Reviews for hannahelaine photography
Very professional and personable, hannahelaine captures great emotion in her photos. Met with me personally to show me some of her work, consult on what type of photos I was interested in. She has options for photo books or photo guest books. Starts at $1200. Special if you book with her you get $80 off an engagement session (makes it $95)!
Hannah is absolutely phe.nom.e.nal! Not only is she creative and affordable, she is an absolute blast to work with! Every person in my family and wedding party raved about how great she was and that they all wanted to hire her for something. From the very beginning we got along with Hannah famously, she made everything so easy for us....which is a nice breath of fresh air when you are wedding planning! Hannah also did our engagement pictures and ever since then everyone has been eagerly anticipating the wedding pictures - and that's the best part - she is super quick!! Most wedding pictures take over a month to get, Hannah got ours to us in less than two weeks!! And they are more than I could have ever imagined! She captured so much of who my fiancé and I are as well as all the important people there are on our day! I would and will recommend Hannah to brides, families, businesses, anyone who needs a photographer! And we will be hiring Hannah to document all of the big events in our lives from now on! THANKS HANNAH!

Amazing! I could not have asked for a better experience! Hannah was more than I could have hoped for as my photographer... From the very beginning Hannah was able to capture moments that will be forever in our hearts... and also feel like she was apart of the family.. "not just another vendor"... Pictures are the ONE thing that lasts beyond the day... and not just anyone can capture the day like she can!
Hannahelaine photography was better than I could have ever imagined. She traveled from Nashville to Maryland to shoot our wedding. Hannah really captured our wedding in a way that will always come alive to us when we look at the pictures. I couldn't have asked for a better photography. Her pricing is very generous. A steal really. She was a true blessing to us and for that we would recommend her to anyone and everyone. Hannah was extremely easy to work with and a ball of fun to hang out with. She really made our day extra special!
Hannah shot my wedding several months ago. Not only are her pictures far better than any others I've seen but she is easy to work with and affordable.
You'll be hard pressed to find a better photographer in Nashville.
Hannahelaine photography was recommended to me by my maid of honor. I was putting off a photographer because I didn't know exactly what I wanted. I looked at Hannah's website and was immediately excited. Her photograpy is BEAUTIFUL! She truly captures the emotion and character of her subjects! I am so happy she did my engagement pictures and my wedding photos and I love them all! She was so easy to work with and was eagar to capture some slightly untraditional pictures I wanted. She captured moments of the day that I never saw until I got the pictures back. She even has a very fast turn around on getting the pictures back to her clients. Hannah is an amazing photographer and I would recommend her over and over.
Hannah was fantastic! We LOVED our wedding photos and couldn't believe how much of the day, from start to finish, that she captured. She was so much fun to work with-- it was a pleasure to have her right alongside us all day long.
Hannah was a blast to work with! She made us feel so comfortable and made the time fly by while we took hundreds of pictures! She was able to capture the feeling of our wedding - our pictures are a combination of classic wedding photos and her unique and creative style. We love all of them! We can't thank Hannah enough for her amazing work and relaxed professionalism!
AMAZING!!! Hannah just shot my wedding a few weeks ago and I am more than pleased with her and her work!!! Any photographer can be professional and take great photos, but Hannah did so much more! She made us feel completely comfortable working with her! She is one of the BEST up and coming photographers in the Nashville area!!!
Hannah was a pleasure to work with! She did both our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. She was fun and worked well with our friends and family! When we got our photos back, we were fully satisfied!
Absolutely wonderful! I don't think there are enough words to express just how great Hannahelaine photography is. Working with Hannah was a complete dream. She was professional, creative, easy going, reliable - a true artist.
We didn't walk away with ordinary wedding photographs, we walked away with beautiful works of art. Thank you so much! Thank you, thank you!
Our experience with Hannah was fantastic. She was professional and fun, flexible and creative, intuitive AND affordable! She was very eager to give us what we wanted...and it was far better than we could have asked for. So many people have commented on how gorgeous our wedding pictures are. They have made for wonderful art and accent pieces in our home.
If you're looking for a photographer, hannahelaine photography is the only way to go. Hannah was truly wonderful to work with, all the way from the the initial meeting to the engagement photo session to the wedding day. We could not have chosen a better photographer for our wedding! The photographs are incredibly beautiful, artistic, and unique. My husband and I are so thrilled to know we'll have our memories in this beautiful form for the rest of our lives!
Weddings for guys can be a nerve-wrecking experience. There's a lot that goes into it, even when it's small like ours was. But there are so many beautiful things about it. And funny things, too! To me, a good photographer will capture the beauty and humor of a given moment, letting the pictures tell a story. Hannah does exactly that. I've seen a lot of wedding pictures and many just don't do it for me because there is a lack of captured emotion. There are photographers and then there are artists. Hannah is certainly an artist. My bride and I asked for nothing specific at all and now we have quality photos by a talented artist that tell the story of our wedding maybe even better than we can. In my book, photography doesn't really get any better than that. I highly recommend Hannah Elaine Photography. --- j & a
First off, thank you and your partner for shooting my best friend's wedding. I am, by the way, the best man, Travis Dennis. I just got sent a link to preview the photos and I am sitting here like a little boy again crying my eyes out. You two did a great job....just great. Just wanted to let you guys know how professional and just plain awesome y'all were. Great shots! Can't wait to see the shot of me and jason with the cigars....Please let me know when y'all are done with the photos. I am sure jason and laura will be paying for the shooting and their photos...but I would be interested in purchasing some professional prints for myself and my home :-) THANKS SO MUCH AGAIN.....Best Wedding Photographers I've Seen!!!!!!!
Hannah was great! We used her for our engagement photos as well as our wedding! The quality and attention to detail she had really made both sets of photos great. She will definitely be our photographer for life!
friendly and energetic, obliging and discreet. photographer who will approach any event as a chance at making art, not just as a job.
Hannah is total professional. From photography, versatility, and even hanging around with her, you get the sense that she is created to be a great photographer.
Hannah's shots are unique in that she's able to capture the source, the group, the individual, with great accuracy, but also with great depth.
Her ideas are up there with the infamous jump photographs from the 60's. Her versatility and creativeness as a photographer take the mundane out of the stereotypical "photo session" and make it into somewhat of an art form. She rarely does the same thing twice, she tries new things to get character out of people and onto film.
I don't know if she's posted photos for one of the last weddings that she did. Hannah included in her photo shoot large picture frames that the guests used for the photo hour. From the photos that I saw I believe that the idea caused several of the people to display characteristics of themselves on camera that they just would not have if the circumstance had been more simple and less creative.
Hannah is a pleasure to work with. She is funny and provocative. Yes she has ideas. Yes they are great. She is a great friend, and I hope that you get the chance to work with her.

