement shoot was so fast and they came out perfectly. We absolutely loved the film photos Hank took as well. Hank has an eye for capturing magical moments and film makes them that much more dreamy! Thank you a million times over, Hank. We are so excited to have you capture moments at our wedding that we will no doubt treasure forever.

Hank did an absolutely exceptional job on my wedding. He went above and beyond to capture every moment I wanted and more. He does amazing with candids and getting pictures with everyone in the moment. He’s so patient and willing to listen and work with whatever ideas and poses you have. 10/10 would recommend over and over again. I’m so happy I chose him to help create memories of my big day.

There are moments in life that define us, that shape us into who we are, and there are people who walk into our lives and change them forever. For me, two such people are Tempest and Bryen. I have been blessed with the opportunity to capture their beautiful wedding and to say that I am grateful would be an understatement. This blog is my way of expressing my gratitude and love for a couple that has etched an unforgettable imprint on my heart.
&nbsp;
From the first moment they hired me to be their wedding photographer, I knew their wedding would be special. And special it was! The wedding took place in a summer camp up in the mountains of New Hampshire, a place close to Bryen&rsquo;s heart as he went there as a kid. The location was not just picturesque but had an emotional connection, making every photograph even more meaningful.
&nbsp;
The day dawned, and the mountains seemed to echo the sentiments of love and joy. As the sun peeked from behind the hills, the camp buzzed with anticipation. The air was filled with laughter, excitement, and a sense of camaraderie that only a place filled with cherished memories can evoke.
&nbsp;
As the bride and groom prepared for their big day, I captured the small moments that often go unnoticed but are the essence of a wedding day- the nervous glances, the shared smiles, the whispered words of love, and the silent promises of a lifetime. Each photograph I clicked was a testament to their love and their journey together.
&nbsp;
The ceremony was beautiful, held against the stunning backdrop of New Hampshire&rsquo;s mountains. As they exchanged vows under the clear sky, surrounded by their family and friends, it felt like time stood still. Their love story unfolded before my eyes, and I was privileged to capture each moment, each emotion.
&nbsp;
The reception was a celebration of love and friendship. As the couple danced under the twinkling stars, their happiness radiated, touching each one of us. The night ended with a promise of a beautiful tomorrow, a new journey for Tempest and Bryen.
&nbsp;
Looking back, I realize that this was not just a wedding; it was a celebration of love, friendship, and childhood memories. It was about two people who loved each other immensely, about their journey together, and their promise of a future filled with love and companionship. I am forever grateful to Tempest and Bryen for letting me be a part of their special day. To say I love them more than anything would be an understatement. They have not just been wonderful clients but are friends who I am incredibly proud of.
&nbsp;
As I share these images with you all, I hope you can feel the love and joy that filled that day. Every picture tells a story, and I am grateful to have been the one to capture these stories. Here&rsquo;s to Tempest and Bryen, to their love, and to their beautiful journey together.

Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team.

"Hi, I’m Hank!
‍
Ever since I first got my hands on my older brother’s camera when I was 12 I’ve been in love with photography. I’m a passionate visual storyteller, and I pride myself on telling an emotionally compelling story full of life and character. I want to tell your story in a way that lets you relive a moment again and again.

My favorite thing about my shoots is connecting with you and seeing your face light up when I show you the back of my camera. Or the rush of adrenaline when everything lines up and we get “the shot”.

When I’m able to tell your story in a way that lets you feel that moment in time again - it's very special to me.

Nothing I do is cookie cutter, everything is geared to you and I spend a lot of time getting you comfortable with me and being in front the camera! Maybe it's going out for lunch before our shoot or just chatting about how you met. I love to spend time getting to know you, hearing your stories and I use that to personalize your experience with me!



‍
But before I get to know you, here’s a few fun facts about me!
‍
-I was on the ski jumping team at my high school       
‍
-When I was 7 I sang in front of 400 people in Cancun, Mexico
‍
-I have a Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award for my volunteer work in DC, given to me by President Obama    
‍
-I’m currently working on my second photography book, “All The Towns In Between,” which is a dive into small town America, capturing the essence of these places before they are forgotten"
