more about me:

Hi, I’m Eli Sakmar.

Photography has been a growing passion of mine since high school. I love to travel—not just to capture the world through my lens, but to experience different perspectives and ways of life. Alongside my work in childcare, photography has become an outlet for creativity and connection.

Over the past six years, I’ve been freelancing and photographing a wide range of subjects: couples, engagements, weddings, senior portraits, families, products, studio sessions, live events, bands, and real estate. I’ve had the opportunity to photograph homes for real estate listings across Western Pennsylvania and beyond, and I’m currently studying for my real estate license to further expand my work in this space.

My photography has taken me across 7 countries and 30 U.S. states—each destination offering new inspiration and stories to tell through images. I’m constantly growing in my craft, learning something new every day, and always looking for the next great shot.
