“I cannot say enough amazing things about Maewood Collective. We hired them to capture my son’s proposal at the stunning Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix and the entire experience exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, Jen made the planning process seamless. Her communication, organization, and thoughtful check-ins leading up to the big day gave me so much peace of mind. She was incredibly kind, supportive, and flexible….honestly, it felt like working with a friend who truly cared about making this moment special. Brooke, our photographer, was absolutely incredible. Not only is she extremely talented, but she handled everything with such calm professionalism—especially when we had a last-minute venue issue. As a mom who just wanted everything to be perfect, I was definitely feeling the pressure, but Brooke stepped in with confidence, grace, kindness and reassurance that instantly put me at ease. She made my son and his fiancée feel like celebrities. They said the entire experience was so fun, natural, and special—something they’ll never forget. Brooke went above and beyond in every way, even helping with a last-minute “emergency” by help to glue on nails that were a backup plan. That kind of care and attention to detail says everything about who she is. Even our videographer couldn’t stop raving about Brooke—mentioning how wonderful she was to work with and how she absolutely nailed the entire shoot. To say we are beyond happy with our decision to work with Maewood Collective is truly an understatement. If you’re looking for a team that is professional, kind, talented, and genuinely invested in your experience, these ladies are your team!”

““Our photographer really took the time to connect with us, and we found that we shared a lot of common interests! She made us feel very comfortable, and completely followed our desires for candid and more relaxed photos. She was amazing at posing and directing us, as well as going with the flow and capturing what was happening in the moment. We couldn’t be more happy! We love all of the photos taken outside- our couples, wedding party, and golden hour photos feel so genuine and organic and I think that’s what our photographer really excelled in. Our golden hour photos specifically are very romantic and magical- definitely our favorites! I cannot give enough praise to the level of communication given during the planning process. Wedding planning is hard and it gets tricky to keep track of everything. From Darcy at the start getting us booked to Hannah throughout the planning process, I was so grateful for the texts and emails keeping me updated and on track. I am very grateful to have found OLAS, and have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.””

Hey There! I’m Hannah - an Intimate Wedding Photographer originally from the coast of Virginia but stumbled my way to the North Georgia Mountains which I now proudly call home! I love finding new adventures while exploring new places! I started my Photography journey capturing families but soon realized that my heart was completely drawn to capturing love & the bond that two people share! I describe my photography style as more Candid & Story-Telling driven with a soft, nostalgic film influence! I have a strong focus on genuine emotions over stiff posing, capturing the intimate in-between moments that just feel natural and timeless!

“I knew as soon as I talked to Hannah on the phone to inquire about working with her to photograph our wedding that she was going to be AMAZING. She is so kind and bubbly and I just felt so comfortable trusting her to capture our special day. She clearly lays out how everything will work such as timelines and payments, and she was SO quick to respond whenever we had any questions! We had our engagement shoot and our wedding photos taken by her and both times we were just wowed by her skills!! My husband and I are usually extremely awkward in front of the camera, but Hannah was brilliant at posing us so that we were comfortable and not stiff, and even took really great candid photos! Our wedding day went by in such a blur, it was so hard to really remember each detail of the day because it all went by so fast, but after getting our pictures back, I felt like I was getting married again! Every time I look at our photos I tear up because they are just so precious and I'm so happy that I can look back on these photos for the rest of our lives. I would recommend Hannah to everyone and I would not hesitate to work with her again in the future if we had the chance!!! Thank you Hannah!!! :)”

Her photos are incredible -- we literally cannot stop looking at them, and we are so grateful we selected her for the memories that we will frame on the wall and review for years to come. But even more than her amazing photography was how wonderful she is to work with! From our first Zoom call, she was immediately just so much fun to talk to. Something to think about: Your photographer follows you around your entire wedding day, so you need someone you feel comfortable with! Megan immediately put us at ease. We had a blast with her on the engagement photoshoot (we went to waterfall at sunrise!) and we had a blast planning out all our wedding shots with her. At the wedding itself, her team was so professional and endlessly kind. They never made the wedding feel awkward or had to "stop the action" for a shot. She delivered an AMAZING gallery for us in a timely manner with the most beautiful photos we've ever had taken in our lives. She captured all the special moments and managed all our family dynamics.

“Bhanu and Eternal Vistas were amazing to work with! We booked them for our courthouse elopement and to do a couples shoot afterwards. They were so easy to work with and super upfront about pricing. I appreciate how they prioritized getting to know us as a couple so they could really capture us and our relationship in the photos! We happened to be running late on the day and he was super understanding so we appreciate his patience cause it was a hectic day for us. He had beautiful locations for us to shoot in as well so we couldn’t recommend him and Eternal Vistas enough.”

“I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Brayley. From start to finish, she was hands down one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. I originally found her on Instagram and immediately fell in love with her work. From our very first consultation, I knew I wanted her as our photographer. She was so incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, and intentional with the questions she asked. She genuinely wanted to get to know us and make sure our personalities, vision, and overall vibe were a good fit for her photography style — and that level of care continued through the entire process. Once we booked her, she made everything SO easy. She checked in with us throughout the planning process, sent update emails, always offered to help however she could, and gave us the most detailed resources to prepare for the wedding day. She had checklists for detail photos, preference sheets, planning documents — seriously, everything you could possibly think of. I never once felt like I had to wonder what she needed from me because she had already thought of it. And then came the wedding day… Brayley was absolutely INCREDIBLE. We only booked her without a second photographer, and somehow she managed to capture our entire night so perfectly. She was everywhere without ever feeling intrusive. She never made us feel rushed or stressed, even when we were running a little behind while getting ready. She rolled with everything, kept things moving, and somehow even managed to wrangle all of the boys and get every group photo we wanted. What I loved most, though, was how much I trusted her creatively. We gave her the freedom to do what she does best, and she gave us photos that are more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She captured the big moments, the tiny moments, the emotions, the people we love, and so many little pieces of our wedding that I didn’t even realize were happening at the time. Looking through our gallery genuinely feels like reliving our wedding night. I tear up EVERY SINGLE TIME I look through our photos. She didn’t just give us beautiful wedding pictures — she gave my husband and me the ability to go back and experience one of the best nights of our lives over and over again. If you are looking at Brayley’s work and considering booking her, DO IT. There is absolutely no one else I would have wanted behind the camera on our wedding day. She is talented, organized, patient, kind, creative, and just an absolute joy to work with. Brayley, THANK YOU for capturing our wedding so beautifully and giving us photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I truly cannot recommend you enough.”
