Lavender Leigh Photography 

5.0

Carnegie, PA
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000

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.

Not only as a wedding and event planner but as a client, we have worked numerous times with Lavender Leigh! Leigh is so easy to work with, sweet, kind and overall just amazing at what she does! The natural light she looks for always is classic and timeliness and her pictures are stunning. I, Ali, had a boudoir done with Leigh for my husband as a gift for our first anniversary. I was nervous and overall never super confident about my body. Leigh made my boudoir session not only turn out beautiful but she helped me love my body and enjoy the process and the session. It was a wonderful experience and I am SO glad I did it! I will cherish the photos forever. Leigh is organized and timely. She is professional yet friendly and personable. Barry is so much fun and the guys of the weddings always have a good time with him! These two are a wonderful pair and are so good at what they do! We cannot recommend them enough.

From our first interaction, Sean and his team at Portraits By Sean were prompt, personable, and clear in their communication. Their exceptional, professional, and quick work captured the essence of our special day perfectly. Sean was laid back and brought great energy to our wedding, seamlessly capturing all the important moments without ever being intrusive. We had nothing but a positive and truly exceptional experience working with Sean from start to finish. Not only were our photos top-notch, but he took the time to get to know us as a couple and was able to beautifully document all the candid, unscripted moments that made our wedding day so memorable. I'd give Sean 10 stars if I could!

Kim worked with us for our wedding at Phipps Conservatory. From the start of our inquiry with her she was professional, responded quickly, and answered all our questions. Up until our wedding day, we had to make multiple changes to the schedule of the day to meet logistics, and she was flexible about it, which was so appreciated. On our wedding day she was extremely professional, kind, worked with our family well, and had a real eye for when and where to take photos. I am very introverted and the wedding day itself was overwhelming to me in ways, but her presence as our photographer was wonderful and calming. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

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!!

Lily did an AMAZING job with my flowers. I gave her a color palate and style and she did the rest. I was so happy with my bouquets and floral arch. We had several meetings to discuss details, prices, and day of installation. She even met me in person to pick up my decor! I would highly recommend her.

Maya Lovro Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,200
  • Serves Carnegie, PA

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.

From the minute we called to inquire about our wedding date (which was 8 months after we got engaged) Nicole was on the ball. Through multiple phone sessions, audio text messages, emails, etc, she helped to explain and guide us on what package was exactly right for me based on what I valued for the day. My husband and I booked the DJ, two photographers and a videographer through this company. We had a meeting with each one of them to review the timeline for the day and our “style” for the day. Each and every one of them extended so much professionalism and positive vibes during the entire process. Dj Ryan “007” Mitchell was our first meeting. He is so warm and friendly to work with, and extremely chill when it came to changes to the timeline or accommodations we needed with some audio things. He also knew exactly the vibe we were looking for on our day (we didn’t want full songs to be played and wanted a mash up of music) and he not only carried out this wish but he was on the dance floor with us carrying out the exact energy every wedding deserves. Samantha was our main photographer with Rocco has the second. Samantha was so on point and organized, and willing to get creative with our timeline to maximize the time spent between both her and Rocco. The “money shots” we have from our first look on our wedding day captured the best of the fall foliage and the most positive vibes .. Samantha was even excited about how awesome our shots were looking that she showed us a few while doing them. We were blown away by the “sneak peak” package she passed along - literally cannot wait to see the rest. Rocco was there to snag our reception and dancing photos. We already know those will be awesome as well. And now for Noah - the videographer. What a sweetheart he had been from the beginning. He was with us every step of the way, from getting ready - to the first look - into the reception. Noah was friendly and so chill - we knew his work was going to be good but let me tell you .. when we got the “teaser” reel.. W O W. We were so blown away about how he captured those brief moments of love that were going to have a watch party once we get back the full video. We actually re-lived the entire day in the 2 min teaser video so we’re pumped for the entire reel. Extremely satisfied. I’m not one to write reviews but feel compelled to share the positive experience we had with Loyalty Entertainment. If you’re reading this and on the fence about whether or not to book them for whatever reason.. this is your sign to just do it. And if you need more confirmation .. call and talk to Nicole and she’ll direct you with confidence in why this is the right company for you. Chefs kiss for this entire entertainment squad named!

CONGRATULATIONS! You just got engaged! :o I'm a firm believer in weddings being a blast, so I do what I can to make sure that your time spent with me is fun, active, natural, and feels like YOU! I'm also a firm believer in doing my part in making your wedding planning simpler for you, because let's face it wedding planning can be a bit overwhelming especially in the beginning. Also, weddings are stupid expensive and the moment you add the word "wedding" to anything the price jumps like 5x which is NOT COOL, and doesn't set couples up for success. So I try to keep my prices low. If you need help paying let me know!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend HaloLens Photography enough! Nick was a great communicator from the start, always responding quickly and offering ideas. He did such an incredible job with both our engagement shoot and capturing our wedding day. Neither of us are naturals in front of the camera, but Nick did an amazing job helping guide us and making us more comfortable! He also went above and beyond to meet our needs. My husband and I had picked some locations for wedding photos that didn’t pan out as expected, but Nick went along with it, quickly adjusted, and still got the pictures of our dreams! Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were thrilled with the final galleries, and will cherish them forever. We highly recommend them to anyone!

