Hi! I’m Ashley of Ashley Sara Photography! I'm a luxury wedding photographer based in Pittsburgh, but I capture love stories all over the globe! I've been to Germany, Italy, Bahama's, Mexico and countless states in the US, all because two people fell in love with each other, and then with my work. My significant other offers videography and we both are familiar with Super 8 and film so together, we offer everything you could need!

Ashley Sara Photo is hands down the best choice you will ever make! She is not only the most incredibly talented photographer, but also the kindest soul. You will be in awe of her skills and want to be best friends with her all at the same time. She made our wedding day 1000x better and we had the best time exploring our venue with her while capturing the most beautiful memories. I look at my wedding pictures at least once per day because they are just that good. I am someone who hates photos of myself and does not enjoy being in front of a camera, and she somehow managed to give me literally hundreds of beautiful photos that I adore. She’s also a pretty awesome hype woman and will give you plenty of confidence boosts. We already have 1 year anniversary pictures scheduled with her and plan to use her for every other occasion we can because who doesn’t need more beautiful photos they love!? To sum this up, just hire her. I promise you will not regret it :)

It's YOUR friggin' wedding and I promise you tons of laughs, creativity, and killer photos. I love working with people and find inspiration in REAL life couples. We have fun, we get silly... hell, we even get a little weird if you're into it (safe word is, "Camera Shy") 😳. At the same time I obsess over crafting exceptional and authentic images. So whether you're some groovy hip kids or a couple of squares, let's go make some art together. I’ll put in the blood, sweat, and tears… you just show up. By the end of your wedding day, we will be best friends. I believe so much in marriage and weddings and truly enjoy being a part of them.

I feel like more than just a client with Mike, he took the time to listen to our ideas, gave some great advice and knocked it out of the park! I would recommend him 100%

Awarded Best of Zola
Courtney was AMAZING. She blew my expectations out of the water! I gave her a rather tough (in my opinion) bridal hair updo with a head piece and she absolutely delivered exactly what I had in mind!! She was professional, on time, prepared, and efficient (she also did a few bridesmaids and my daughters hair). All styles were done exactly to a T what was asked and we were done with plenty of time to leisurely get ready for the ceremony without having to cram people in. She’s also an absolute joy to be around! I would recommend Courtney 10/10!!!!

I want to capture your essence. People are often nervous when you begin to photograph them, but I have no expectations for you- aside for you to simply be your authentic self! I want to capture your silly, your tender, your sweet, your love. I’ll guide you and your loved one to interact in natural, timeless ways to create art that will have the honor of living in your home and being a part of your family for generations to come. I don't create for the now- I create for the forever.

We hired Anne has our part of our wedding day vendor dream team, and I am so, so thankful that we did. It was one of the best decisions we made. Anne is an incredible photographer. Her work is dreamy & ethereal, yet perfectly captures the essence of her subjects. Her work is also versatile - her candids and styled shots are both fabulous. Anne worked with us on engagement photos, so we had the chance to get a sense of her style and personality, and it was love at first photo. She is so warm and effervescent that we immediately felt at ease. Both my husband and I aren't super comfortable in front of the camera, but Anne's encouragement made the photoshoot fun. She even brought treats for our pup, which endeared him immediately. The engagement photos were incredibly and perfectly captured our romantic garden party vibe and our connection as a couple. Leading up to our wedding, Anne worked closely with our planner to make sure that our timeline, photo locations, and shot list were in perfect order. She worked tirelessly to create a rain plan that eased my panic when we couldn't take photos inside the hotel. On day of, Anne & her assistant arrived promptly at our bridal suite and quickly got to work doing flat lays, detail shots, etc. before moving seamlessly into first look and group shots. Her sense of humor kept our group laughing and made sure the groom didn't get tired of photos. She even helped carry my shoes and got my husband water when he lost his voice. It was like having a close friend at our wedding to cheer us on. Of course, the photos were incredible! Our preview was full of gems, I can't choose my favorite one. I can't imagine having to pick for the full album! She captured our love for each other and made sure we had a good time the whole day. tl;dr Hire Anne because she is very talented photographer and her team is fabulous, and also hire Anne because she is an amazing person. She will make your wedding day even dreamier.

I photograph I do's in PGH & love it - I'm unapologetically unfancy w/ always messy hair 😆 My favorite moment of a wedding day is when the new Mr. and Mrs. are announced into the reception because of the anticipation right before the doors are opened, the cheering of friends and family, and the happiness on the face of the couple.

Kristen is absolutely amazing! She is so easy to work with! She gave us an amazing outline of the day, she took so many amazing poses and different shots, and she took every idea I had and made they work great! I am so happy that Kristen was part of our special day!

