The Absolute Best Photographer!

From the first conversation I had with Tara I knew she was going to be the perfect photographer for us! Tara first did our engagement photos which were soo much fun, Tara knew all of the right spots to take us around the city to get the right pictures. We joked and laughed a ton while Tara was able to capture great photos for us. On our wedding day Tara and her assistant photographer couldn't have been more perfect! The photos they captured were absolutely stunning!!! The angles and scenes they shot tell our wedding story just how we remember it. Tara captured so many memorable candid moments for us that I am forever grateful for her. Even our posed photos don't look or feel posed. All of our photos have movement and life to them. She and her team were professional the whole day and added so much joy and laughter throughout the process. You're going to spend your whole wedding day with your photographers and we felt like we could hang out with Tara all the time. I would HIGHLY recommend Tara for any photography needs you have.

Stunning photographs perfectly captured our day

If you want to have the most stunning photos with the most easy going photographer, pick Tara!! She captured our day perfectly even through a rain storm and last minute change of plans. Our photos are beyond gorgeous and we love them. Tara captured the heart of the day and noting felt staged or forced which was very important to us. Thank you Tara for your amazing work!

Best Photographer Ever!

Tara was so amazing to work with for our July 25, 2020! The thing I loved most about her was how CHILL she was. When speaking to wedding photographers, sometimes I felt overwhelmed with how much information they wanted to know about me and my significant other. Tara was so laid back and made me feel at ease immediately when I spoke with her, which I really appreciated! She's so sweet and beyond talented-- I can't stop looking at the photos she took of our engagement and of our wedding! She also saved the day on our wedding day when my husband's brother got oil on his shirt-- Tara swooped in like superwoman and got the oil out with Dawn dish soap! She was the true MVP of the wedding. I would hire her over and over again. Thank you, Tara, for capturing the best day of our lives!

It's hard to say what I loved most about working with Tara - obviously her talent is unmatched, but I think it's her passion for photography that really sets her apart. She truly LOVES what she does, and goes above and beyond for her clients. When shooting with her, she is always ready to capture a special moment. As a bride, I was confident that she would not only provide beautiful formal photos on my wedding day, but also the fleeting candid moments that only a true photographer can capture. She is the perfect balance of fun, talented, and professional. Within a few days, we had several wedding blogs wanting to feature the wedding based on just her teaser photos! That is a testament to HER incredible talent and work ethic. We recommend her at the highest level!

Tara is absolutely amazing! She was our wedding photographer for our wedding in July. She is extremely reliable and talented. Our wedding photos were exactly what we wanted, and her prices were very reasonable. She is also fun to work with, and she is very flexible. I hope to use her again in the future for newborn and family pictures.

We owe a huge thank you to Tara & Stacy from Tara Bennett Photography for helping make our wedding so perfect! Tara and Stacy are professional, helpful, and friendly and have a creative style in shooting photographs! I had a detailed list of moments/images that I wanted captured on our wedding day and they made sure to capture every moment plus more. Tara was very prompt at responding to emails – day and night. She had great feedback as far as helping us plan the timeline of our wedding day to ensure that we could capture all of the moments that we wanted covered in various locations. The timing was perfect, with a few minutes to spare before the ceremony. Tara was cogitative in using natural sunlight appropriately for our wedding pictures so that pictures came out clear and sharp. Tara also took into account the timing of the sunset and took us outside to capture some beautiful pictures! Tara and Stacy are passionate about capturing every special moment as it happens from various angles. I love looking at our wedding pictures and how STUNNING each and every image is! They made the day more enjoyable by knowing that they were capturing all the pictures that we wanted to one day look back on. I myself love to take lots of pictures and to make sure that everything is captured, so they really eased my fears of missing something by being present for the whole day! We highly recommend Tara Bennett Photography to anyone who is looking for BEAUTIFUL AND STUNNING pictures! Tara Bennett Photography will remain our top recommendation when talking with family, friends, and really anyone who is looking for a photographer in Western Pennsylvania. THANK YOU TARA & STACY! You really helped to make our wedding day so perfect and special for Taylor and I!

Tara was recommended to us by mutual friends and we are so lucky she traveled to our MD wedding from PA! After researching many photographers we found Tara's rates to be very competitive and really appreciated the thoughtful wedding package she put together for us. After an engagement shoot with Tara the wedding was a breeze- she really made us feel comfortable and it showed in the pictures! At the wedding Tara felt more like an old friend than a "vendor" and our family and friends all remarked how relaxed and calm she was. Tara was very responsive during all of the planning, but she surpassed our expectations by having our pictures ready before our honeymoon was even over! Tara's pictures of our Great Gatsby Themed wedding turned out beautifully! Without ever seeing the Ceresville Mansion where we got married she had an eye for the property and captured amazing pictures that made the mansion a beautiful complement to our wedding. We recommend Tara for your wedding, engagement, family, or personal photography needs!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