Erin and her team at Divine Celebrations were great to work with and we would highly recommend them for the wedding planning experience! We had a big, almost weeklong Indian wedding with multiple events, and Erin was one of the planners we interviewed and ultimately who we decided to work with. We greatly appreciated her insights throughout the planning process, especially as we were planning from another city and not on site. She had so many resources for us, including recommended vendors, planning checklists, and sample schedules. She helped us negotiate and review contracts with venues and vendors. Her team was especially helpful in the time leading up to the wedding and the wedding week. They were professional, organized, and timely. We had a snafu with one vendor, and Erin was extremely efficient in finding another backup at the last minute, kindly paying on our behalf on her own credit card to secure the vendor rather than worrying us in the middle of our event. She and her team kept what would otherwise be a chaotic weekend running smoothly and on schedule and even took the time to keep us well fed as the bride and groom, bringing us food and keeping some in our fridge for after the reception since we barely had time to eat in the midst of talking to our guests. The most pleasant surprise was her team arranging for the leftover cake to be served and the florals to be displayed at our brunch the morning after the reception, so the guests (and us) could enjoy them! Overall a great team and coordinator that helped make our wedding a success!!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the first call we had with Ashley, we knew she would be a perfect fit as our photographer. Her personality was so warm and welcoming and her passion for the work that she does, capturing your most precious moments, is evident from the moment you begin to speak with her. My husband and I were excited but slightly nervous about engagement and wedding photos - I consider myself not particularly photogenic, and my husband tends to avoid having his picture taken on most occasions. We were also skeptical, as a couple that isn’t fond of huge, flowery shows of affection that photos could capture our love for one another. As soon as we met Ashley during our engagement shoot, she immediately put us at ease and made us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera. She used the story of our engagement and our ideas about where to have photos taken and ran with it. She was able to create beautiful images that felt like equal parts a snapshot of our love story, and love letter to the city and campus where we found each other - even braving a bit of Pittsburgh rain to do so. She brought the same talent and warm presence to our wedding day. She struck an impressive balance between posing us with easy prompts for formal portraits and being in the right place to document the magical little details we couldn’t have anticipated. It never felt like she was intruding or forcing any moments or photos for the sake of them. Instead, it felt like she was an incredibly talented friend with a couple cameras who happened to show up in just the right moments to capture snippets of the day and night. Ashley also recommended bringing in a second shooter, Nellie, who was incredibly talented and warm in her own right. Together, they brought the most warm and uplifting presence to our day, and were able to capture our love for each other in a way that felt authentic to us. After the day was over, Ashley sent us around 200 previews two days later (!!!) and sent our full gallery one month later to the day. The photos Ashley takes have a way of capturing not only the image in a particular moment, but the feeling associated with it. The photos themselves are beautiful not necessarily because everyone is smiling perfectly and catching a perfect angle (even though many of her photos do capture that), but because they capture the beauty of people being their most authentic selves - and for the photos she takes of you, they help you see the yourself like the people who love you most in the world see you. We count ourselves so so lucky that we found a photographer that is as incredible a person as she is a talent. We cannot speak highly enough of her or recommend her highly enough to any couple who wants images of their special day.

Nellie Bradford Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Carnegie, PA

The photographer for film lovers. I'm a film believer that film belongs at weddings: Polaroids, 35mm, 120, Super8... you don't need to worry about the logistics: just enjoy your day + I'll make the magic. I'm Pittsburgh based but most of my work is destination, so weather you're getting married in your parent's backyard or a chateau in France: I'd love to make photos for you that help you savor this day for a lifetime!

From a fellow professional in the wedding industry, Nellie is a shining example of quality, friendliness, and ease-of-mind. Her work is stunning, and her presence on wedding days is immediately calming and uplifting. I've loved working with her and highly recommend others to do so!

Just Hitched Wedding Films 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $2,895
  • Serves Carnegie, 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 I can and maintaining constant communication the whole way.

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.

S and N Treats specializes in crafting gourmet cookies tailored to unique flavor combinations. Inspired by my kids, I pour my heart into every recipe, turning fresh, high-quality ingredients into treats that bring people together. Baking has been my passion for over a decade, and I’m driven by the joy my creations bring to life’s most special moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
S and N Treats was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding desserts. Their communication was efficient, quick and direct, which was greatly appreciated during the busy wedding planning process. The quality of their work was exceptional - they were very precise and detailed in creating the desserts exactly as we requested, and it was clear they made everything with love. For example, they even shipped us freshly baked brownies for a tasting, and they arrived soft and delicious, just as we had asked for. Honestly, there's no other small business that has better cookies at that price point. You truly get exactly what you ask for from S and N Treats, and we were left drooling and wanting more after enjoying their creations on our special day.

You may have heard me on the radio in Pittsburgh, or maybe you were a contestant when I co-hosted a game show at your favorite bar or your company's teambuilding event. But now I'm back to my roots, providing professional, experienced DJ and emcee services for the Greater Pittsburgh region!

We had a great experience working with C. J. He really helped the whole day run smoothly and kept everything moving.
