Lead photographer of Carmen May Photography. I have a passion for capturing breathtaking engagements, weddings, and baby and family milestone sessions! My work is often described as soft, natural, romantic, and timeless...but I just like
to think of it as a real extension of your story. I'm always looking for candid
moments, unique details, and personal touches to document every second in a
way that will immediately take you back in time.
Today, I live with my husband turned second-shooter, Chad, and we have a beautiful baby girl named Noah that neither of us can ever get enough of! She's our little assistant! Living in southwestern PA has given us the opportunity to photograph the best scenery in the Mid-Atlantic. The Youghiogheny river, waterfalls, and mountain scenery is right in our backyard and our clients love meeting us in these kind of places! When I'm not behind my camera, I love making our baby smile, hanging out in a coffeeshop (or working there, let's be honest), casual hiking in Ohiopyle, making pottery whenever I get the chance, doing a Peloton workout, dreaming about the next snowboard or national park trip we'll take as a family, and eating all the dessert I can get my hands on!
Hi, I'm Carmen!!
I N Q U I R E WI T H C A R M E N , T O D A Y !
THOSE BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS OF YOUR DREAMS? I'VE GOT YOU COVERED!
I believe that your wedding & portrait photos can look straight out of the dreamiest magazine while still feeling real, unposed, and totally authentic to you. Beautiful pictures are awesome, but what I really love is making sure you feel relaxed enough in front of my camera to let your love story shine through. That's where the magic happens!
My husband, Chad is my incredible second-shooter. Together, we are the perfect mix of laid back, organized, fun, and efficient. Beyond weddings, Chad is a wonderful dad, enjoys kayaking in his spare time, reading books, eating all my cookies, and watching combat sports! Hoping for a little more easy-going, fun on your big day? You just found your match.
Meet Chad

YOU MIGHT BE OUR BRIDE, IF...
You're excited about your beautiful wedding dress, but you don't care one bit if it gets a little dirt on it. All in the name of adventure, right?!
You're a little more free-spirited than traditional. You envision your wedding on top of a mountain or deep in the woods. Even if you're getting married in the church down the road, you're still incorporating unique elements into your day.
You love photos that are laid back and candid, but you still want your photos to remain classic for years down the road. You're a best of both worlds kind of girl.
Let's Meet!
