Testimonials
“I can’t recommend Bella enough as a photographer! She took my senior pictures, and they turned out incredible. She truly captured my personality and vision. Bella is a joy to work with; she effortlessly directed poses and played music to create a fun atmosphere, making it easy to relax and enjoy the moment. Her ability to capture genuine laughter is unmatched. If you’re looking for someone for any type of photography, Bella is the best choice!”
“We cannot sing Bella’s praises enough; we have four children under seven and have failed on multiple occasions when trying to capture them all together with eyes open and smiling faces! This was not a challenge for Bella though, she kept them happy and made the task of composing everyone a fun activity and the results are stunning. These are not just pictures with everyone’s eyes open, they are works of art which capture a stage of life that we can enjoy for years to come. The lighting, the expressions, the compositions, the colors and the synergy of all these are magnificent - Bella Harris is truly a talented lady!”
“We hired Bella as our engagement and wedding photographer and she DELIVERED! Bella was extremely professional and helpful through the entire wedding planning process. She gave us a helpful guide to pick our outfits for our engagement photos and helped us choose a location for photos that was special to us. She helped us with our timeline and the wedding day flowed perfectly thanks to her help knowing how long different photos were going to take. We were ahead of schedule or on schedule the entire day. I have a large family and she was able to manage all the different groups of people and family dynamics with ease to make sure I got all the photos I wanted. Bella is punctual - She arrived to all the sessions early and ready to roll. She had our galleries ready even before the date she gave us. Bella is steady and calm - a great presence to have with you on your wedding day. Your wedding photographer will be with you the majority of your wedding day, and I appreciated how Bella was peaceful and the perfect hype woman. Not only is she steady, calm, and professional, but her photos are BEAUTIFUL. I cried when I opened our wedding gallery simply because of how beautiful the photos are. Her editing style is stunning. She handled multiple different locations and lighting levels like a pro and picked out great spots around our venues for photos. I appreciated how she captured the genuine joy of the day. If you’re thinking about having Bella photograph your engagement or wedding - DO IT!”
