We can’t recommend Hanel highly enough! He is a seasoned pro in the way he navigated our event seamlessly and maximized every opportunity to get stunning photos that allow us to relive our wedding every time we look at them. He and his assistant Mike were very professional, competent and had such a calming presence on our big day. They were thoughtful and warm, even going the extra mile to help corral family and keep us on schedule. He clearly and calmly directed us while shooting and everything felt natural and easy, especially for two people who aren’t used to having their photos taken.
Hanel has an incredible instinct for framing epic shots, capitalizing on the lighting and setting, and capturing sweet, intimate moments between a couple and their guests. No detail was missed! We got tons of beautiful first look photos, family portraits, and fun, candid party shots. He managed to take pictures of just about every guest who attended, which was a wonderful surprise for us. We were so taken with each and every single one of our photos, and will treasure them for the rest of our lives. We can’t thank you enough for capturing our day so beautifully, Hanel! You are a truly talented, amazing photographer and we loved working with you.

Other than our venues, Weddings by Hanel was the first vendor I booked for our wedding weekend. He went above & beyond to get the perfect shots and videos, dealing with our awkwardness, silliness, lewdness, and more in between! I had so many visions of the photos I wanted for our wedding and Hanel captured all of it and then some! We booked him for one pre-wedding session, and then videography and photography for two days of wedding events. Even our guests were talking about how efficient, detailed, and patient he and his team were.
Cannot recommend him and his team (we had the pleasure of having Min, Levi, Mike, and Liz at our wedding weekend) enough. I am so so so so grateful.

We can't say enough wonderful things about Hanel and his talented team! Up until the wedding day, Hanel kept us on track and provided us a wedding day questionnaire to fill out a month prior to the day. When we met to discuss it, we greatly appreciated his expertise as he gave us advice to optimize our timeline. On the wedding day, my family and friends raved how Hanel and his team were taking pictures nonstop. They were a calming presence and were very easy to work with! We absolutely loved how beautiful and professional our pictures and videos came out!!

My fiancee and I had a great experience with Hanel for an engagement photo shoot. It was the first time we had done any type of professional shooting and Hanel made us feel fully comfortable and gave easy to follow directions. In addition to being able to capture the feel of our relationship, his editing amplified each moment and the photos came out amazing. Would highly recommend!

We chose Hanel as our photographer and it was probably one of the best decisions we ever made! Here are the reasons why we loved Hanel:
1. His photoshoot and editing skills are great, I think that's obvious.
2. He is flexible and very attentive to details --we had our wedding in Rochester, NY, and he arrived there a day before the wedding day to survey the area, all the while getting a flat tire during the process. Diligent quality you want from anyone.
3. Has a great personality--we were a bit nervous about having photo shoots in the public area like inside the Central Park NY,; my husband and I are relatively shy about posing in front of others in public, but he made the entire photoshoot a really fun experience and we didn't make us feel uncomfortable at all.
It's a shame. I can't give him higher rating than the ones the system allows us to give, because we really loved Hanel and I would refer him to all my friends and family that needs a photographer.
Thank you Hanel!
