“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever…it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”

The {name} hanle

A lot of people ask me, “What’s with the name?”

The name hanle was created late one night back in 2004, the house was quiet and Brittany was asleep (I know this sounds cheesy- oh well I like cheese). The name came to her in a dream, like all her creative ideas. Her dear Papa Hanson had just passed away and shortly after Grandpa Le Gare passed away as well. She loved them dearly and wanted to remember them always. Papa Hanson inspired Brittany’s love for photography, giving her his old film camera and showing her how it worked, he was a photographer and an artist at heart…always dinking around in the dark room and filming the grandkids. This is how the name was born…
