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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

I hired Mel and his wife to be my wedding photographers, and they were AMAZING!! You could tell they really put a lot of thought and effort into making sure your photos come out just the way you want them. My package included a free engagement photo shoot, and that was a great time to get to know him before the big day. Mel is always reachable and happy to answer any questions you have in the wedding process. I am including a couple of the photos I received so you can see just how stunning they are!

I’m Kate — Ukrainian-born, Carolina-based, and the kind of photographer who will fix your veil, tell you exactly what to do with your hands, cry behind my camera during your dad’s speech, and somehow still notice your grandma tearing up across the room. I’ve been photographing people since 2018, and I’ve learned that the best wedding photos rarely come from trying to create a “perfect” wedding day. They come from actually having a really good one. I love incredible dresses, gorgeous light, old architecture, 35mm film, and portraits that could live in a magazine — but I love the champagne-popping, hair-coming-undone, friends-losing-it-on-the-dance-floor moments just as much.

She helped us plan out our timeline so we knew exactly what to expect on the big day, which took so much stress off our shoulders. Angela has a gift for capturing different moments and angles that we didn't even know we wanted but absolutely love now. Her turnaround time for our photos was impressive, and we had our sneak peeks within days.

We couldn't be happier with Angela Mallett Photography and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who cares about getting it right.

I’ll guide you when needed, help the day feel calm and natural, and notice the moments you may not even realize are happening. With over eight years of wedding experience and now being a 2025 bride myself, I understand how quickly it all moves and how important it is to feel comfortable, supported, and fully present while your love story is documented honestly and beautifully.

From the moment we first reached out to Created by Patty, their communication was amazing, super fast, and incredibly helpful. Their work is drop dead gorgeous, and they provided us with sneak peeks of our photos so quickly that we were blown away. They were super on point with everything we wanted, and were so nice in wrangling our wedding party to get all the photos we wanted, even when we threw in some last minute requests.

We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise.

My name is Wioletta, but you can call me Viola. I am a professional photographer based in the mountains of North Carolina where I reside with my three children, partner, a Great Pyrenees dog and a Siamese cat. I have a degree in Visual Art, but I have been fascinated by photography since I was 14 years old. I moved to the United States from Poland when I was just 16. I created my first photography business in 2010 where I shot moody and aesthetic self-portraits that I later sold as prints. I also designed logos and CD covers for bands. I created my wedding business, Ethereal Moments Art, in 2018 and ever since it has continued to grow.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ethereal Moments Art was amazing to work with from start to finish and worth every penny. The theme of our May wedding was romantic, storybook/fairytale with lots of mauves, olive and sage colors and we wanted a photographer with an ethereal, intimate, candid style to match. We found Ethereal Moments Art by searching on the Knot. The first "difference-maker" is that the Ethereal Moments Art's website is upfront and transparent about pricing, day-of-timeline and process, which many photographers don't discuss in such detail right away. We were able to clearly envision working together. Plus, we could immediately make a decision to engage based on one of our highest priorities in vendor selection--budget. After an initial call and agreement, we had an engagement shoot. Wioletta suggested a time and place near us that captured our desire for a candid shoot in nature. We had not had a formal photoshoot done before, and Wioletta was professional, patient when we ran into traffic, gave helpful direction, made us feel comfortable, and took charge to capture us while the sun was going down and we were super sweaty! You can't tell at all in the final photos, either - it was a great way to get to know Wioletta and establish trust before the big day. Wioletta helped ease our minds and prepare us for the wedding day by asking for a list of photos that we wanted to have such as locations during first look, family portraits, etc. She and her shooting partner were on time and started working immediately. Even while the bride needed extra time due to a nervous stomach Wioletta was patient and adapted quickly, used that time to collect more photos of family and the venue. Wioletta did a fantastic job capturing all of the key moments, the beauty of the venue, family group portraits, and the candid moments shared amongst everyone having a great time. She provided a preview shortly after the wedding day, and then the whole album within her promised timeframe. Our album consists of thousands of photos(!) and we are very happy with them. Ethereal Moments Art's online platform made it easy to order prints, an heirloom photo album with USB containing all files, and a large framed version of our favorite image - the one of us sitting in the red chairs. It's hanging in our living room today. I cannot recommend Wioletta enough for your wedding and/or engagement. Overall, a pleasure to work with, responds promptly, and is a master of her craft. If you are on the fence, don't hesitate to book. Thanks again, Ethereal Moments Art! Our family will treasure your art for our entire lives.

