About The SIsters

Meet the August Sisters, Hannah and Sara-Anne Waggoner—two creative sisters born in August with a passion for designing unique, handmade accessories. From the start, their vision was bigger than just making jewelry—it was about building a brand and a career they love. What began in their kitchen quickly grew, leading them to establish a dedicated creative studio where their inspiration comes to life.

But their creativity doesn’t stop there! In addition to designing handcrafted jewelry, they offer content creation and marketing services through August Sisters Studio, specializing in engaging short-form videos, UGC videos, ASMR videos, product photography, video and product editing, as well as creative and art direction for social media and websites.

At The August Sisters, self-expression is at the core of everything we do. We’re not just here to sell products—we want to inspire individuality and celebrate what makes each person unique. Our customers’ creativity fuels us, and we love showcasing their personal style. Our goal is to create an experience where everyone feels welcome, supported, and empowered to express themselves freely—whether through our products, creativity, or the connections we build along the way.

Hannah is a digital marketer, designer, and social media manager based in Chattanooga, TN. With a background in fine arts and a marketing degree from UAGC, she blends creativity with strategy to help brands stand out. Her passion for aesthetics extends beyond design—she became a licensed Esthetician in 2018, reflecting her deep appreciation for beauty in all forms. Creativity runs in her family, passed down through generations of artistic women, shaping her unique eye for style and branding.

During high school, Hannah discovered her love for handmaking and began sewing her clothes. Her great-grandmother, a skilled seamstress, passed down this art to her.

Driven by her passion for creativity and business, Hannah launched her first venture, HanMade Maker, where she collaborated with clients to design and create custom pieces, including bridesmaid dresses, elegant formalwear, and wedding gowns. However, she ultimately wanted to work alongside her sister, Sara-Anne. The two creatives joined forces and established their brand, The August Sisters, bringing their shared dream to life.

“I always dreamed of owning my own company, and getting to do it with my sister is truly a dream come true. Our mother taught us to embrace our uniqueness and follow our own path—and that’s exactly what we do. We love standing out and making a statement with bold accessories. Growing up wearing school uniforms only fueled our passion for self-expression through fashion, shaping us into the vibrant women we are today. Colors bring us joy, and we fully embrace them in everything we create.”

Sara-Anne is an artist living and working in Chattanooga, TN. She graduated from The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a BFA in Photo Media Arts. She works with the mediums of photography, set design, filmmaking, and accessory design. In her work, themes of surrealism, time, multiple realities, and beauty creates a juxtaposition between distress and confusion, nostalgia and memory, past and present. 

Having collaborated with renowned musicians such as Lola Kirke, Talia Stewart, TAELA, Love You Later, Nordista Freeze, Seint Monet, Bindy, Marisa Maino, and many others, Sara-Anne has made a notable impact in the music industry. Her contributions range from album art and promotional materials to captivating Spotify Canvas designs, enhancing the visual representation and branding of these musicians.

In addition to her work with musicians, Sara-Anne has embraced the world of product photography, specializing in creating visually captivating imagery with smaller-scale set designs. Her meticulous attention to detail, honed through her background in set design, allows her to craft compelling visual narratives that elevate the presentation of various products.

Driven by a passion for collaboration, Sara-Anne continues to push the boundaries of her artistic pursuits. Whether it's through her photography, set design, product photography, videography, or short-form video production, she consistently delivers high-quality visuals that captivate audiences, tell compelling stories, and elevate the brands and musicians she collaborates with.
