    Best Photographer Ever

    If I could've given 1000 stars I would. Esther is a one of a kind photographer. Her work speaks for herself but what sets her a part from everyone else, is that she treats you like you are her family. She is the biggest hype woman ever! She will make you feel like royalty with every photo she snaps. She is so meticulous, structured and has an eye to get the greatest shots! She isn't afraid to get on the floor, roll around in dirt, ask bystanders to move, do whatever it takes so she ensures you get the greatest pictures. I got the pleasure of working with her for my bridal portraits, engagement photos, bridal luncheon, rehearsal dinner, welcome party, ceremony and reception and I wouldn't have it any other way. She MADE our wedding dreams come true. Esther is extremely professional and prompt. She is always on time, organized and even delivers your photos way faster than you could've ever expected. She's been the greatest blessing and everyone who came into contact with Esther, couldn't say enough nice things about her. We are truly so honored to work with such an amazing photographer and human being. She is a part of our family now. If you have have the chance to work with Esther, YOU are the lucky one.

    GOAT Savannah Photographer

    Esther is the GOAT Savannah photographer. We did an engagement shoot with her in summer 2022 and then our wedding in March '23. My husband is not very comfortable having his picture taken and generally loathes the idea of a photo shoot, but Esther is the first photographer who actually makes him feel comfortable and gets him to smile naturally. She also somehow, magically, got my dog Leo to pose perfectly for all of our wedding portraits-- something he definitely doesn't do at home. When I saw our wedding preview photos I actually gasped at how stunning they were and I asked, "Did we really look that good?!" Esther elevated the entire experience and captured our day more beautifully than I could have imagined. I truly feel these are magazine-worthy photos. We will definitely use Esther again in the future.

    Excellent all around

    Friendly, relaxed, confident...Esther put everyone at ease and made us all feel as if we were the most important wedding she had ever covered. Her personality and professionalism were both extraordinary. The best photographer I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

    A Magical Experience and Fairytale-like Photos

    I booked Esther Griffin as my wedding photographer, and even before I met her, my other vendors I spoke to sung her praises. She is well known in the industry as being a true professional. My florist called her "Mary Poppins" and said she'd get everything done efficiently and perfectly, and that is absolutely what she did. Not only is Esther the best photographer on the planet (the photos she took are so breathtaking) but she is so kind, and made all the other aspects of my day fun and perfect. I'm pretty sure Esther could also be a wedding planner and a tour guide of Savannah if she had the time!

    Esther will take you to all the best photography spots in the city with punctuality, cheeriness, and professionalism. And then when you receive your photos (she'll get them to you lightning fast!) your breath will be taken away. She will help you with your dress, she'll wrangle your family together to get photos, and she will do it with a smile!

    A true pro. A wonderful woman. 10/10.

    Wonderful photographer

    We cannot recommend Esther enough - she is not only an amazing photographer, but a pleasure to work with. She made our entire planning and day of experience so seamless and enjoyable. Esther knew the best spots for photos and how to capture exactly what we were hoping for. Our wedding photos are beautiful.

    Amazing photographer

    WOW, Esther is such a dream to work with. She photographed my wedding and thought of everything. Esther is very punctual, kind, and hard working. She made my first look so easy and was incredibly comforting. A preview gallery was even available THE NEXT DAY! How awesome is that! If you’re on the fence about who to book, Esther Griffin is the best choice!

    Like your best friend taking your wedding photos!

    Esther is truly A DREAM. She did our engagement shoot and wedding day, and made all of it painless! Even my camera-shy husband commented that our engagement shoot was "honestly not that bad"...high praise! Esther is the perfect combination of professional and personable. She got the best shots, incorporated our feedback and dealt with a small hiccup quickly and seamlessly! It felt like a friend snapping some photos on the biggest day, and we'll treasure the beautiful images she got for the rest of our lives.

    Boone Hall Wedding

    I was sooo picky when it came to selecting a photographer for my wedding. I scoured Charleston’s extensive network of photographers but no one really stood out to me. Then by some miracle, I stumbled upon Esther based out of Savannah and I just knew right away that she was the one! Not only did the photos on her website blow me away but reading through her bio, she just seemed so down to earth! I cannot even express how glad I am that we booked Esther! She made me and my husband feel so calm and kept us laughing the entire day. Our photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined- dreamy, light-filled, and fairytale-esque. The only problem is, I want to print and frame every single photo and need a bigger house now!

    Perfection

    Shhh... don't tell our other vendors, but Esther was BY FAR our favorite. She was organized, experienced, patient and kind, and worked incredibly well with the other vendors. Esther went out of her way to make sure that my wedding day as the bride went as smoothly as possible, and made my husband and I feel so comfortable on our wedding day. And by the way, her photos were a dream - exactly what we had hoped for our big day. Half of them are going on the walls of our house and the rest are being sent as gifts to family for upcoming holidays. Anyway -- you'd be crazy not to book her right this second!

    Esther is amazing!

