I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Portraits by Sean was truly a blessing from the Lord for our wedding! Sean was professional, proactive, and communicative from the start, and approached our day with such care, kindness, and intentionality—it was clear he sees his work as a calling, not just a job. He’s not just a photographer—he’s a storytelling artist. He beautifully captured the love, joy, and sacredness of what God was doing in our covenant, and how special it was to share that day with our loved ones. His photos bring those moments back so vividly. He was flexible, kind, and truly a joy to work with. The quality of his work is unmatched—truly high-caliber. We thank God for him and will cherish these memories forever. Highly, highly recommend!

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Edgar is the best! He was fun to be around and up for anything. He traveled hours to meet us and even went on a pretty buggy/muddy hike to capture the most incredible photos. We are both so awkward in front of a camera and he immediately made us comfortable - such an important skillset! We can't wait to see him again next June for our wedding, and have so much faith that he will hit it out of the park again!

Kim Fleischer Photography was a perfect choice for our wedding photography. I found Kim’s work in the comments of a Facebook post on a wedding advice page, and I immediately fell for her quality of work - her photos are realistic, sharp, and you can tell she is skilled and experienced. It was also really important to me to hire local and female vendors. Her pricing was affordable relative to what other options I had been considering with packages to meet what I wanted-I hired Kim for engagement, wedding, and wedding album. Kim was extremely professional, kind, and comfortable to be around (which is so important noting how much time you spend with them on your wedding day). I was so appreciative of her working with us to schedule our engagement photos on short notice when our dog was ill, ensuring we could capture those special moments with our pet. We were lucky- our pet recovered and was able to be captured on our wedding day too! My expectations were exceeded on the wedding day-including striking photos of my husband and me in various settings, stunning individual shots of me in my gown, and heart-warming moments were captured of us with our pets, family and friends. I have our wedding photo album as a screensaver on my tv and watch them before bed every night. We highly recommend Kim Fleischer Photography to any couple looking for a talented, local, and trustworthy photographer to capture the magic of their wedding day.

I'm Emily - a Pittsburgh-based wedding photographer set on capturing intimate, joyful, authentic, & emotional photos. I want you to look back on your wedding photos not just love the way they look, but I want you to remember what the moment felt like. My hope is for you to feel the way your loved one hugged you as they gave you away, to laugh as you look back at the best man giving his speech...every captured moment has a feeling. I will do my best to stop those moments in time for you to experience forever. I am witty, goofy, sarcastic, open-minded, & honest. I will be your ultimate third wheel.

Awarded Best of Zola
Do you want your wedding photos to look like they should be in a magazine? Do you want something that is gorgeous with a little bit of 'tude on the side? Do you feel like you're going to be super awkward in photos but yet still want these results?? Then call Emily right now! We worked with Emily for an engagement shoot, boudoir shoot and wedding photos and the experience I had with all 3 of those sessions were top notch. Emily "got our vibe" right away and her personality immediately put us at ease, and for reference,I usually run at around an 8 anxious at all times and my husband is an accountant and hates being in the spotlight. I can't stop looking at all of the photos we received from all of these shoots and my friends keep telling me how obsessed they are with our photos. On an emotional note, Emily captured all of the elements from our wedding that you spend so much time on, but don't really get a chance to truly "look at" on the day, and I SO appreciated seeing all of those images in our photo collection just as much as the literal works of art that are our wedding portraits.

Bloom and Grow Floral Design 
Rating: 5.0 (24 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Castle Shannon, PA

As a life-long flower fanatic and nature enthusiast, a career in the floral industry always sounded like a dream job to me. That dream bloomed into a reality in 2018, when I left my bland corporate job to pursue a full-time career as a floral designer. Since then, I've been knee-deep in flowers, and I would not have it any other way! Bloom and Grow is the physical manifestation of my love for all things floral. Thank you for being here!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lily, who owns and operates Bloom & Grow, is the best. She is thoughtful, observant, attentive, extremely responsive, and a great listener - all the while being easy-going, positive, and just all around delightful! When it comes to design, she is a dreamweaver- crafting my inspiration and our ideas together to manifest a unique floral story that was true to me. Her plant knowledge is wildly impressive! I also love that she practices sustainability throughout her entire process. I went back and forth a million times on different color stories and flower types, and each and every time Lily met me with excitement and patience - truly helping me along the way and being more of a consultant than she probably bargained for (sorry Lily). The value of her work is unmatched, and the entire process of working with Lily was lovely. Anyone would be lucky to have her design their wedding, and if she is still available on your date - I'd snag her before someone else does. She made my wedding flowers everything I could've dreamed of - lush and impactful with playful movement and vibrant colors. I wish I could've spent more time looking at all of the little details of every arrangement, because each one was truly a work of art and so different from the next. Her style is already so cool to begin with, but I am confident she would lovingly and impressively cater it to whatever you prefer. Photos courtesy of Sarah P. Thomas Photography

