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.

“We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!”

A decade in professional theater. Nine years as a fine art street photographer. Now I shoot weddings. The theater taught me comfort—how to help nervous couples relax and forget the camera. The street work trained my eye—finding extraordinary frames in ordinary moments, chasing light like it owes me money. The result: signature portraits that feel like paintings and a shoot that feels like hanging out with a friend. 300+ weddings. 151+ five-star reviews. A 10-photographer team. Zero cookie-cutter work. Camera-shy? Creative? Both? Let's talk.

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

“how do you start a review for someone that means so much more to you than just a photographer, a wedding vendor, a person that is capable of capturing all of your happiest moments? From the very start, Reyna was attentive, thoughtful, generous, and kind. She’s not the generic sort of “kind,” either. She is the shirt off her back, put others before herself, drop everything to make sure everyone is doing well type of kind. From the first interaction with Reyna, we knew that we would be so lucky to have her throughout our engagement period and wedding day. planning and paying for a wedding all on your own as a 28 year old couple is no easy feat, but Reyna worked with us every step of the way and was more than considerate. I am forever grateful that I stumbled upon her gorgeous photos and insanely aesthetically pleasing Instagram profile. I thought “no way are we going to be able to snag a photographer this talented.” Reyna made all of our dreams come true. She was able to capture the most gorgeous engagement photos of all time - I think she might even have magical powers and was able to curate the perfect sunset complete with sprinkles of rain and a rainbow. People, including us, were absolutely blown away by the pictures, how she was able to really capture our personalities, and how she added her touch of magic. We really didn’t think that we could love photos any more than our engagement pictures. And then she sent us sneak peaks from the wedding day. Reyna continually blows us away with her talent. I truly think I was able to keep it together emotionally on the day of because I had Reyna’s sweet, calm, and reassuring presence with me every step of the way. We have gotten so lucky with all of our wedding vendors becoming friends and family to us and Reyna is at the top of that list. Now that we have met and loved Reyna in our wedding era, we cannot wait to have her with us for all of the rest of our eras in life. We might even have to make up some life events just so we can hang out with her again. Never in my life would we feel this lucky to have someone like Reyna in our corner and I hope for everyone to be able to experience the talent, warmth, and love that Reyna exudes in everything that she does.”

“5 stars are not enough for this DYNAMIC DUO. We began our adventure in the lovely island of Bermuda on a very hot morning at the beach. Sylk Marti was there to capture every single moment of that wonderful day and took the most scenic and captivating photos I have ever seen. They displayed relentless energy even through the un-bearable heat and produced the most amazing photos of our wonderfully exotic fairy tale wedding. We continued our adventure 3 weeks later where we gathered with 130 of our family and closest friends to celebrate. Prior to the reception we encountered a few mishaps and just when I thought my day was ruined, the super heroes of Sylk Marti Studios swooped in and saved the day. I, in my crazy state, accidentally forgot to pick up my bouquet and boutonnière from the florist. Sylk quickly ran out and returned with a bouquet and boutonnière. I, then realized that our cake had not been delivered and learned there had been a mix up on the date with the baker. What was I gonna do without a cake on my wedding day??? Well, let me tell you what my super hero photographer, Sylk did. She quickly and magically arranged the delivery of a cake that was ready and on display just in time for the cake cutting. So, not only are they Chicago's most talented photographers, they are miracle workers. They kept the night moving smoothly as they wowed our guests with their amazing chemistry and charm. Danny's humorous and charismatic personality had all our guest willing and ready to take wonderful photos for a lifetime of memories and Sylk made sure that all the photos we requested were taken and all of our guests were included. Sylk Marti was ready at every step to capture every single fun filled moment of the night. My husband and I are thrilled that we chose Sylk Marti Studios to be part of our special day.
