Logan was our DJ for our wedding and he was absolutely phenomenal. He was so professional and organized. He made sure to give our wedding party and us clear direction and what to expect to keep to our timeline and have a great experience. He always had a smile and interacted with us and guests. He makes sure to go over many details to understand the vibe of the wedding and guests and works closely with the bride and groom to figure out what genres and types of songs to play at the wedding. I would highly recommend him and his business for any dj needs. You will not regret it or be disappointed.

Dean MacKay Photography has been such a joy to work with! Our wedding was back in May 2024, and with a reception do-over happening very soon (due to illness-driven reasons), we are looking forward to working with him again! Dean's communication is timely, professional, and always makes sure his clients' requests are completed (reasonably). Dean puts all of his energy in making sure magical moments are captured along with getting moments that are timeless and elegant. He was absolutely phenomenal to have as our wedding photographer and even got photos of things we don't remember happening! In making sure our special day is everything we could imagine, it was super sweet to meet and discuss locations, ideal shots, and more leading up to the big day (which made the wedding day a bit less stressful). Dean is also very reasonable for travel! If you are looking for someone to make your day feel special and candid, he is your guy!

Bogdanov Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. From the moment we first connected, Svat was outgoing, reachable, and prompt in his communication, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process.

His detail-oriented, gorgeous photography captured all the special moments of our day in a truly high-quality and affordable way.

Svat went above and beyond, even gifting us beautiful Polaroid photos just before we left for the evening. We were crunched for time before the ceremony, but he was still able to capture so many meaningful moments that surprised us and beautiful accessory layouts.

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

Their communication throughout the planning process was fantastic - they consistently kept us updated on travel plans and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the photography timeline. Most importantly, the quality of their work is stunning. We recently received a preview of some of our photos and were brought to tears by the beautiful images capturing our special day. Shannon and Ally have a true talent for capturing emotional moments without ever getting in the way. They were the hardest working team at our venue, going above and beyond to get every possible shot we could have imagined. We felt so comfortable with them that they even grabbed some extra candids of our wedding party that we had asked for with no issues.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Dasha! From our very first email exchange, we could feel her amazing energy—she was so friendly, easy to talk to, and incredibly professional. When we learned that she had recently shot a wedding at our venue and hotel, we knew we were in great hands. Neither of us take a lot of pictures (and usually don’t take them well!), so we were nervous about the process. But Dasha immediately put us at ease. She met with us in our neighborhood a couple of months before the wedding, and her warmth, confidence, and expertise reassured us every step of the way. On the big day, she was incredibly kind, patient, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. She brought out the best in us, and the results speak for themselves—the photos are absolutely unreal! We couldn’t be happier and couldn’t recommend Dasha more highly.

Just a little backstory on how I got into this business. When I was a child, I loved taking pictures of everything. And I mean everything! (I get that from my mom.) Now my dad didn't share this same joy as me because back then it was all film and every snapshot I took...he knew he had to pay to develop. We love to look back on that time of my life now and see where it got me. Its a funny story to reflect on, but so rewarding to see a joy turn into a passion and that passion turn into a career!

Awarded Best of Zola
I work with Skyler Coonan in a recent wedding and she was absolutely lovely and professional. Unlike other photographers she was respectful of our team and equipment, it can get a little out of control when the makeup/hair/photography team and bridal party are on the same room, Everyone wants to do their job but some photographers start moving our lighting to different areas and it makes our job hard, Skyler gave us o it space to finished our work while she was working around us to go her job, She was very professional with everyone not just us, I would love to work with her again and I’ll be recommending her to my brides as well.

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

Choosing a photographer for your big day can be a little overwhelming. I think it's important when choosing the person that will capture your wedding day to obviously look for quality images in that photographer's work. And you want to look for someone with experience in all types of situations, small weddings to large weddings, from barn weddings to large reception venues. It's not just a matter of comparing one photographer's wedding packages to another photographer's wedding packages.

Listen, if you're on the fence, don't be. Call Pinnacle Affairs. We were going to plan everything ourselves and now it's the biggest running joke we almost didn't hire Carice and her A team. From the moment we first met Carice from Pinnacle Affairs, we knew we were in good hands. Her communication style is calm, efficient, and kind, putting us at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of her work and the value she provided was truly outstanding - she was thoughtful, organized, and incredibly creative in helping us curate the perfect wedding weekend to kickstart this next chapter of our lives. Carice brought a wonderful sense of calm and humor to every interaction, making us feel instantly comfortable. There was no scenario she hadn't seen before or wasn't able to find a perfect and creative solution for, whether it was solving transportation snafus or tweaking our timeline. We are so grateful to Carice and the entire Pinnacle Affairs team for helping make our wedding day truly special and unforgettable. I cannot imagine planning any other event without her, I mean who else is going to keep my makeup intact?!

I am the one behind the camera, the Maggie Ann in Maggie Ann Photography. I specialize in portraits and wedding photography and I am based in Pittsburgh, PA but would absolutely love to shoot anywhere your heart desires! I started my photography business after losing my mom suddenly, it gave me a realization of just how important photos are, and the memories we leave behind. I started this business to make images you are proud to share. I cannot wait to bring your vision to life!

Maggie was fantastic. She was able to roll with all the chaos of the wedding day with such ease. My husband actually disappeared from his hotel room for his "getting ready" photos and she took the time to do a redo at the wedding venue. She is calm, cool, and collected while dealing with family. We are also so happy with the photos she took. She has such a talent for taking photos of couples and coming up with creative ideas.