    Esther is wonderful in every way possible and is an absolute joy! Our wedding was so perfect and she made sure we didn't have to be worried about any of the minutiae so we could enjoy everything about our special day. She is an absolute professional who knows all the best locations for photos, her photography style is simply gorgeous, and she made all of us all so comfortable in front of the camera such that it felt like we were just just enjoying a lovely afternoon with a dear friend. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does and she captured moments that we will cherish forever. The only difficult part has been deciding on our favorite shots because we love them all!

    Esther is a DREAM!

    Esther was the very first wedding vendor I booked! I am so thrilled that I made that decision. From start to finish she was phenomenal. Her talent, thoughtfulness and professionalism made our entire experience stress-free. She did an engagement session, bridal portraits, rehearsal dinner and our ceremony and reception. I highly recommend the talented Esther! My favorite part of the whole experience was that no photos ever felt forced. Her process is so organic and FUN! She is there giving you all the support while capturing the love and life that naturally comes with the joy of getting married! Thanks, Esther!! You are the BEST!

    Amazing!

    Ladies, look no further for a wedding photographer! Your search stops here! I can guarantee you will not find anyone as wonderful or talented as Esther! Esther truly went above and beyond her call of duty as a photographer. Our wedding venue told us 4 months before our wedding date that they would not be able to accommodate as many guests as they had originally promised us (we had already invited the max amount of guests). Esther swooped in and saved the day. She immediately began reaching out to her contacts in Savannah regarding who had availability and could accommodate that many guests on our date! She sent us multiple options and gave her expert opinion on each! She eased so many of my worries and all of my stress! On our wedding day, Esther did such a wonderful job of keeping things on track and wrangling our families LOL. She had so much patience and professionalism but was also assertive enough to ensure that we got all the pictures that we wanted to get. I received the sneak peek of the wedding day pictures 3 days after our big day and they are absolutely GORGEOUS!!! We are thrilled with Esther's work. She captured the day so beautifully! Thank you so much for making our dreams come true, Esther!! We love you! Annie & Harrison

    Esther is the BEST!

    Esther is an outstanding professional photographer who not only did an amazing job of capturing the most iconic moments of our daughter’s wedding but actually helped to create even more special moments than we could have imagined. She even managed to turn a bump in the road, like getting locked out of the bridal suite with the entire bridal party while shooting pre-ceremony candids in their pajamas, into a photographic archive recording an unexpected adventure that made that special day even more unique. Her instincts and artistic IQ enable her to know exactly what to do in order to capture the true essence of the wedding and its participants. We cannot recommend her enough. She is the best!

    Absolutely amazing

    Esther is an absolute star!!! We are completely in awe of the wedding photos she has delivered thus far. She made sure we got every picture we wanted, and even accompanied us downtown after our reception for more. She is creative, kind, and so, so much fun to work with. We absolutely cannot speak more highly of Esther Griffin Photography!

    The best!!!

    Esther is the BEST! Beyond being an amazing photographer (her photos speak for themselves), she is a true joy to be around. My husband hates having his photo taken but loved working with Esther. She and her team are extremely organized, too! They were able to quickly move our engagement shoot around for weather when we were only in town for a few days, accommodated my (many) specific photo requests, etc. We were thrilled with our choice. Also, I showed Esther a few shots on Pinterest that I was dying to replicate and she re-created them all perfectly. Esther, if you're reading this, I can't thank you enough and I hope you can find time in your busy calendar to travel for our future photography needs!!!

    The best in the south!

    We have never felt more comfortable with a professional service than we did with Esther. From day 1, she was in contact with us, her processes completely streamlined with a detailed schedule down to the minute! She even recommended hair and makeup for me! Esther has such a calming spirit about her...my nerves were squashed when she took over! And the quality of photos....there is only one word---magical!

    Esther is worth it!

    My fiancé and I just had our engagement photos taken with Esther. She arrived early and was very professional. She is definitely a sweetheart who made us feel very comfortable and gave us guidance the whole way through the session. I kid you not, it was 101 degrees and she schlepped all around town with us getting more photos than I ever expected. She even saved a man from a diabetic crisis while driving to our second shoot location, and still made it there at the same time we did. Our photos turned out gorgeous! I can’t recommend her enough!

    Absolutely amazing

    I really can’t say enough positive things about Esther. I hired her for my elopement in Savannah, GA and I literally cried tears of joy when I saw the pictures. She has a wonderful eye for capturing the beauty of the city and the love between me and my husband. Esther is also just so kind and personable. As a New Yorker, I’ve had many professional photos over the years but none that I’ve loved more than these. She knows just how to direct you to get the perfect shot. I will cherish her photos for ever!

    Best photographer in Savannah!

    If you are thinking about hiring Esther for your wedding, stop thinking about it and do it. She is amazing, kind and so talented! There was supposed to be tornadoes and hail on our wedding day and she was so accommodating and adjusted the timeline so we could take photos. They turned out stunning and exceeded our expectations! I can’t say enough wonderful things about her and I am so happy I found her!
