Welcome to Hannah Layne


Welcome to Hannah Layne Photography! I'm Hannah, a photographer based in the beautiful San Francisco East Bay Area. My journey into photography began during my career in marketing, where I discovered a passion for editing images to align with corporate branding. That passion quickly grew as I started capturing my own branding shots.


After becoming a mom, I had a revelation—I was always behind the camera and never in our family photos (and to be honest, I still often am not!). This sparked a deep desire to offer affordable family photography to my community because I believe every family deserves to have their cherished moments beautifully captured. I’m here to help you create lasting memories with images that reflect the love and uniqueness of your family.


I keep my prices affordable by managing all bookings personally, versus through a program, having slightly extended turnaround times to accommodate my full time career, and only offering limited availability. But if you're flexible, I promise I will provide you and your family some beautiful memories.


In addition to family photography, I also offer corporate and professional headshots, event photography, branding sessions, and commissioned landscape photography. Whether it's capturing your business image or a special moment, I'm excited to work with you to create stunning visuals. Let's capture something beautiful together!


"Hannah was extremely supportive and her creative eye led to some great photos. I was nervous to put myself in front of the camera but her warmth and enthusiasm immediately put me at ease. She made me feel confident and beautiful in a vulnerable moment and I couldn't be happier with the end product."
