About

Hi y’all! I'm Hannah Woodard Lockaby of Hannah Lockaby Photo (formerly Hannah Woodard Photography.)

If you’re looking for dreamy and romantic wedding photography with a focus on capturing honest, candid moments, you’ve come to the right place.

When we shoot a wedding, my assistants and I adopt a semi-photojournalistic style. Translation: Other than formal portraits, we do our best to simply document the gorgeousness that is your wedding day, without over-directing you or forcing you into cheesy poses, etc. Even while we’re shooting some portraits of the two of you, we’ll focus on helping the two of you feel relaxed, comfortable and happy – because the most beautiful photos are the most natural ones. We want you to enjoy the time you have together, without feeling like you’re in the middle of an eight-hour-long photoshoot.

Wedding photography is truly my passion. It’s such an honor to be allowed into such an emotional, beautiful day on such an intimate level, and there’s really no subject more beautiful than people in love surrounded by the people who mean the most to them.

If you feel that my approach lines up with your vision for your wedding photography needs, please contact us and let’s start making something together!

Incredible Photographer

Hannah was truly incredible to work with! She was very responsive to all of my questions before I hired her and kept up great communication throughout our engagement photos, welcome party and wedding day. She was very open to our ideas, and had very creative ideas of her own! She just sent us a sneak peek of our wedding day and we are in love with every photo. Couldn’t recommend her more!

Hannah and her husband, Ryan, make the most fabulous photography/videography team! From day one, she is quick to respond to emails and accommodate anything you need - even downloading Skype to "meet us" #OutOfTownCouple. On the day of the wedding, they became part of our wedding party. Their fun, sweet personality makes you WANT to spend the day with them, and they quickly send previews to share with friends and family after your big day. Oh and by the way, their work is absolutely stunning! If you love gorgeous details and even more gorgeous photos, you need to work with Hannah and Ryan! xoxo

I could not have asked for a better photographer for my wedding day. Hannah and her husband Ryan are truly fantastic. Hannah was always quick to respond to my emails from the very beginning and throughout the entire time leading up to (and after) the wedding. She was so patient with me and my crazy schedule, too. Also, in the beginning, she and Ryan met up with me at the venue months before the wedding to talk in person and go over details. Hannah even braved inclement weather to ensure we did bridal portraits on the only day I could make it into town the last few months before the wedding. On the wedding day, Hannah and Ryan were subtle while they worked and got the job done (and did it extremely well!). And just when I thought things couldn't get any better, they brought out a drone for some seriously awesome aerial shots! Our wedding photos turned out absolutely amazing. Seriously, stunning. Hannah is so talented! We were so impressed and would highly recommend trusting Hannah and Ryan with your special day.

Side note: We also used their videography services, and I am so glad we did! We received a beautifully crafted highlight video of the day as well as the full ceremony and toasts. We will cherish having these live-action memories for the rest of our lives!

Hannah and her husband Ryan shot our engagement photos and wedding and they were amazing! She was so easy to work with throughout the process and finished both sets of photos SO fast. They are so beautiful and I feel like they really captured our personalities. They also took so many great photos of our guests that showed how fun the party was. They recently started offering wedding videos as well, which we decided to add kind of last minute. Our video is AMAZING. This is a more affordable option than hiring a separate videographer and I really don't think a separate team could have done a better job!

I can't recommend Hannah and her husband, Ryan, enough! She and Ryan make a wonderful photography team and they are so great together! Hannah is extremely responsive and answered all my correspondence within a timely, profession and kind manner. She had our engagement photos and wedding photos to us sooner than I ever expected, and our photos are outstanding. I am so thankful that I found HWP and will cherish my wedding photos for a lifetime. She and her husband are excellent to work with, open to suggestions and do an amazing job of telling a story through photographs. I wish I had better words to recommend them, but I could never do them justice! You will not be disappointed!

Hannah is the best photographer! She and her husband Ryan work together seamlessly to create the most beautiful images! Plus, they make you feel comfortable the entire time like you're born to be in front of the camera! Hannah has a magic eye and it was great seeing her form ideas in her head and execute them perfectly. Hannah is receptive to any ideas you might have and takes time to really get to know you and the type of wedding/aesthetic you've dreamed of so she can make your dream a reality! So many people have commented on how great the pictures are, but also how Hannah is able to capture some of the sweetest candid moments that make you feel like you're reliving the day every time you scroll through the pictures. Hannah is so easy to work with - she isn't pushy and she doesn't overly direct you or make you feel uncomfortable. She and Ryan were in all the right places without us even knowing they were there! We couldn't have chosen better photographers for our wedding day and I would recommend Hannah Woodard Photography to anyone!

Hannah and her husband, Ryan, make the most wonderful team of photographers. I loved her pictures aesthetic from the moment I saw her website, but when I saw my photos I couldn't believe it! The are the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. I feel like my bridal portraits were shot for a magazine or a pinterest spread. Hannah is such a fun and caring person to work with and was always so excited about our wedding. She encouraged all of my ideas and I never felt like a burden for requesting we try something. The day of the wedding she was a calming presence and very fun in the midst of getting ready. She was also very flexible with me and very responsive and flexible since I was planning everything via email from France and Australia where I lived during my USA wedding prep. I would HIGHLY recommend Hannah to anyone searching for a wedding photographer or a photographer for any other occasion! Gorgeous photos, gorgeous people.

Hannah was an absolutely incredible wedding photographer! Even before the big day, she was always quick to respond to emails and very helpful with any questions. On the day, she was very professional, mindful of timing and made sure we got as many shots as we needed. I highly recommend her to any bride. Thank you Hannah!!

AMAZING! I'm so glad we found Hannah for our engagement and wedding photos. She is a incredible photographer and so wonderful to work with. She was very responsive throughout the booking process and really took the time to understand our preferences for photos even down to details like family dynamics. On the day of the wedding she had a great calming presence that really helped me relax and enjoy myself. Her photos were outstanding and we were so happy with how they turned out. We love looking at them because they captured the atmosphere of the day so well. Not to mention the fact that she edited them and got them to us quickly. In summary, I would highly highly recommend Hannah!
