Diana D. Sent on 01/31/2024Stunning work!
Hanel and his team are true professionals! The eye him and his team have for catching the beauty in every moment is outstanding. We are in awe with the work they provide. Not only is the output artistic and amazing, their kindness and patience is incredible. Day of my wedding, I was stressed out - until Hanel walked in. I knew we were in good hands because he is a great director for where to go and what to do. I found Hanel because my brother used him for his wedding, a cousin used him, and of course I had to too. Word of mouth - but I hope to spread the word to others as well. Very deserving for the best recognition possible!!Weddings by Hanel's reply:
Hi Diana! Thanks so much for the amazing review! My team and I all really loved working with you! You were both so wonderful to work with, and it was great seeing your family again on the wedding day :) I'm so excited for you guys and the start to this new stage in life as newlyweds!! Keep in touch! -

Isaac A. Sent on 08/19/2023Professional, accommodating - the BEST experience!
Working with Hanel and his team was one of the best decisions we made! We were a little nervous about the photo / video aspect because we feel like we never know what how to pose or didn't want to be awkward but Hanel made us feel comfortable from the moment we met. The photos and videos from our wedding are more beautiful than we could have imagined and exceed our expectations. They truly look like they belong in a magazine. Hanel is such a professional, gives off such a calming energy, and was able to pivot and accommodate us without a second thought when things changed or popped up. I cannot recommend working with Hanel enough.Weddings by Hanel's reply:
Thanks so much, Alisa & Isaac!! I feel so honored by your amazing words, and I'm so glad you're so happy with your photos and films, as well as with me and my team! You guys do belong in a magazine, btw ;) -

Hanel is a superb wedding photographer. Friendly, competent, professional, and exactly who you want for your wedding. We were so comfortable knowing we had him there to document everything for us. He's adept with staging and posing, helping put us at ease and directing the show when he needed to. During the ceremony, he was unobtrusive and never missed a beat. Ceremony, details, glamor photoshoot, family shots, dancing; or noontime direct sunlight, dimly lit libraries, or triggered flashes, he has it all covered. Extra shoutout to Mike too, his second shooter. General advice: your photographer is the vendor that you work closest with throughout your wedding day, so find someone you trust. Don’t skimp (though Hanel’s quite affordable). While we were searching, Hanel stood out to us because we thought we sensed a strong distinct style throughout his gallery. His work is both honest and dramatic. We will treasure these photos forever. -

I'm not sure how to explain how amazing Hanel is. From the moment we met him two weddings ago, there was no doubt that we would hire him for our wedding. And were so thankful we did. You will gain a friend and an amazing photographer! He is hospitable, kind, eager and yet so focused on his craft. The process in preparing for the wedding was smooth and organized which I admired because every little detail was not overlooked. Every angle, every moment was captured perfectly - even more so, more perfect than I could have EVER imagined. -

Mina Sent on 12/28/2021Having Hanel for our wedding day for our films was one of the best choices we've made!
Even before our engagement, we knew how amazing Hanel's work is from our friends' wedding film. And after we decided to work with Hanel as our own videographer, Hanel helped us continually for over two years and during the unprecedented times. Hanel was always so professional and personal at the same time and made our planning and our wedding date effortlessly smooth.
With the outcome of our film, we are so amazed how Hanel was able to capture and edit the most precious and beautiful moments during our special day( and night).
We are beyond thankful for Hanel for the most sentimental film that we will cherish forever!!

Rachel Sent on 11/08/2021Very professional photographer taking great pictures!
Hanel is one of the best photographers in town! He and his assistant are very professional and has great attention to detail. The pictures he took are also very artistic. His style and vision aligns really well with what we are looking for in a wedding photographer. Would definitely recommend him to any couples! -

We used Weddings by Hanel for our virtual wedding ceremony. As I have a large family, we decided to provide our guests the option of joining virtually if they were unable to attend in person. It was soooo incredibly successful. When I got to our sweetheart table, I glanced at my phone to find text messages from friends/family that tuned in virtually. They all proceeded to tell us how beautiful the ceremony was and how grateful they were able to be with us. Weddings by Hanel was kind, detailed, knowledgeable, and so pleasant to work with! For anyone looking for a videographer, this is the vendor to book! -

Hanel the Best
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 wife 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! -

Chris N. Sent on 05/01/2022Incredible!
We were a 2020 couple and had to pivot to a much smaller ceremony in 2021, but were looking for a way to incorporate all of our original (and much larger!) guest list. We found Hanel and his team online, and could not have been happier with our decision. Incredibly professional, responsive, and flexible. The livestream of our wedding was top notch - it was so incredibly professional (photo of us and classical music played for guests while waiting for the ceremony to begin), various shots/angles, clear quality, etc. We heard from so many guests who watched virtually and they said it was incredible! We also watched ourselves after the wedding and were blown away, and are now so happy we have this keepsake! Highly recommend, for live-streaming or regular video services, you will not be disappointed!
