About Anchor Studios Photography

Edgar Paniagua

Owner / Lead Photographer

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

My goal as your photographer is to capture your milestones as candidly as possible. This is why over the years, I've worked really hard to build a unique photography style that can tell your story in the most fun way!

    Anchor Studios Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Edgar's communication was clear, responsive, and friendly, making the process of working with him so easy. On the day of the wedding, Edgar made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Our photos are more beautiful than we could have ever imagined - bright, high-quality images that perfectly captured all the special moments of our big day. We are thrilled with the value and quality of the work, and we would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding.

    I met Edgar, the owner of Anchor Studios several years ago when we both lived in Houston, TX. We met because I had just finished my degree and was looking for a photographer - he actually took my graduation photos! When it finally came time to book our wedding photography, I knew I wanted to go with him - no questions. His communication style is open and easy. He is responsive to all questions and requests which made the planning process a breeze. The quality of his work is truly top-notch, with beautifully curated photos that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. He is incredibly accommodating and guided us through every step of the way. He didn't hesitate when I even asked him to travel out to California for the wedding. It was awesome to have someone who is like an old friend and has seen us grow over the years capture our special day. Edgar, Anchor Studios Photography, was the perfect addition to our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with the memories they've preserved for us.

    Anchor Studios Photography was a pleasure to work with for our engagement photos! From the very first interaction, Edgar was helpful, relaxing, and fun to be around. They put my fiance and I right at ease, as we had never had professional photos taken before. The final photos turned out beautifully, with great tones, quality, and creative compositions that really captured the joy and love we have for each other. We’ve received so many compliments on our photos, I’m so excited to see how our engagement photos will be!

  • Would book a dozen times over if we could!

    Edgar did such an incredible job with our engagement photos. He had great ideas and directed us without making it seem stiff and got some wonderful candids. He totally achieved the aesthetic we were going for and I couldn’t be happier. Will be booking for our wedding if he’s not booked already!