My name is Maya (they/them), and I'm a queer, love-obsessed photographer operating out of Pennsylvania and traveling all over. I specialize in weddings and elopements, especially non-traditional, LGBTQ+, and multicultural celebrations. I am the 'picnic elopement in the woods' or 'weekend campsite celebration' or 'screw it, let's get married at a Waffle House' photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not have asked for a better photographer in any respect. Maya is extremely communicative, warm, welcoming, and excellent at what they do. I was incredibly nervous selecting a photographer because I had no idea what I was doing. During my first meeting with Maya, they put me completely at ease and walked me through the process, their photography philosophy, figured out what my spouse and I would/wouldn’t like in our photos, and even helped us get a sense of how our day’s timeline would go. Since we planned the entire wedding ourselves, their help even from this first meeting was invaluable. Maya and their partner the day-of were an absolute blast to have at the event. Even the usual stiff family formal photos felt fun and organic with their guidance, and they were always up for impromptu shots and suggestions. They make sure that their work is organic, dynamic, and really captures the essence of the couple’s relationship. I asked them to use my Polaroid alongside their professional gear and they were really enthusiastic about the prospect, so now I have a set of excellent Polaroids in addition to their amazing high definition work. My spouse and I will absolutely be going back to Maya in the future for more photography. Some advice: Don’t waste your time shopping around with other photographers. If you’ve found Maya, you’ve found the perfect wedding photographer.

I can’t say enough good things about WildRosesDesign. From start to finish, they were everything we could’ve hoped for and more. They took the time to get to know us, understand what we wanted, and made the whole experience so easy and enjoyable. On our wedding day, WildRosesDesign made us feel completely at ease. They had this amazing way of making the awkwardness of being in front of a camera disappear! Their creativity and attention to detail were incredible, and they captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening. When we got the photos back, I was blown away.

Erin and her team did a fantastic job with our Indian American wedding over Memorial Day weekend 2024 in Kingston, NY. Throughout a 1.5 year long wedding planning process, Erin was diligent, patient, encouraging, collaborative, detail-oriented, responsive, and 100% focused on what we as a couple wanted. Erin clearly brought many years of event and wedding planning experience to the table -- she balanced guiding us with best practices while also really listening to what we wanted. And, from our first meeting, we knew we could trust her completely, which allowed us to delegate responsibility to her and take things off of our plate. There were so many details and "event planning magic" tasks that Erin just knew to plan for and executed on. She and her staff also went above and beyond over the course of the weekend itself, handling countless things so that we could enjoy our wedding fully. This was her first wedding at our venue (which she found for us!), and she made it a point to build relationships with venue staff and to look around corners for potential issues that could crop up. She also did an excellent job managing and following up with all of our vendors, designing and iterating on floor plans, providing us with a timeline and checklist of decisions to be made, all while being cheerful and positive throughout. Our wedding was logistically fairly complex, and she was the reason it was all able to happen. Lastly, we were consistently impressed by her deep knowledge of Indian wedding customs and traditions, despite not being of South Asian descent herself. Erin has very clearly made planning weddings her life's work, and she excels at it! We could not recommend her more!

Hey - I’m Tillie! Does someone putting a camera in your face make you cringe? Me too! I know having your photo taken can be awkward and uncomfortable. I take my time to get to know my clients and their photo goals prior to their wedding day.

Words cannot fully express how pleased we are with both our engagement and wedding photos from Tillie. Back in 2022, Tillie willing drove two hours and hiked a steep trail just to capture our surprise engagement photos at Ohiopyle. We loved the final photos so much that we asked her to do our wedding in 2025! What stands out most about Tillie is not just the quality of her work, but the experience of working with her. She brings the perfect blend of diligence, professionalism, organization, and calm - which makes big days, like weddings, far less overwhelming and stressful. She photographed our wedding for nine hours straight and delivered over 900 gorgeous photos that reflected our vision perfectly. Even after the wedding, her dedication to quality continued. She was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and timely with every edit we requested - despite having many other projects in queue. We asked her to lighten some photos and remove some tricky shine from nighttime flash photos. She perfectly executed these requests and completed them in less than a day. Tillie is an exceptional artist and an even more exceptional person. Her photos allowed us to relive the most special days of our lives - including a few moments we may have missed. If you are looking for a kind, easygoing, and incredibly talented photographer, we would highly recommend Tillie for all your photography needs!

