‘Salt Spring Island’ (where I live and work from) has been part of the traditional unceded territory of the Hul'qumi’num- and SENĆOŦEN-speaking peoples since time immemorial. These tribes and nations include but may not be limited to: Penálaxeth’ (Penelakut), Quw’utsun (Cowichan), Stz’uminus (Chemainus), SȾÁUTW (Tsawout), W̱JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip), BOḰEĆEN (Pauquachin), W̱SIḴEM (Tseycum), and MÁLEXEȽ (Malahat).
I am a mother, early childhood educator, and most importantly to you, a passionate photographer on Salt Spring Island. I adore capturing meaningful moments and images that matter to my clients. Warm, clear, and colourful photos are what I tend to produce. If you like vibrant photos and candid moments alongside those traditionally posed images, and a photographer who is flexible and easy-going, you'll probably love my work. Variety and new challenges are always welcome propositions. Let me know if you have a vision and I'll do my best to help you realize it.
As exploring is something that calls to me, I’m always open to chatting about capturing something beyond my typical reach of Salt Spring Island, BC and Southern Vancouver Island, or even outside of Canada. Having worked closely with various tourism-focused projects around the Southern Gulf Islands, myself and my partner (a licensed drone pilot) are always eager to support projects for sustainable, regenerative, and educational travel projects within British Columbia and the wider world.
Thank you for considering me in your search for a photographer! I’m excited to hear from you about how I can help bring to life beautiful images just for you.

"Hannah took wonderful photos for my son's graduation. I was looking for an alternative to school studio-type photos. We ended up with a series of amazing photos that included beautiful shots of my son in his suit as well as family photos. To make it even more special, Hannah and I decided on one of our favourite island locations. Highly recommend taking this alternative for beautiful photos of your grad. I'll treasure them always!"

"We are so glad we chose Hanna Spray Photography for a photoshoot to capture our shop for an upcoming advertisement in a local magazine. While Hannah was here at our shop it was like a good visit rather than work that was being done. We were inviting her into our world and she was comfortable as a guest could be. She had a camera in her hands she gave us a lot of engaging interactive clicks. And after a while, we forgot about the camera and just started chatting. With regards to the social distance, she rais"

"I have had the pleasure of working with Hannah on two very special occasions. First on my wedding day and second when I was expecting baby #3 and wanted to capture some precious moments with my family and big belly! She did an amazing job. She was very thorough, making sure to get all the shots I might want and more! She’s so easy going and comfortable to be around, great at getting the kids to focus and the photos are gorgeous!"

"We had a great photo session with Hannah. We're both camera shy and she immediately put us at ease. Hannah spent a ton of time with us, the experience never felt rushed. She's got a great eye, I can't begin to explain how amazing each photo turned out! If you're looking to capture a special moment, I would highly recommend Hannah Spray Photography!"

"Hannah is such a pleasure to work with. We had our first family photoshoot with our 4 month old and her relaxed and fun attitude was so appreciated. She had a lot of great ideas for different shots to try which was also great. When I received the photo gallery it was like getting an early Christmas present, there were so many dreamy captures to choose from. I'm so happy that I don't have to shop around for another photographer when I need updated photos, so nice to find a gem like Hannah on my first try. Wo"

""Hannah shot our family photos and was a blast! She took beautiful photos that we love and will treasure forever. Hannah took amazing natural candids but also gave us direction and help when needed so that we could get those perfect shots. I would recommend Hannah to everyone and can't thank her enough for our lovely keepsakes.""

I hold deep gratitude to live and work on this land, which is unceded (stolen) Coast Salish territory, where the Hul'qumi'num- and SENĆOŦEN-speaking peoples have tended the lands and surrounding waters since time immemorial. I am continually seeking to do better in how I walk on this land as a descendent of my settler ancestors. May I remain open to correction when I make a misstep, and may I be an active agent for solidarity in repairing and honouring our connections to each other, our histories and cultures, and the land.
