Reviews from the couples and planners I have worked with, from the Merrimon-Wynne House in Raleigh to Charleston, Lucca and Lake Garda.
Kind Words
Weddings are important and something you spend months planning to try to make “perfect”: which details to add, what will make it memorable for guests, how to allocate your budget, where to rein in expectations, etc. A single day with a ton of thought. What do you have to remember the day by after it’s over? Only pictures and videos. Hannah and her work make your day last forever. I wanted pictures that I could put on my wall, not my refrigerator. I wanted to remember the laughs I had with my guests and the looks I shared with my husband. I wanted art! The emotions, details, moments, glances, movement, and love that she is able to capture is amazing. Her photos romanticize your day in the best possible way! We had our wedding in Raleigh, NC at The Merrimon-Wynne House, and she captured it beautifully. If I am going to rave about / recommend any wedding vendor, it will be Hannah. I don’t write reviews, but I will for this!

Working with Hannah was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the start, we loved the way her work blends an editorial eye with a documentary feel. We wanted photos that looked polished but still felt natural and full of light, and she captured that beautifully. On the day itself, Hannah was such a calming presence. She was relaxed but still organized, which made everything feel easy. I also really appreciated how she struck the right balance between giving us direction when we needed it and letting the candid moments unfold. I’m not a natural poser, but she made me feel so comfortable and confident. When we got our gallery back, it was almost overwhelming in the best way because there were so many incredible photos to choose from. She caught the sweet moments, the funny ones, and everything in between. We’ll be reliving our wedding weekend through these images for years to come. Hannah also went above and beyond. I knew she would be at our welcome party, but she surprised us by taking some really sweet photos at the rehearsal too. That extra thoughtfulness meant so much to us. She is professional, creative, and such a hard worker. Most importantly, she gave us photos that we will treasure forever. We’re so grateful to her for capturing our day in such a beautiful, meaningful way.

There are truly no words to translate the emotions my husband and I went through while looking through our wedding gallery. Instead of words, I think this story is the greatest summary of Hannah’s work and what she does for others. Coming back into our normal routine of work and hanging out with friends, we always get asked two questions: “What was something you were thrilled you did for the wedding?” “Is there anything you regretted?” And funny enough, Hannah was the answer to both questions. I love telling people that securing Hannah’s availability to shoot our wedding was the very first thing we did, before even booking the venue! I will forever advocate for choosing the right photographer when it comes to emotionally meaningful events. What do I regret? Not booking her for the entire weekend!! I think about it now, and I know she would’ve captured our love story leading up to the big day so beautifully. I can soulfully and wholeheartedly say she delivered ART. There are images and facial expressions of myself and my loved ones that I have never seen before: so raw, emotional, and real. If this is what she has done for me, I can only imagine all the hearts she has touched throughout her journey. Hannah has such an undeniable way of making couples feel truly seen, and I can’t thank her enough for the “heirlooms” she has given us.

WOW! Hannah not only delivered the most incredible service in her art as an accomplished photographer but she quickly became a guest at our wedding. Her kindness and dedication to her craft was noticeable with all our guests. She was incredibly talented and very appropriate in her timing to “get the shot”. She understood the magnitude of our experience and capitalized on every moment to capture a memory that we will forever cherish. She was very prepared for the assignment after our initial introduction when going over all our requests. She has a brilliant eye for all current trends with tone, theme, motion, placement etc. She offers a very elevated variety of services. Her full use of our venue in all that it offered demonstrated her preparedness for this assignment. Her post edits are equally as impressive as her initial photos themselves. She was very generous in her “teaser” dump of edited photos before receiving all edits. Her platform that allows photos to be navigated and saved to device was very user friendly. Look no further if you’re looking for an incredibly professional photographer that is elevated above most.

