About

Hi! I'm Kara Gwyn, a wedding and special event photographer based in Pittsburgh, serving the Greater Pittsburgh area and beyond. Never missing a beat, I focus on the natural beauty of candid moments and capture them with a unique style of photography, combining lifestyle, photojournalism, and fashion.

Your photographer sets the tone for any kind of session. For weddings, your photographer is with you more throughout the day than just about anyone else, so it’s important to choose someone you are comfortable and at ease with. It’s been a delight working with countless amazing couples and it brings me great joy to encourage every one that I work with to feel comfortable and radiant in front of my camera. I dance the line between being a fly on the wall and carefully capturing every moment- never at a distance, never missing a beat. With great care and attention to detail, the images you’ll receive are just that of your memories from the day; intimate, near, and dear to your heart.

Kara is phenomenal!

My wedding photos by Kara are absolutely phenomenal!!! All of our posed and traditional pictures are stunning and I love that she doesn’t overly edit or change the look of our wedding. We also love all of our candid pictures from the reception. They're beautiful and joyous and made us uncontrollably smile. We weren’t able to meet Kara before our wedding (due to COVID timing) but she was so easy to work with start to finish. She was quick and efficient during posed photos and slid into the background during the reception to capture the party. She returned the photos on time and the website is so easy to work with. Highly recommend Kara and we’ll definitely use her in the future for anniversary or family photos!

Bubbly and Magical

Working with Kara truly was a treat. She was punctual and arrived at the planned time. Kara's personality was bubbly and professional. She was open to our ideas and suggestions. Kara kept up with our banter and joined in as well. She was a wonderful photographer to work with and would definitely recommend her to others.

Engagement Photos

Kara helped make the best weekend of my life a reality!!

She was patient through many ups and downs during scheduling and was incredibly professional in handling some of the curve balls thrown at us from our venue. Kara was so passionate about her work and this was directly reflected in the quality and result of the photos. I couldn't ask for a better person to work with, my fiance and I felt relaxed and focused on the engagement shoot, Kara had everything else covered. I will try and hire Kara again as our wedding photographer. I can't stress it enough, Kara was such a pleasure to work with, and most importantly a very real and genuine person.

If you're reading this review look no further, hire Kara she is amazing!