My philosophy is simple... I am here to tell the story of the day you married the love of your life. I want to document the excitement of you getting ready with your best friends, the look on your mother's face when she sees you in your dress for the first time, and the tears your father cries during the father - daughter dance, and that "Oh my God, we are really married?!" look of joy on your faces as you walk down the aisle as a married couple for the first time. I will pose you and guide you when necessary, but I believe when you are focusing on each other and really soaking in those moments --- that's when the magic happens.

Megan was truly the best photographer we could have possibly chosen for our engagement and wedding. She was so easy to work with both leading up to our big day, and on wedding day itself (shoutout to her for saving the day more than once on wedding day when the weather and my stress got the best of me!). We are absolutely in love with our photos, and would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Before we even officially hired her, Christin was helping us find a venue that aligned with our dream, connecting us with other amazing vendors, and offering support in ways far beyond the role of a photographer. She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her.

Finding a photographer whose work you truly love is essential, but it's equally important to choose someone who will bring out your best and make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I strive to do just that and would love the opportunity to be part of your special day!

From our first call, I knew Ali was the photographer we needed (seriously think we booked within 24 hours). We immediately felt comfortable with her as if we were talking to a friend and, as two people who tend to be awkward in front of a camera, this went a long way. During our engagement shoot, she helped find poses that worked naturally, made us laugh during the cheesy shots that turned into our favorite pictures, and brought my Pinterest dreams to life (we had the same pics pinned so it was meant to be). Not to mention she was even sweeter in person. On our wedding day Ali jumped straight into it seamlessly. She’s easy to be around and brings a calming presence no matter what’s going on around her (calling her the calm in the storm would be an understatement). She captured every moment perfectly and had our best interest at her forefront the entire day. She even found excuses to give me a pause if she noticed I was getting nervous or seemed overwhelmed (I never told her I noticed she did that for me but it was so appreciated). After the ceremony, she knew exactly how to wrangle in our families and wedding party, and somehow managed to capture the best photos in record-breaking time. This is getting long so I’ll wrap it up, but if you’re anything like me and you’re indecisive or worried about making the right vendor choices, trust that you won’t regret this one. I could go on and on but, long story short, we’ll be forever grateful we chose Ali!!

I'm a filmmaker and photographer who believes every couple has a story worth telling, not just documenting. My background in directing films has shaped the way I approach weddings, focusing on genuine emotions, meaningful moments, and timeless imagery instead of staged poses. Every wedding is unique, and my goal is to create photographs and films that let you relive the feeling of your day for years to come. I pay close attention to light, composition, and the small moments that often go unnoticed, because those are the memories that become priceless over time.

Alvaro’s team are beyond talented! We did a photo shot with my sister who is pregnant and the pictures came out so good, better than what we expected. He is so professional and we honestly couldn’t have a better team to capture this moment. I 100% recommend him.

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

Are you looking for a photographer that feels more like a friend? One that makes you comfortable when posing and documents natural laughs? Oh hey! You found me! What is my style? I'm a candid and VIBRANT photographer. How would my friends describe me? Bubbly, loyal, and hilarious. Okay, maybe they don't tell me I'm hilarious but I laugh at my own jokes.

Strongly recommend working with Kaitlyn for your wedding photos-- we are so pleased with how the photos from our wedding turned out. I don't know how, but Kaitlyn captured just about every moment to a "t". Even reviewing our photos, we caught so many moments we missed the day of. So grateful we had such a professional and well-equipped photog in our corner on our special day-- it allowed us to kick back and enjoy ourselves, and I'm *SO* glad we put our faith in her. One note-- when working with Kaitlyn, she'll ask you to fill out a survey before your event. I'm so glad she did, because it got us thinking about what our priorities were before our wedding day, and every single photo we could've wanted or asked for is there! She even managed to corral our very camera-shy dog.
