After graduating NYU with his bachelor’s in Culture and Communication Studies, Anthony decided to venture out on his own and founded Anthony Vazquez Inc. He has since traveled the world in the pursuit of his dream: to create edgy and hip wedding images. Anthony’s extraordinary, out-of-the-box wedding imagery creates spectacular and timeless photos for his clients. His work has graced the pages of magazines around the country and continues to thrill clients from coast to coast…..and beyond. 

Anthony, a PPA member, is committed to sharing his passion for wedding photography with others and is also committed to the communication of new ideas and techniques. His goals are to have all who are dedicated to wedding photography exceed their boundaries, be able to fuse their joy in their work with an exceptional product…and be recognized in the industry and by the public as not only the very best at what they do, but as the artists they truly are.

Congratulations David Wagner!

Congratulations to David Wanger who sold his print "Abandonment" that was on exhibit at the Newtown Hardware House!

David also presented  Dave the owner of Newtown Hardware his print of the Philadelphia Phillies. 

Newtown Hardware House

The exhibit in the window at Newtown Hardware is now over. Thanks to the hardware store and owner Dave, for allowing us to hang our prints in his window. And thanks to all who participated in the exhibit, you did a great job. We got a lot of positive feedback from everyone who stopped by to look at it. Many people did not know the hardware store might have to close. So I hope we brought awareness to the community, and the store continues to stay open. In fact, Dave, the owner of the store was very pleased with the exhibit, and said we can do it again next year!