titans fans!Franklin Road Academy fundraiser 2010

last night i had the pleasure of shooting the fundraiser event "stars and guitars" for Franklin Road Academy. i shot the event last year via a connection i had from a trip with Sweet Sleep in '08 and was so pleased to be asked back this year to shoot again. This year the event was held at the ever fab Loveless Barn -- i LOVE this place (and their biscuits)!! this is my 2nd time shooting there and i've just this past week been talking with a bride about shooting her wedding there this year. yessssss....

hatch show print -- you make everything magical.
i LOVE the light in this tent. rotating lights with customized gobos. it seriously added such a great feeling to the atmosphere. lights will make or break ya!


look at the lines for this silent auction! i thought things were gonna come to blows between folks on a few of these items! it was great!
wedding planning preview numero dos
thinking about doing something like this for the program. didn't really want a program but 2 things made me realize i needed one: 1) the reception location is far from the ceremony location so directions in print are a must, and 2) acapella hymn singing will be involved so it might be nice if people had the words available. i'll be working this weekend on the design for this project....just a few wedding inspirations....

i'm constantly blogging about everyone else's wedding. with the winter being a bit slow for shooting and, now that i'm planning my own wedding, i thought i could share a few (perhaps slightly cryptic) blurbs about it.

the original plan was to have the reception in a barn or similar type rustic location. that just didn't work out. so we've chosen a customs house from the 1800's now-turned-museum. kind of opposite ends of the spectrum. but i'm using things like these lanterns to tie in the rustic theme of the ceremony which is taking place in front of this awesome tim burton-esque church:
