Point State Park portraits in Pittsburgh, PA

“I did an extensive research for our engagement photoshoot, looking for someone who could capture the natural moments of us rather than posing directly at the camera, and I found Lisa’s portfolio to be exactly what I was looking for. Lisa was beyond pleasant to work with. Her personality was also very charming which helped a lot along the way, because we were both amateurs at posing. She brought her assistant for our photoshoot, Paul, who was also as charming. I received my engagement photos in the USB last week and as expected, the pictures were amazing. Our families love them too. It’s totally worth it to spend a little bit extra money to get all the photos, especially when the work was excellent and the pictures turn out very beautiful. If our wedding was in town, Lisa West would definitely be our wedding photographer. I highly recommend Lisa for anyone who is looking for a photographer that is personable, professional and “super on-time” with her work. I have heard other photographers that promised you one day, but you wouldn’t get your photos until weeks/months later, so be careful with your choice because of course, everyone is excited to see their beautiful photos. Thank you Lisa and Paul for all the hard work.”

“Lisa was so so easy and pleasant to work with from the very beginning of our planning process. She was professional at our first meeting; she brought samples of her work and forms that she uses to give you a preview of her planning. Lisa immediately asked us our style (candid, formal, etc.) and stuck to it on our big day. Throughout the planning process, she responded VERY quickly, which I personally appreciate more than ever, and always answered every part of my email. She reviewed the timeline of the entire wedding weekend, from the time the girls began getting ready to the end of the reception. This did not only help plan for pictures, but it in turn helped us as the couple work out final logistics of the wedding. I was pleasantly surprised to find that she attends rehearsals, giving her a chance to check out the venue and preview photo opps, spend time with the wedding party and families, and also made for some great additional shots. Lisa made a point to check in with us often, which was kind and relieving to know that she is on the ball. The day of, she had an exact agenda in mind for pictures and kept the pace moving while also allowing for our own ideas and preferences to happen. We just recently received our USB of our pictures in a very timely manner and they are GORGEOUS. We could tell we would like them from the immediate feedback she gave us as she took the photos. (After taking a few, she would check them out on her camera and express how great they looked, complimenting us and telling us how excited she is for us to see them—suspenseful, but reassuring!) I have already made a book for both of our moms and have gotten so many compliments on how they turned out. The credit all goes to Lisa! She is worth every penny, and photographs are not something to go cheap on for your wedding.”

“Lisa West is absolutely amazing! She was the photographer for our wedding, April 2017. She also photographed my sister’s wedding in 2013, I knew she would photograph my wedding too once I saw her pictures! Your wedding day is the best day of your life, the memories will fade, but the photos will last forever, and Lisa captured every single moment of our day beautifully! Lisa herself is extremely kind, caring, and professional. She met with us twice before our wedding day to go over things. She also came to our rehearsal the day before the wedding so she could scope out spots for photos the next day, which really showed us she wanted everything to be perfect! The day of the wedding, Lisa and her assistant were with us from the moment we were getting ready to the end of the reception. They were discreet and never in the way, but they captured EVERY moment, every smile, laugh, etc. We get to relive our wedding day through the photos Lisa took! Our photos are absolutely beautiful. I look at them almost every day! If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, or any event, look no further than Lisa West, you WILL NOT be disappointed!”

Wedding Photography“My wife and I spent quite a bit of time looking for a photographer for our wedding. Many photographers nowadays are people who purchase a DSLR camera and then take pictures and then hide all the blemishes by either over-exposure or by making every picture black and white. Although black and white pictures can really change the dynamic of a photograph, it shouldn’t be done to hide poorly taken photos. Once we came across Lisa West and met her in person and saw her work, we knew she was the absolute best choice for our wedding. She had wonderful suggestions, was always on time, easy to get in touch with, and just a real pleasure to work with. I truly cannot say enough great things about her and her work. She also brought along two other photographers with her who were wonderful and extremely respectful. One of my biggest pet peeve’s of wedding photographers is when they get in the way of all the guests and take away from the ceremony. You could not even tell that Lisa and the other two photographers were even there. Everything was absolutely perfect. We got countless comments from friends and family at the wedding about how great the photographers were. Once we showed them the wedding album that Lisa made for us, they were in complete shock. They could not believe that the album came from the photographer and thought that we had contacted a company to make it for us out of her photographs. There were many comments about how they wished they had a photo album like that for their wedding. If you’re wondering whether or not to get the album, I highly suggest it. Lisa gave us a link to all of our photos online and had us go through and pick out which pictures we liked the best for our album and then she made a proof and sent it along for approval prior to having the book made.
Thank you Lisa for making our special day one we will be able to remember forever.”

“Lisa West’s talent is matched only by her professionalism, creativity, patience and genuine love of her furry subjects. The moment she came into our home, our dogs knew that she was someone special and she worked effortlessly with them to capture their true spirits and souls on film. Lisa took a quiet command of the photo session and offered many creative ideas, all of which turned out beautifully. She was also a great sport. I can not think of a better way to have made memories of our fuzzy family members and I could not have found a better person than Lisa to do it. Lisa’s photos move me. Other photographers take pictures. Lisa West creates art.”

“I don’t know where to begin. You are talented and so good and OMG and they are so wonderful and I had tears in my eyes and oh wow and oh wow and OMG and this is all I am saying. I keep going over and over these pictures and I just love them all. Very touching shots of me holding Abby and you got a natural shots of me,too. I am so happy and will be happy all the time when I get those hanging on my wall. The tough part is picking out what I love. It will be very difficult. The very best part is, I am so grateful that I had this done and this is the “BEST GIFT” ever. I just can’t stop talking about you and your work is way above and beyond!”

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. – Corinthians 13:4-7