Lavender Leigh Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Crescent, PA

Do you know what I love the most about my job? People. The people that I photograph. The people that I get to know. Their lives, and the story that has helped to shape them. There are never two stories that are the same. Life is beautiful that way. I began my journey as a photographer happenstance- I took some photography college credits because I loved the art, and wanted to fulfill a degree in it. Photography helped me to outwardly express the visions that I dreamed of, the visions that I couldn’t express into words.

I contacted Leigh as a recommendation from my now M-I-L after she had met her at a co-worker's wedding. She raved about how professional Leigh was and couldn't say enough about her work. When I contacted Leigh she was willing to meet me for coffee (which most of the photographers that I contacted refused until I signed a contract) as I wanted to make sure that I "jived" with the photographer who was going to be with me and spending a lot of time with me on my big day. Thirty minutes turned into an hour and I thought Leigh would be perfect for us. She is extremely professional, friendly and flexible. We did our engagement pictures with our pups when there was flooding and she didn't bat an eye. She was very attentive during our big day and her husband, Barry was equally as fantastic. With our wedding and engagement over, we are so glad to say that we have a TON of beautiful pictures and would recommend Leigh to anyone. AMAZING!

Congratulations to all the beautiful brides! These have been trying times to say the least. Life still goes on and like you, I was planning a wedding in the midst of it all. Throughout my process of trying to find vendors and all the things that come with every bride-to-be's well deserved special day, I was shocked at the cost of everything. I am a huge DIY fan if its doable. I do know, however, that not everyone is in a position to go that route so I started my own company dedicated to providing custom, high quality bouquets and other floral and misc wedding decor. No bride should have to sacrifice beautiful flowers on their big day.

Absolutely amazing! They showed up early and decorated the entire venue, including the ceremony aisle and all the details in between. I couldn’t have asked for a better florist!!

I currently do not pay for a Zola listing, so if you inquire here, I am unable to respond. Please inquire through my website if you legitimately would like to inquire. I’m Dawn, and I photograph your real, blissed-out wedding moments so you can relive them later. With me, there is no separating the now from the nostalgia, because I always deliver both.

I cannot stress enough how incredible our wedding photographer, Dawn, was throughout our entire wedding journey. From the moment we booked her, she went above and beyond to ensure that every special moment leading up to our big day was beautifully captured. Dawn's talent behind the lens is truly remarkable. She has a unique ability to capture the essence of every occasion, from our engagement photos to our bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. Her attention to detail and artistic eye resulted in a stunning collection of photographs that we will treasure for a lifetime. What sets Dawn apart is her genuine passion for her craft. She poured her heart and soul into every shoot, making sure that she understood our vision and style. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, allowing her to capture our personalities and love story in the most authentic way possible. Dawn's dedication to her work was evident in every interaction we had with her. She was always prompt, professional, and extremely organized. She effortlessly coordinated with our other vendors, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and seamlessly. Her positive energy and calming presence on our wedding day were a true blessing. Not only did Dawn capture all the big moments, but she also beautifully documented the small, intimate details that made each event so special. Every smile, tear, and embrace was preserved in her photographs, allowing us to relive those precious memories over and over again. The final result of Dawn's work left us speechless. The quality and composition of her photographs were simply breathtaking. She has a remarkable ability to create timeless images that evoke emotions and tell a story. Her skillful editing enhanced the natural beauty of each photo, resulting in a collection that exceeded our wildest expectations. Dawn's commitment to going above and beyond for her clients was evident in her willingness to photograph multiple events leading up to our wedding day. She captured every important milestone, ensuring that our entire wedding journey was beautifully documented. We cannot express enough gratitude for Dawn's incredible talent, professionalism, and warmth. She is not just a photographer, but a true artist who has given us the most priceless gift: a visual representation of our love and the memories we created throughout our wedding journey. We wholeheartedly recommend Dawn to anyone seeking a photographer who will go above and beyond to capture the magic of their special moments.

Happy Out Photography 

4.5

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,875
  • Serves Crescent, PA

Happy Out derives from Irish origin- ‘a feeling or strong emotion that you can’t quite put into words about how you are feeling in that moment…blissful, joyful, or pleased is just not enough to convey to others about the butterflies you have in your stomach and that permanent smile you can’t wipe of your face.’ So why is this important? — This is the feeling you should have throughout the entire wedding photography + videography experience, and more importantly when you look back at your once in a lifetime moments in your portraits and film.