Let me start by saying that Hannah Rosser is wizard-level talented packaged in the most lovely and calming presence possible. She deserves all the raving credit she receives x a million!!!!! Hannah was our dream photographer as we began the wedding planning process and she did everything and more to make it possible for our vision to come through. She offered helpful guides and support that went well beyond the service of photography, it truly felt like I had an expert friend available for all my (many) questions. On the day of the wedding, Hannah blended into the party so seamlessly and made photos feel effortless, which was exactly what we were hoping for when envisioning our experience. She stunningly captured big moments, small ones, and all those nestled in between. Hannah has the ability to preserve once in a lifetime emotions in the most beautiful vessels. Her artistic lens is truly one of a kind and each and every one of the photos we were provided are genuine pieces of art. We’ve received outstanding feedback from friends and family who have access to our gallery and it’s been such an honor to gift these loved ones with such invaluable mementos from our special day. Hannah Rosser is the loveliest human AND photographer. I’ll continue to scream this from the rooftops!

Hannah is absolutely incredible. I never thought someone would be able to so perfectly capture the way Mitch and I feel about each other in a picture, let alone like a thousand, and Hannah did just that. We were looking for natural and candid shots, and we are simply obsessed with the way she captured our wedding, and from EVERY angle! She is organized, kind, happy, thoughtful, and SO FUN! Everyone at our wedding ranted and raved at how kind and fun she is, too! Coordinating with her was a dream and we felt so celebrated the entire time. (Her website and all her designs are GORGEOUS, too!) Hannah, thank you so much for so perfectly encapsulating such special days for us!

Hannah and her team did such an incredible job capturing our wedding at Villa Cortine at Lake Garda Italy. From start to finish Hannah was such an excellent resource as we planned our wedding weekend. All of the photos that came back were so incredible and helped us relive the entire weekend! Hannah and her team made the process so easy and fun. We were specifically looking for a photographer who specialized in documentary style photography and it did not disappoint. We were also looking for someone who would help us feel more natural and comfortable in front of the camera. It was also so important to have full trust in Hannah and her team to yield the best results. It became an incredibly collaborative and dynamic experience and we could not have imagined working with anyone else to capture our big day! Would absolutely recommend Hannah to anyone! Thank you so much!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Hannah Rosser shoot our wedding in November at the Revere in Dawsonville, GA. Our photography vendor was one of the most important, if not, the most important vendor for our wedding. As memories fade, we knew that our wedding photos could transport us to those joyous moments. When we saw Hannah's portfolio, we were sold. Her style is documentary style photography with a hint of editorial, sprinkle of dark and moody, and all the nostalgia. Other than your partner, your wedding photographer is the person you spend the most time with on your wedding. We knew we wanted someone with great vibes, that could keep things light and playful. Hannah and her team were absolutely spectacular on the wedding day. They made us feel like celebrities and were the ultimate hype squad. Hannah's team was incredibly patient and flexible throughout the day, never making us feel rushed or stressed. Our wedding day sessions allowed my husband and I to escape the chaos, and take a moment for ourselves. Additionally, both our families loved having her team around for the wedding. Now come the photos. "Talented. Brilliant. Spectacular. Amazing. Showstopping. Spectacular." - Lady Gaga (IYKYK). I was smiling ear to ear looking through our wedding gallery. She captured every important moment, and all the little ones in between. Hannah is a luxury wedding photographer that can find the beauty in anything. We wanted incredible photos, great vibes, and a peace of mind. Hannah and her team delivered on all those things. We are so happy we hired Hannah for our wedding and eternally grateful for capturing photos that we can cherish for life.

