About

I’m Hannah, originally from the south-east coast of Australia, now based in London. I’ve been photographing for nearly a decade and working in the sex industry for five years, so I know what your photos need to do, and exactly which angles get them there.

I started in fashion journalism, documenting street style: stopping strangers, getting them talking, and capturing what made their style their own. That shaped everything about how I work. My practice is rooted in documentary. I photograph what’s in front of me, and I take the time to understand who that is. Then I use pose, light and composition to make the picture say it.

I work across documentary and fashion editorial, and I bring both to every shoot: the patience to see someone properly, and the craft to make it look like a campaign. Storyboards, moodboards and world-building are where I start. Your persona is where we finish.

Too often this world gets photographed as a costume or a curiosity. I started Pretty Perverse to change that, and to make work that platforms the people in it by name.