I am BEYOND happy with my experience working with Rachel and the Day One team. I was feeling extremely overwhelmed with wedding planning, especially the design aspects of it. After one meeting with Rachel, not only did I feel comforted, but I also felt excited. She exhibited the perfect combination of expertise and enthusiasm. She read my mind and made things I could only barely conceptualize into a reality. My wedding was the boho barn style event of my dreams thanks to Rachel's incredible eye and style. Most importantly tho, during the actual wedding, I felt like a participant rather than just a host. I hear all these stories of the bride not remembering their wedding day because they were so overwhelmed by the chaos. I didn't feel that way at all. What I remember is spending quality time with my guests and my husband, dancing the night away, and actually eating the food! This would not have been possible if Rachel and her crew weren't there arranging and coordinating everything. I just felt so taken care of it was amazing. I will be recommending Rachel to absolutely everyone I know. If you are reading this review and weighing your options, stop right now and work with Rachel. You will be so happy you did!

Winston is an excellent DJ and MC (which in my experience as a wedding photographer, the MC aspect can unknowingly get neglected when choosing a DJ). Every couple should want a DJ who is great with the music selections AND giving smooth transitions for events or announcements throughout the day. Never an awkward moment with Winston. During one wedding I worked with him, the catering was short-staffed and running behind on dinner, so Winston was asking if there was anything he could do to help get things back on track-- carry plated meals to guests, etc. Winston is proactive, positive and considerate to the couples wishes for their music and flow of events. You won't regret choosing to work with him!

Their communication style was poor, often accusatory and defensive when we tried to clarify details with Kelley. However, the value was great - they allowed our pup to be part of the ceremony, which was a special touch. But we had to get any promises from the coordinator, Kelley, in writing, as many things that were "included" in our initial meeting ended up costing extra. Overall, the lack of transparency and professionalism made planning more stressful than needed but overall the day went very well the ceremony was beautiful and the reception was a blast.

The rooftop space allows so much light, and the decor requires little decoration to make the space feel special. We chose to have our ceremony on the outdoor patio, come inside for dinner, and then have dancing on the outdoor patio, and it worked perfectly. The food was also delicious! We chose a plated dinner, and we had options of filet, chicken, or salmon for our guests. Everyone loved their meals! Stephanie, their event manager, was the best part of booking Over Eden as our wedding venue. We didn't have a wedding planner, and she really made everything run smoothly and took all the stress off of us during planning and the big day! Stephanie helped with everything, from decorating and coordinating with us to simply checking in with us throughout the day to see how we were feeling; She truly made the day perfect! If I could do it again, I would choose Over Eden every time!

We are Gabe & Molly, Pittsburgh based wedding videographers. Married for 13 years, we are actually obsessed with not just filming weddings, but telling your story. Our number one goal is documenting your wedding exactly how it happened! “Perfectly Imperfect” is how we celebrate your story. We are all about capturing those raw and untamed moments of your day. Our job isn’t to script your story or your wedding day; it’s to authenticate it in the form of video, for not just you to relive, but to preserve legacy. Imagine being able to see your grandparents’ wedding day like you were there. That is what our goal is – nostalgia for a lifetime.

Where do I even begin. I’ve known Molly and Gabe for many years, so when it came time to hire a photographer and videographer for my wedding , there was no doubt I was going to ask them to do it. Not only because I have known them, but I’ve followed their work. They are VERY detail oriented and love what they do. They are awesome at making you feel less awkward when trying to be purposefully cute, and they capture every moment asked. My wedding in the Dominican Republic was nothing short of perfect and I cry at even watching the sneak peak of photos and videos as they far exceeded my expectations and made it very personalized to my husbands and my wedding. I loved watching them have fun while working and even while working we all laughed and had a good time. They have truly become our friends. I would without a doubt recommend illumination studios for any photographer or videographer needs, and we will be using them for sure in the future! Thank you again Molly and Gabe for everything you did and taking the most beautiful pictures and video of our wedding!

The Hampton Event Center was the perfect location for my daughter's baby shower. From the moment I reached out, the staff was friendly and helpful, guiding me through the planning process with ease. The venue itself was intimate, clean, and beautifully decorated - exactly what I was looking for. The food and service were exceptional, and all of our guests raved about the delicious catering.

Just Hitched Wedding Films

  • Videographer

  • Serves Castle Shannon, PA

I started Just Hitched Films in 2012 with the vision in mind to produce a wedding film that not only tells the unique story of your wedding day, but also captures the personalities of the couple. I am a creative visionary with over 15 years of video experience, a 2008 graduate of Temple University's school of Media Arts, and a filmmaking guru- storytelling is practically my middle name :) I am also a people-person in that I love getting to know our couples inside and out. I am driven and dedicated in creating the best possible film for you.

Just Hitched Wedding Films was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding videography. Their communication throughout the planning process was prompt, thoughtful, and detailed - they always responded quickly to emails and took the time to understand our vision. On the wedding day, they worked efficiently and professionally to capture all of the special moments without ever getting in the way. We got our final videos back very quickly, and they perfectly encapsulated the love and joy we felt. The quality of their work and value offered was unmatched. From start to finish, working with Just Hitched was easy and stress-free. Their videos will allow us to relive our special day for years to come. We couldn't recommend them more highly for any couple looking to treasure their wedding memories with professional, high quality film work.
