Pamela Anticole is a Pittsburgh artist who began her freelance photographer career in Pittsburgh as a photojournalist for greater Pittsburgh’s local newspaper The Valley News Dispatch.
A professional photographer trained at the university level, Pamela is a journalist with a unique approach to storytelling: she uses both photographs and words to weave the reader through her observations and bring him/her to her point of view.
Since becoming a mother, her new perspective invades her photo projects and permeates her subject matter… She is currently working on a professional documentary photo story that encompasses the personal identity crisis that motherhood presents, particularly for women who suffered from anxiety and depression prior to becoming a mother.
She is interviewing mothers who travel, those who continue to seek out their freedom after becoming a parent and travel alone, and investigating the emotional journey to arrive at this place of balancing motherhood and sense of personal self. One of many creative Pittsburgh artists, she brings the fresh female perspective to her documentary photography projects.
Pittsburgh Artist
As a freelance photographer in Pittsburgh, Pamela brings a fresh, candid approach to normally difficult subjects through her easy and relaxed demeanor. She operates a family and event photography business in her hometown of Pittsburgh, and is continuously on her own journey of building her sense of self outside of parenthood.
Pamela has been awarded photography awards from FPJA and the Documentary Family Awards, and guest published in blogs and websites online. She is available for freelance photography work as well as speaking engagements. Her work is available to be gallery printed and published in local exhibitions in the Pittsburgh area as well as worldwide.
She is currently working on her first book, an inspirational journal and how-to guide for moms who want to learn how to document their children growing up. You can follow along in her personal photography journey on her Instagram account, or via her wedding site.
