ABOUT LAURA HATCHER
Hello! I\'m Laura Hatcher, a nationally published photographer based in Northern Virginia. I\'m passionate about capturing compelling stories through event, headshot, and branding photography. My path to becoming a full-time photographer is a bit unique – it all began as a hobby during my active duty service in the United States Navy.After I retired in 2018, I quickly discovered that working for others after being institutionalized my entire adult life, is highly overrated. So I traded my uniform for a camera and opened a charming photography studio in the heart of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. I\'m embracing my second career, not just as a photographer, but also as an instructor, mentor, and entrepreneur.I\'ve had the pleasure of working with a diverse range of clients, from the Military Officers Association of America to the City of Alexandria and Texas A&M\'s Bush School. You might also find me teaching photography and business workshops privately or with other organizations; I\'m all about paying it forward.Beyond my client work, I\'m deeply committed to supporting my Veteran community. I provide specialized headshot and military ceremony photography, and I\'m dedicated to mentoring Veterans, students, and business owners in my community. I\'m incredibly proud of the recognition I\'ve received for these efforts, including the 2025 Veteran Affairs Center for Women Veterans Trailblazer Award.Certifications: SWaM, SDVOSB, VOSB, WOSB, Part 107 Remote Pilot email: l••••@laurahatcherphotography.comphone: 20••••••44website:
