What is the story behind Carly Ferraco Photography?

Hi, I’m Carly, from Carly Ferraco Photography, a Pittsburgh wedding photographer specializing in light, bright, timeless imagery with an editorial yet documentary feel. I’m based in Upper Saint Clair and serve couples throughout Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania.
I believe your wedding photos should feel effortless, romantic, and true to you. My style blends natural storytelling with refined direction, meaning I’ll gently guide you when needed. At the same time, I’m also always watching for the in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening. The hand squeeze before you walk down the aisle. The quiet tear from a parent. The way your friends absolutely lose it on the dance floor.

I’m known for my clean, true-to-life editing, calm presence, and organized approach. I help build photography timelines, collaborate seamlessly with planners and vendors, and make sure your day flows beautifully. My goal is for you to feel completely taken care of — so you can be fully present while I document every meaningful detail.

Whether you’re planning a formal black-tie celebration in the city, a tented estate wedding, an intimate backyard gathering, or a meaningful elopement with just your closest family, I approach every wedding with intention and care. No matter the setting or size, your story deserves to be captured beautifully and authentically.
My hope is that when you look back at your images decades from now, you don’t just see how everything looked — you remember exactly how it felt.

Book her now!

I seriously cannot say enough good things about Carly. She absolutely KILLED our wedding photos. She made everyone feel so comfortable the entire day and was so much fun to work with! She truly made the whole experience so easy and enjoyable for not only us, but our entire wedding party!

And the PICTURES 😭 I am obsessed. Her photos are so vivid and colorful, and she captured the true emotions, love, and FUN of our wedding day so perfectly. From all the sweet little moments to everyone laughing and having the best time dancing, she caught it ALL. Nothing feels forced or overly posed, and I think that’s what makes her pictures so special. Looking through them genuinely feels like reliving the entire day all over again!

And can we talk about the fact that she got us our ENTIRE wedding gallery back in just TWO WEEKS! I swear every time I look through them I find another favorite.

She was such a huge part of making our day as amazing as it was, and I am so so happy we chose her. We have the most beautiful memories to look back on forever because of her. I genuinely could not recommend her enough. If you’re considering booking her, DO IT! 💜

Best Experience Ever

I wish I could give Carly & her team 10 stars. Working with them was the most incredible experience. During our engagement shoot, we instantly felt comfortable with her. She is so friendly & bubbly, after an hour we felt we had known her for years. Her husband & her second shooter were just as friendly & professional. They made the entire process so easy & enjoyable. The photos & videos came out INCREDIBLE. They’re everything we could have imagined & more. Choosing them was the best choice in all of our wedding planning process & we’d do it again & again.

Picture Perfect!

Carly and Mike captured our wedding day perfectly. From start to finish, Carly was beyond generous with her time, creativity and talent.

The engagement photo session included with our wedding package was a perfect way to get to know Carly and her shooting style. I was nervous about posing or acting for the camera, but Carly kept both of us so natural and candid to capture our true personalities.

Carly sent us a survey in advance of our wedding that helped us think through everything we needed and allowed her to have all the details on hand the day of the wedding.

On the wedding day, we had Carly as our main photographer, her husband Mike as our videographer and Samantha Fitzhenry as our second photographer. The whole team was so easy to work with. They kept us on schedule and captured all the moments we wanted on film. At the same time though, they did not intrude on our day at all. They captured us without pulling us away from the emotions and moments of the day. By the end, they were part of the party, and we couldn’t be more thankful for that.

Her turnaround time was lightning fast! Despite the huge volume of photos to process, we had a sneak peak with hundreds of photos within the same week. We had thousands within a couple weeks, and more are still coming!

Our biggest advice besides going with Carly as your photographer is GET THE VIDEO! The video was ready within a couple weeks, and it brought both of us to tears to see and hear the day. The editing style was personal and so meaningful. We can’t wait to show Carly and Mike’s photos and videos to our kids one day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