Where do I even begin?! Hannah is AMAZING!! I knew from the first minute of speaking with her she was going to be a good fit. After obsessively following her Instagram and getting her booked I was BLOWN AWAY with our final gallery of photos. We got married at the Jekyll Island Club off the cost of Georgia on New Years Eve. We did a weekend of events kicking off with a Croquet Tournament, then a rehearsal dinner, and welcome party all covered by Hannah. She also covered our entire wedding day, from some early getting ready shots to the year changing over at midnight! She was a trooper but made it through a very long weekend. When I say she covered everything, she covered every moment! She was there for so many hours and it shows in the nearly 2000 photos she delivered. I have already ordered so many prints and am going to have multiple wedding albums. My now husband and I are not huge on PDA and were very new to the whole kissing on camera thing and Hannah made us feel so comfortable. She and her husband worked as a team with the sweetest second shooter over the whole weekend. We received film photography and drone coverage, which we had not originally planned, but I am so thrilled we added it to the day! The film photos might be my very favorites, they are perfectly imperfect. They have a classic vibe to them that was my goal for our photos. All of her photos just have a hazy look to them & I don't think she could have done a better job. She got some posed moments but SO many moments were captured organically. The photos are just so classic, I know I will look back 10, 20, 50 years from now and still be positive Hannah was the perfect photographer to capture our day!

We hired Hannah for our Maryland wedding because of her romantic yet editorial, documentary-style approach. She delivered beyond our expectations. The gallery she has sent us so far is exquisite, capturing our desired style with a mix of vintage Hollywood and modern elegance. Each image takes me back to the day, telling our story in the most breathtaking way. Working with Hannah was a dream! She was so relaxed and easy-going, never rushing us or spending too much time on posed shots. Instead, she perfectly captured the natural moments of the day. She even stayed late to photograph everyone as we jumped into the pool! Both my husband and I are pretty camera-shy, but Hannah made the whole process feel so comfortable. She understood what we wanted, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, supportive, and thorough photographer who will capture your day beautifully.

Hannah was one of the best and easiest decisions we made for our wedding! I started following Hannah on instagram after seeing some of her work and I instantly fell in love with her photography style and personality. She was my absolute dream vendor for our wedding and I feel so thankful that we were able to work with her for our special day. Not only is Hannah one of the sweetest girls I have met, but she is so professional, organized, and talented! She made me feel so comfortable on our day, and it was like a breeze shooting with her. I can’t tell you how comfortable and happy we felt taking pictures with Hannah. The pictures that we received after our wedding will truly be something that I will always cherish, they bring back so many emotions from our day and I think Hannah did a wonderful job capturing all of the special and emotional moments in an organic way. If you love romantic, filmy, timeless pictures then I think Hannah is your girl!

Hire this women! We had an intimate beach wedding in Ocean Isle, NC the same day hurricane Ian hit. The island flooded, my caterer canceled, the bridge to the island closed, yet Hannah still showed. Not only did she show but she drove down the night prior to make sure she made it onto the island. I obviously could not get my sunny beach photos due to weather but I think the outcome of Hannah’s work was even better. When the waves and wind died down we went onto the beach for couple shots, not only did we have an absolute blast but we received the most beautiful, moody, dreamy photos! I hired Hannah for her artistic approach to photography and she blew away my expectations. She is also the sweetest person and made my husband and I so comfortable during the whole process. I could not recommend her enough!!

We had the privilege to work with Hannah's team for a wedding in Miami and we just want to say, look no further. As a luxury event planner in FL, we have seen and worked with many photographers, but Hannah's work is among top 5 of all time. Not only is she amazing to work with day-of, her preview gallery was delivered promptly and was extensive. We immediately downloaded every image (a first for us) and the way she captured our couples' authenticity was remarkable. Her work speaks for itself; how she captures raw moments in time, it's candid, yet timeless. It's a true body of artwork and we often get lost in her gallery of images. We will count down the days until we have the opportunity to work with her again as there are no words to truly describe her gift!

LITERALLY loved working with Hannah- she was hands down one of the easiest photographers to work with as a planner and trust me there are plenty I would not say this about. Calm under pressure, professional, and unnoticeable (this is a big deal trust me!) she made my job easy and she CRUSHED her job. She captured the people, the tables, the ceremony, just the entire day IMMACULATELY. I mean I have no words. We will work on many many more to come!! 10/10 recommend :)