We found Katie and her team on The Knot after searching weeks for a photography/videography team. We talked to many vendors, but none really understood our relationship/vision quite like Katie. On our first conference call, she made us feel so comfortable and ran through every detail with us. We chose her photography and videography package and also added a ceremony and speech taping. We worked with the Owner, Katie, the entire time and did not meet the second photographer or videographer until the morning of the wedding which was fine. Katie filled them in on everything and I felt like everyone was all on the same page. Our engagement session took place in September 2019 in front of the Phipps Conservatory. She let us do 3 outfit changes and even stayed a little longer after the sun went down to capture a quick photo shoot that was an ode to our love of movies. The engagement pictures came back quickly and were wonderful! She walked us through a lot of poses but also let us just do our own thing. My wedding fell into the “Covid-19” category so we had to postpone our June wedding until August. Our wedding day went on without any issues. Katie and her team went to my house first to capture my husband and his groomsmen then they came to our location to capture me and my bridesmaids. Since there were two photographers, I assumed that they were each going to come to each location, but that wasn’t the case. We weren’t rushed for time so it didn’t matter, but I just thought it was strange they stayed together instead of separating to capture more moments. Katie and her team captured the ceremony so well. The pictures were absolutely fabulous and truly captured the moments and the emotions behind them. The video was a standard camera that didn’t move so sometimes it was difficult to see what was happening. I would have liked to see more of the guests reactions. We were told that there would also be drone footage used, but there was no drone used throughout the day. After the ceremony, we stayed on location for bridal party shots and intimate couple shots. Katie walked us through everything and it was done in the hour that we needed it completed by. At the reception, again the events were photographed very well, but once the events stopped and the party began to take place, I’ll be honest I was a little disappointed in what was captured. I had asked Katie to take pictures of every table while we were making our rounds, but neither of the photographers followed us. Then during the reception, I wish that I would have asked Katie to capture more pictures of us with the guests. There were plenty of candid pictures of guests talking in groups, but no posed pictures of guests looking at the camera. I don’t really have any professional photos of me and guests other than my bridal party and family. One of my biggest disappointments after looking through pictures was that there is no picture of me and my mother on my wedding day. I have lots with my dad, but none with just my mom or just my parents. My husband had extra time with the photographers in the morning so he has a lot of family shots, but unfortunately, I don’t. DO NOT GET ME WRONG - my wedding pictures are AMAZING and Katie did a fabulous job. We received numerous compliments on her work. I just feel like if you use her, you need to make an exact list of who and what you want pictures of or it will not be captured. I recommend Katie’s services to any upcoming brides!!!

She was on-time, (7:30am start) incredibly talented and took so much time answering all of my niece’s makeup and skincare questions, they have never felt more special! Her professionalism and passion for her craft was evident on all of our faces, we looked amazing. Shannon was responsive through email and her pricing was true to her estimate. I was running out of time to do a trial, but based off of her Instagram I knew I didn’t even need one. Her signature look suits every bride and I have never felt prettier in my entire life. The makeup lasted all day and night, even through tears. I received countless compliments from friends and family and the pictures look amazing too. Not only is she beyond skilled, but her personality made the experience so enjoyable and relaxed. We honestly just had so much fun getting ready together. If you are lucky enough to find an open availability with Shannon, do not think twice and BOOK that now. She made my wedding day incredible, and I will be asking for a one on one makeup lesson for a Christmas present. Thank you, Shannon!!

I can't recommend the Botanic Garden enough as a wedding venue. It was pricier than other venues we looked at but so worth it for the space and for the services you get. Obviously the space is beautiful but the staff was really amazing. They met with us to organize our timeline for the day and go over everything in advance, coordinated with our vendors, and basically made us feel totally at ease with how the wedding was going to go. Day-of the staff and Emily in particular was with us every step of the way, making sure things ran smoothly, getting us to the right place at the right time, and organizing everything. We also got driven around on a golf cart for our photos which meant we really got to use the Botanic Garden space and get some amazing pictures.

I’m a multicultural wedding photographer based in Pittsburgh, PA and serving the surrounding area. My style is truly unique. I would describe it as a cross between modern, fine art and documentary-style photography. What makes me unique is that I do not have a single form of editing style like you see on most photographers instagram pages. I believe each image is unique, and you cannot edit every image the same way. If you like darker edits, I do those. But if you like more vibrant edits, I also do those. So let’s talk about what YOUR style is and how with my artistic eye we can create photos truly personalized to your event.

Simply put: Hire Danny NOW! We love his work.. and him as a person He was always on time and responded quickly to any questions we had... We didn’t want a traditional look to our photos... His artistic eye and edits gave us a truly unique look to our photos! Our photos were so awesome and loved that my brother and his fiancé are using him for their wedding too!!!
