About

My name is Hannah Bell and I am the founder and lead photographer at Southern Belle Photography.

I discovered my love for photography in high school when I received my first camera and I have been shooting ever since. I shot my first wedding in 2010 and since then I've captured dozens of weddings for amazing couples all over North Carolina.

I am completely addicted to the happy tears, the heartfelt vows, and the raw joy that flows freely during weddings. I love connecting with couples and documenting all the little moments behind the scenes that might otherwise go unnoticed.

To me, being a wedding photographer is about being a visual storyteller & I am so grateful to every bride & groom who has chosen me to tell their unique love story.

When I’m not busy behind my camera, you’ll find me reading to my two kids, binge-watching a comedy or sci-fi series (I’m a “Parks & Recreation” and “Star Trek: TNG” fan), or playing board games with friends & family. I am also an earring addict, a sci-fi nerd, a Christian, a wife, a perfectionist, a homeschool mom, a writer, and a connoisseur of Cook-Out milkshakes (peanut butter is my fave)!

If you are looking for a quirky, fun-loving photographer with a vibrant, bold style to capture your love story, I’m your gal. Feel free to reach out because I can’t wait to celebrate with you!

TESTIMONIALS

Gineen

"Amazingly talented photographer who will get you the images you want and even some you didn't know were possible!! If you need detailed photos completed by a great person this is the way to go!"

Molly

"I was amazed at how each picture just seemed to get better and better. Some even took me by surprise and made me tear up (which is not something I normally do). Others simply just took my breath away. Hannah went above and beyond my expectations and I couldn’t have asked for more. We love the canvas we purchased and the quality is awesome. Hannah is truly a gifted artist and I can’t wait for her photograph any future children because if she can make me look good, she can do anything!”

Noel

"I absolutely loved my experience with Hannah. She is a lovely, kind and a genuine person. I really felt comfortable and was so pleased with my images post-shoot. Thank you to Southern Belle! I'm quite happy!"
