Ammaniel Hintza — Photographing Love Across America
The Photographer
Photography is my passion. My name is Ammaniel Hintza, and I've been a photographer for over 20 years. I have photographed more than 300 weddings and know the culture and traditions of Ethiopia and Eritrea intimately.
Working with me is like having your own personal wedding photographer — because I understand the traditions, the special details, the mels, the shimet, the habesha kemis, the language, and most importantly, you as a couple.
Whether your celebration is in Washington DC, Dallas, Minneapolis, or anywhere across the United States, I travel to you. As an experienced Eritrean photographer and Ethiopian wedding photographer, your wedding deserves someone who truly gets it.

Based in Dallas, available nationwide. I travel to wherever your celebration takes place — no distance too great.
I speak the language, know the traditions, understand the ceremonies. Your photographer should be part of the community.
Museum-quality printed albums designed to become family heirlooms — passed down through generations.
