About

Your wedding is much more than just your ‘big day.’ It’s much more than the beautiful flowers, decadent cake and your stunning dress. It’s much more than timelines, song cues and coordinated dances. It’s much more than champagne flutes, wedding favors and an open bar. Don’t get me wrong, I love a gorgeous dress and a kickass dance just as much as the next girl. I admire and appreciate all the details you have spent months, maybe even years planning; but the way I see it is your wedding day is just one page in your ever-growing love story and I am here to capture your entire story.

BONUS: I love first looks, and this is why! Check out a Weddings Photographer point of view by clicking this link! http://yael.photos/yaels-tip-of-the-week-vol-9/

Yael is the perfect choice

Having Yael as our photographer brought such a sense of calm to our wedding day! With so much going on, having someone like Yael there to quietly and confidently guide us through the photos was a huge relief. She made everything feel easy, even in moments that could have been stressful.

One of the things that stood out the most was her incredible ability to handle our family dynamics. We have a big family with lots of personalities, and Yael managed it all with grace and patience. She knew exactly how to get everyone organized without feeling rushed or flustered, and she captured the most beautiful moments of us together. It felt like she was part of the family, and everyone was so comfortable around her. If you're looking for a photographer who not only delivers stunning photos but also brings a calm, professional energy to the day, especially with big families, Yael is the perfect choice!

As a bride, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Yael was more than just a photographer, she was a calming presence and a true asset on one of the most important days of our lives. She took the time to understand our vision and made sure every special moment was captured beautifully. If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, creative, and truly invested in making your day unforgettable, Yael is the one! I can't recommend her enough. Our wedding photos are everything we hoped for and more!

Dream to work with!

Yael is an absolute dream to work with! From the moment we connected, Yael made everything so easy and stress-free. She’s incredibly personable, making us feel comfortable right away, which was really important to us. Her energy is warm and welcoming, and she truly cares about getting to know her couples.

Yael guided us effortlessly through the process while making us laugh and feel like ourselves. We’re so grateful for the way she captured our love—every image is filled with the joy and connection we felt during our time together.

Wow wow wow!

Wow, wow, wow! Is all I can say! Yael did a beautiful job photographing our wedding! We aren’t big on being in pictures but she made it easy and fun. After our wedding, my husband even agreed to do future family photos, if Yael was the one shooting them! Thank you Yael for the photos that make us smile and feel loved!

Yael is a legend!!

Yael was a part of the party, not just the photographer, but someone who danced and sang with us. Someone who took part in our traditions and made us feel understood in a way that really is unmatchable. We are so grateful that our friends recommended Yael. She made such a difference and we couldn't have imagined anyone else taking our wedding photos. Thank you Yael! You really are legendary!!

Yael is the right person for the job!

Yael and her team were exactly what Nat and I needed on our wedding day. She made us comfortable. She was professional and easy to get along with. She didn't take things too seriously, but also seriously enough when it mattered. She was able to get people moving in a nice but assertive manor. And with all that, her photos went above and beyond what we expected. She really was everything we needed her to be. Yael is the right person for the job!

Yael is REALLY fantastic at what she does!

My husband and I have a rule, we don't do photos unless Yael is the one taking them. We fell in love with her energy and her product when we saw her photographing one my best friends weddings. She just gets in there and doesn't hold back in the best way. She made us feel comfortable instead of stiff, she makes us feel beautiful and natural instead of awkward and she helped move the day a long without being bossy. Yael is really great at what she does!

Just incredible and lovely!

Yael felt like part of the family from the moment she walked into our wedding day. Maybe it's because she was so helpful before the wedding, maybe it's because Yael just seamlessly fit in with my bridesmaids and all of our favorite people, but when she walked into the room, I felt a sense of calmness and that everything was going to work out. She was flexible but reassuring, she made my husband and my father in law feel relaxed in front of the camera (and that isn't easy), she danced with us, sang with us, celebrated us. Yael's photos made our wedding look even dreamer then I thought. Both my husband and I were speechless when we saw the sneak peek. Yael really did an amazing job and I would highly recommend her to all of my friends and anyone who asks!

Priceless if you ask me!

You hear horror stories from friends and families about wedding vendors ruining your wedding, but Yael was the exact opposite. She did everything with kindness and intention. She put us first and made sure we were as happy as we could be. She was able to photograph all of the family photos that we requested in a timely fashion and with such poise that my mom came up to me after and said "Yael was worth it, just for those thirty minutes of family photos." I thought Yael was the best wedding photographer for us and the gallery we received really captured the essence of who we are, the people that we adore and the love that we share. I will never get tired of seeing my husbands smiling face and loving expressions in our wedding photos. Priceless if you ask me!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
