Let me guess, you saw my name and your thoughts were likely to be how the heck do you pronounce “Aitchess” and what does that mean?! Well, it’s a long story but rather simple really. I went most of my life without having a real nickname. I swore I’d give my kids names with “built-in” nicknames, and I did. The story really starts when I met my now husband Brian. He was going by the nickname “B” and once he decided to call me ”H” we discovered it is actually the only letter with a true spelling in the dictionary. Aitch. So I started going by Aitch and when I started a business I wanted to reflect me and my personality I decided to go with my initials “H-S” spelled out as Aitch-Ess. So Aitchess Photography was born. I hope it reflects the fun, colorful, unique soul that I have and that my photography captures your unique souls and stories!
Enjoy and treasure every moment,
HS
