Taylor became more than just a wedding photographer after our experience with hiring her for our engagement and wedding photos. She captured our special day perfectly and was also so enjoyable to work with throughout the entire process. Not only were our photographs absolutely beautiful, but she was also there for me when I needed to fix my veil, hold my belongings, and even feed me a snack when I was getting hangry during photos. She went above and beyond, and we are forever grateful.
Taylor is both professional and personable. I have been a bridesmaid in weddings before where the photographer and crew made it feel like a fast-paced production, but Taylor made it feel like a friend was behind the camera. She hypes you and your group up to capture the most authentic photographs, while making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She was able to pose and capture all of our “must have portraits” with our large bridal parties and families and still maintain our timeline which was definitely a challenge in itself. Her creativeness and skill combined with her kindness made Taylor Ollason Photography one of our favorite vendors for our special day.

Professionalism at its finest! Even if she’s just trying to make you laugh! Made us feel important from our first meeting to our last photo of the night! Even after all was settled and done, we were still her number one! Sending us updates and teasers. Top notch!

My husband and I have known Taylor since highschool, so when we got engaged we KNEW she had to shoot our wedding photos; and we were so blown away at how perfectly she captured our day! Taylor is so incredibly talented and easy to work with. She takes any awkwardness you feel posing for photos away and makes the entire experience so much fun! Taylor took the time to really understand the look we were going for and curated our vibe perfectly. Our pictures look and feel like US as a couple. I'm truly in love with our pictures and I can't imagine having a better person to capture our day. WE LOVE YOU TAYLOR!!!!

Taylor is an incredibly talented photographer. She curated the vibe we wanted so beautifully, and was so awesome to work with. I appreciated her ability to focus everyone to get amazing shots all while staying ahead of schedule. She is really knowledgeable about a lot of different photography techniques, which resulted in some really beautiful variation in style and tone of our pictures. I'm truly in love with our pictures and I can't thank her enough for her support on the big day.

Taylor is AMAZING. We had her for our engagement shoot and our wedding day (which was this past weekend) and she was fantastic to work with for both. She got exactly the vibe we were both wanting from our photos and the photos she gave us sneak peeks of are SO good. She was also so helpful with planning the timeline of the day and had so much information about other aspects of wedding planning. Taylor slays so much and was so fun to work with; I HIGHLY recommend.

Taylor was my favorite vendor to work with. Someone gave me advice that the day of your wedding the most important vendor is your photographer because they will be with you the entire day. Having Taylor by our side on the wedding day was amazing. She was able to make us feel comfortable on some of the most stressful moments. We both looked to her as a bit of comfort because of how warm and welcoming her personality is. Not only is she an amazing person but she is unbelievably talented. Seeing friends and family after our wedding the first thing they would say was how amazing our photos were. You will never be disappointed if you go with Taylor. She is absolutely amazing and I would hire her again and again and again.

Taylor 10/10 KILLED the game as our wedding photog. Our first shoot with Taylor was our engagement shoot a year prior to our wedding and my fiance was less than excited about it. However, leaving the shoot, he couldn't stop talking about how comfortable she made us feel, how she knew exactly how to place us and tell us what to do. He LOVED the experience (that's how you know she's the real deal.) Now onto our wedding day... Taylor was amazing all day. Everywhere we looked she was there snapping away. At one point we looked over and she was standing on her tippy toes on top of a table to get a shot (dedication.) In the midst of what is for sure a crazy wedding season due to COVID rescheduled weddings, I did not expect to get our entire wedding album back so quickly, but Taylor delivered the entire album about 2 weeks post-wedding. I truly think that your photographer is one of the most important vendors you'll have with you for your wedding day. Aside from your own memories, your photog has the job of recording the memories that you will be able to look at for the rest of your life. Choose Taylor- you will not be disappointed.

Taylor was so amazing to work with on my wedding day. Because I now live out of state, I was not able to physically meet with her prior to our wedding (for any engagement photos or boudoir, as hoped/preferred) but on the day of she made it feel like we have been friends, while remaining professional. Taylor made her self available for all questions I had and has a lot of resources for brides. She captured all of our most important photos with ease and made us all feel like supermodels all day! I am so glad I chose to work with her!

When looking for a photographer for our wedding we contacted a ton of people in the Pittsburgh area, there's SO MANY OPTIONS making me extremely overwhelmed. From the minute I talked to Taylor on the phone, I knew I needed to hire her. Taylor's wedding package included our engagement photos and save the dates on top of herself plus an additional photographer for our wedding day coverage. The price was honestly cheaper than I expected for all of that included in the bundle.
Taylor was incredible at our engagement shoot - my husband was fighting with alopecia at the time on both his beard and head and she was able to work the angles to avoid the spots but still get the most perfect pictures. We discussed my vision for save the date cards through text and only THREE days later they arrived at my doorstep - SO QUICK.
Leading up to wedding day, Taylor reached out to make sure she had the timeline exactly how I expected it in regards to her arriving and the basic plan of the day. Taylor's work on our wedding day was unreal. Her creative, energetic, friendly and go-with-the-flow personality took so much pressure off of my shoulders that day. She captured every moment of the day so perfectly. Taylor was so patient with my crazy pup who wouldn't sit still and was such a hype girl during shooting, it made me feel like a real queen in the moment. We hadn't even left the reception venue room yet at the end of the night and she was already sending me the most unbelievable sneak peaks! I can't say enough amazing things about Taylor.

