I am SO happy to see you here!
I'm Hannah, originally from the flattest corner of northern Germany (where the highest "mountain" near my hometown was a highway overpass, not joking), I discovered mountains a little later in life, but once I did, there was no going back.
After a fair amount of travelling, a lucky coincidence brought me to Canada in 2023, where I traded the marketing hamster wheel for the Canadian Rockies.
After spending years working in brand marketing, I eventually realized I wanted to build a life that felt a little more like me. Somewhere along the way, I found my way back into photography, and today I get to combine both worlds in a way that makes perfect sense.
You'll usually find me somewhere on a trail, backpack on, camera in hand, happily stopping every few minutes because the light is beautiful, a tiny flower caught my eye, or, my personal favourite, there's a pika nearby (you'll understand once you watch a pika carrying flowers that are somehow twice its size around).
Mountains are where I slow down, recharge, and feel most inspired. Spending so much time outdoors has also made protecting these places incredibly important to me. Whether I'm hiking, photographing, or working with brands, I always try to leave things a little better than I found them.
As a photographer, my biggest goal isn't just creating beautiful images, it's creating an experience you'll genuinely enjoy. I want you to leave thinking, "That was so much fun, I barely even noticed we were taking photos."
I'd love for it to feel like you're spending the day outside with a friend who just happens to have a camera. I'll guide you when you need it, but there won't be any awkward posing, forced smiles, or pressure to be anything other than yourselves.
The funny thing is, my work in marketing isn't all that different.
I bring over 10 years of brand marketing experience to work with brands and small businesses across industries and I just love digging into what makes a brand different, finding the stories that often hide in plain sight. Whether I'm photographing people or helping a small business tell its story, I'm doing the same thing: noticing what already makes someone unique and helping others see it too. Sometimes that's the connection between two people, and sometimes it's the story behind a brand.
Either way, I really believe that when people enjoy the process, you can feel it in the final result.
If any of this made your heart beat a little faster: let's go on an adventure together. 🫶

even though my account is not dedicated to photography, you'll get an idea of who I am, my eye for details and what goes on on my mind.

![I thought no way its possible to squeeze all this into one day, but we did, and it didn‘t even feel rushed 😍
Usually, I’m the person who spends hours on a trail or happily sits at one spot way longer than necessary 😂 So it was actually pretty cool to do this differently for once: not drive myself, not worry about parking, and simply get to take in the beauty of those 4 iconic spots in the rockies.
[ad] the tour is called the Big 3 Sightseeing Tour, because it takes you to three of the Rockies’ most turquoise lakes. But I mean… technically it’s a Big 4, because you also get to stop at the absolutely massive Takakkaw Falls 👀😊
I’ve been on a few trips with Big Nature by now, and I genuinely never get tired of saying how great this local tour company is. These guys know their backyard VERY well, and I love that the experience isn’t just about ticking off pretty viewpoints. You actually learn a ton about the area, its history, wildlife and everything you’re seeing along the way. The only „downside“, if you wanna call it that, is: not not enough time in each spot, because there is never enough time to soak it all in 😍
and by the way, even if you’re a local, I swear you’ll learn something new with these guys 😊
The season is slowly coming to an end, but there’s always next year ☺️ If you’re planning to finally visit these spots next year, you can save 10% on your booking with the code HANNAH10 💛](https://instagram.ftlv23-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t51.82787-15/810867736_18624680377019981_6754233967875092598_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=100&_nc_map=urlgen_bucketless&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiQ0FST1VTRUxfSVRFTS5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=9Hrv5sDRlnEQ7kNvwGVu33X&_nc_oc=AdraK8Y-jpPifS17ZERnj8UhS-Vbb092X3JMsOPcxq4mO6IjCRTn_GBQrratyCADSiE&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=instagram.ftlv23-1.fna&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=SfpKYVkQwNvV1_AuowYSyQ&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQIohcAXQ1J2xQyemFfZznjFBCLMvc1tyqKwPoh-yj4N5QfaobMMWx1JVEYf2YL8tJrAnzhwvIYX&oh=00_AQNT217fjR0PCnsE-4PTBJABzN8xdzTZsSRbNKcLw6ydWg&oe=6AC76FC3)
















![a day for the jam jar🫙🥹
In Germany, we have this lovely little expression: Marmeladenglas-Momente, which translates to “jam jar moments”
The idea is that you collect those little moments that are too beautiful, funny or special to forget and put them in an imaginary jam jar to keep for later ☺️
And this day with @bignature.adventures definitely gave me a few that deserve a spot in my jar. From all the views, experiencing the unreal landscape, the stories our Guide told us about the place, allll the little details, conversations, the pikas, and simply being out there with a bunch of wonderful people gave me a loooot of jam to fill my jar 🥰
Definitely one of those days I’ll want to open the jar for again someday 🫙😍

[ad] By the way, if you always wanted to go to Lake O’Hara and never got lucky with shuttle tickets, you may want to have a look at the guided hike with @bignature.adventures for 2027. Bookings are not open yet but you can add your name to the waitlist ☺️](https://instagram.ftlv23-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t51.82787-15/775995731_18614693563019981_8811938927671131624_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=103&_nc_map=urlgen_bucketless&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiQ0FST1VTRUxfSVRFTS5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=nsdTVtdd9wwQ7kNvwFZkcli&_nc_oc=Ado51Kn391x8IKacRdOd1tI7naRODgXNKro6ib2JW-Nr5bWsSdUYq6-2kJEKvc-5kbo&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=instagram.ftlv23-1.fna&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=SfpKYVkQwNvV1_AuowYSyQ&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQJloopucgABjNZ0waJZcP7f8Q4sfHVQUuaKHCdFTS1JfAQlacaSlt-N2kORj46D9RKAoxf9bVy1&oh=00_AQOFPbn5VqAhPL2jRtjWELUEm4vU54DThkyVwUo4Y9mE_A&oe=6AC75D08)