Taylor and I have been communicating for the better part of this year. Due to the virus our wedding had been pushed back from May to August. She was wonderful during the whole planning process, checking in and ensuring everything would be perfect, which put my mind at ease during a very stressful time. She is so flexible and helpful with picture ideas prior to, and was basically our choreographer on the day of. Our wedding party was lively bunch and very easy going but we needed direction. Taylor was the perfect polite boss to keep the pictures (and the whole day over all) moving in a reasonable time frame. YOU NEED SOMEONE LIKE THIS ON YOUR WEDDING DAY! She is so professional yet fun, directive yet bubbly, a perfect combo. She is absolutely amazing and I couldn’t of imagined my special day without her. Highly recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to book her services again in the future.

Taylor was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. All of the photos turned out great. She had such wonderful ideas for different shots while also accommodating us on what we wanted done. Taylor makes the whole process very easy and is an absolute joy to have around at your wedding. Plus she got some really great candid shots when the dancing started.

Taylor was the perfect fit for our big day. She is so warm and fun, and everyone in our wedding party (9 bridesmaids, 8 groomsmen, whom she was amazing at handling, mind you) were all charmed by her. Planning the small details beforehand, the communication leading up to the wedding, day of combination of professionalism and talent she brought, topped off with the BEAUTIFUL wedding photos, she is honestly the ultimate package. Pittsburgh’s wedding gem.

Cannot recommend her enough! We used her for our engagement photos, and will be using her for our wedding day as well. Taylor was super flexible working around my fiancés limited military schedule, and made us feel extremely comfortable. I can be awkward around cameras and don't usually like PDA, but she gave us the best prompts to make our photos look absolutely stunning! Seriously don't even look anywhere else because she is the best!

Taylor is absolutely amazing both as a person and a photographer. She has an amazing eye for getting the perfect shots - I look at our pictures in amazement that she could take a basic backdrop of a few trees and make it look like a magical forest. She is so talented and makes the whole process enjoyable. We had so much fun with her doing our engagement shoot - my fiancé even said he had fun which is NOT what I was expecting him to say after 3 hours of photos lol. But Taylor has a way of making it a fun adventure - she’s truly amazing to work with. We can’t wait for our wedding day with her!!

Taylor was truly a pleasure to work with. I was lucky enough to know her from high school, then had the pleasure of seeing her in action at my best friends wedding. I knew she was the photographer for us. She was so easy to contact, came prepared, and truly listened to what we wanted. She went above and beyond our expectations. I recommend her to everyone! Taylor was able to capture our wedding day and the pictures are breathtaking. We will forever cherish them and always be grateful for her!

Taylor is absolutely AMAZING! She was the first photographer we met with for our wedding, and we knew after meeting her that we’d found our photographer. She is very detailed and has a laid back, friendly personality that makes you feel at ease and as if you’re working with a friend you’ve known for years! Looking at our pictures truly tells the story of our wedding day! She captured each moment beautifully and authentically. The photos do not look posed or forced but genuinely portray us. I love that she captured both the sentimental moments and the fun, silly moments between us and our friends and family! She was also quick to see an opportunity for a beautiful shot, pulling us outside for pictures when the sky looked beautiful after the rain. We could not be happier with our photos and would recommend Taylor 10 times out of 10!! Thank you so much, Taylor, for capturing our wedding day so beautifully!!

My husband and I used Taylor for our June 2017 wedding and I couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer. From our first meeting, I knew that she was the photographer I wanted. We met with several other wedding photographers who were either too expensive based on the quality of their portfolio or were not personable. Taylor was very informative, her portfolio was absolutely stunning, and she was genuinely excited to photograph our big day. She answered every question I had throughout the planning process and even was able to accommodate us when we changed the date of our wedding. Unfortunately, my husband broke his leg a week before the wedding and Taylor was forced to come up with different site locations for our photos and different poses that would hide his crutches and scooter. We love each and every one of our photos. I would use her over and over again. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and I recommend her to all of my friends that have recently gotten engaged! USE TAYLOR!

Taylor is incredible! Any nerves we had about booking a wedding photographer, immediately went out the door went we met Taylor for our engagement shoot. Halfway through the session, my now husband said, "Wow, this is fun!". And it was fun; with Taylor there is no stress, only enjoyment. Our engagement photos turned out amazing and I have no doubt that our wedding photos from this past weekend will turn out the same way. We highly recommend Taylor Ollason Photography to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in Pittsburgh!!

We feel so lucky to be working with Taylor throughout the wedding process! My fiance first reached out to Taylor to photograph the proposal--we went to high school with her and knew she was now a Pittsburgh-based photographer. When she sent us the photos she took a few days later, we absolutely knew we needed to have Taylor photograph our wedding as well! We recently met up with Taylor again this weekend to do engagement photos. I was really nervous about being awkward in front of the camera, but Taylor was great at giving instructions and making us feel totally comfortable with her. Taylor has been quick to respond to my many emails and has made this process so easy for us! We can't wait to have Taylor with us again for the wedding!

Taylor Ollason Photography photographed our wedding and soiree the evening before. She was professional, engaging, creative, easy to work with and joyful to be around -- and the net result was perfection. Her images are unusual and capture the feeling of the venue, the personalities of our guests, and the gamut of emotions we ran. The book of photos is extraordinary and represents our magical day with grace and style. She is the consummate photographer.

Taylor is amazing! We messaged her in the fall of 2016 for our Nov 2017 wedding. From the first meeting, I could tell she'd be our photographer. I was pretty nervous to pick a photographer (I mean we'll look at these photos for the rest of our life) but she was so calming and energetic, I had no worries. She answered all our questions and even explained things I didn't think to ask. Our engagement photos turned out so amazing, I can't wait to see the how our wedding photos will turn out! She's crazy talent, affordable, understanding, and makes you feel like you've known her your whole life. You seriously can't go wrong having Taylor photograph your special day!
