I found Yang on Instagram while viewing our venue's page and the photographers that others used there. I immediately liked the quality and lighting of Yang's photos. I checked out his website and liked his personal touch so I reached out and he got back to me right away, which is so nice when so many other vendors have you waiting for awhile. We met Yang and everything from start to finish was done thoughtfully, was well organized, explained clearly and the product was high quality! Yang was dependable, professional and easy going! And he's such a nice guy! We had a blast taking pictures on our wedding day and he added so much warmth and joy to the day! He sent us some pictures a few days after the wedding to give us a sneak peak! We were so excited and they came out great! And then a couple weeks later we received the rest and they look so good! The quality is so good and he captured great moments from the night! As we looked at them it brought those moments to life and brought us so much joy!

We had a great experience working with Yang from beginning to end. Yang was very friendly, professional and easy to work with. He was very responsive whenever I reached out via email or text. He helped us be comfortable in front of the camera (my husband doesn't particularly like to take photos haha). He was patient with our families and the various family combos they wanted photos of. We were introduced to Yang’s work by a friend of a friend who had Yang photographed their wedding last year at the same venue. It was helpful that he was familiar with our venue and gave us some tips. His photography aesthetic aligns very well with what we were looking for — bright, happy, romantic! The turn around time for our photos was fast as well. We highly recommend Yang for your wedding or special occasion!

Thank you, Yang and your team for capturing our special day! We are very happy with how the gallery turned out! :D

A good friend of mine recommended to consider Yang Lu Photography for my wedding. Choosing a wedding photographer is not an easy task. My husband and I interviewed a few vendors, but Yang sent out because of his neat presentation. After our first video call, we knew exactly what to expect and everything was clear and easy. I asked like 1000 questions and Yang passionately answered all of them. After talking to several other photographers we did not doubt that we only wanted Yang Lu for our wedding.

The process: Yang created a rough timeline with recommendations. We had 4 video appointments in total: initial, mid-way, final, and extra final (we had to re-make our timeline due to daylight saving and we had to meet again to see what could be done)

Our package: we picked the most popular option with 2 photographers. I was skeptical if we needed 2 photographers, but in the end, I am so happy we picked 2. 2photographers mean more angles and a higher chance to capture those special moments.

Payment: Yang offers multiple different packages and a very convenient way of paying in incremental amounts, we had 3 payments, first (when we signed the contract), mid-way, and final.

Challenge: Our wedding was on Nov 5th, 2023 which was the day of daylight savings, and we didn't know about it till a week before our appointment. Originally we didn't plan to have the first look, but because we lost one hour of daylight we decided to change it and Yang was happy to assist in creating a new timeline

The day of: Yang arrived on site on time and started working right away. When you hire Yang you don't need to worry about anything, he knows what he is doing and you can just enjoy your day. That is what I was doing, I trusted him 100% and I am very happy I did.

The result: The wedding gallery was ready in 3!! weeks after the wedding, my husband and I were pleasantly surprised because we were expecting them in a month. Fist teaser was ready almost the next day after the wedding we were so surprised and so happy to see some of our beautiful wedding pictures so soon. Wedding pictures turned out STUNNING! I can't even count how many of them are my the most favorites!
The section of the photo gallery that I absolutely love is the first dance, dancing, and grand exit. I want to highlight that Yang did some black-and-white versions of our pictures and they are THE BEST!

TLDR: Book Yang if you want photos you can look back on in 10 years and feel the emotions and like you're reliving the whole experience again.

Yang was the first vendor we booked probably 2 years in advance once we decided on a wedding date. Throughout the whole process he was professional, friendly, and communicative. My husband and I fell in love with his photos and the way they told a story. We love the beautiful Instagram posed photos (which Yang took), but it was more important we also had a photographer who could capture the candid moments and the details that would help us relive the whole day. Our wedding day was longgg, meaning we had two tea ceremonies, a western ceremony, and a dinner reception all at different locations. Somehow Yang powered through it all, was energetic, and made the whole process so much fun. It was especially heartwarming that he captured the moments at my house before the tea ceremony when my mom was setting up, and the subtle details like the calendar on the wall. These details may seem insignificant to some, but it really meant a lot to me. While we had some down time, Yang never stopped working and suggested we take some portraits and also details of our wedding rings, shoes, etc. Not to mention, he gave us sneak peaks within a week and delivered the whole gallery within two weeks of our wedding. I highly recommend Yang to anyone looking for pictures that really speak 1000 words.

Yang captured our wedding day 8.20.23 so perfectly!
Not only that but he made the time leading up to our wedding day easy as well. He was flexible with his photography packages to fit our needs, he was very responsive to any questions we had, and his obvious passion and knowledge about photographing weddings really put our minds at ease.
On the day of, Yang and his second shooter Benji were early and suggested we arrive early too in order to get the shots we wanted in. Yang was professional, but also so fun to hang out with while we took photos. He was everything everywhere all at once, but did so gracefully and in a way that wasn’t disruptive or distracting to us or our guests.
Our photos were ready way faster than we expected and every one of them is shot and edited so tastefully and beautifully. Deciding which ones to post and print is going to be so hard because we love all of them!
We can’t thank Yang and Benji enough for capturing our perfect day and 100% recommend @yangluphotography to anyone who’s in the market for a photographer!

Yang was our wedding photographer this fall and we are seriously really happy with his work. Yang is friendly, engaging, super easy to work with, reliable, and highly professional. We had a few calls before the event where we got to know each other and discuss the schedule and details. On our big day, he arrived on time and despite being the solo photographer, managed to capture all of our important moments from multiple angles without us even noticing his presence! Yang is not only technically amazing at his craft, but he really knows weddings inside and out and it shows. He captured our emotions and memories from the day perfectly! For a large part of our wedding day, we worked directly with him to shoot our getting ready, couple's portraits, and first look. Working with him really put us at ease on an otherwise stressful day. For our group photos, he took great care to make sure everyone was posed correctly and looking their best. Plus we were seriously impressed that he knew both Mandarin and Cantonese and was able to direct both of our families! The photos were delivered ahead of his promised timeline and they are absolutely breathtaking. We highly recommend Yang!

Working with Yang for both our engagement and wedding photos was an absolute delight. His talent and passion for photography shone through in every aspect of his work. From the initial consultation to receiving our final wedding photos, Yang exceeded our expectations.

Yang seamlessly captured the essence of our special day, preserving genuine emotions and intimate moments. His attention to detail and ability to seize candid shots were exceptional. Not only that, he made being in front of the camera fun! The resulting collection of photographs felt like true works of art.

Not only was his photography outstanding, but his professionalism and customer service were remarkable. Yang was attentive to our preferences, responsive to our needs, and coordinated effortlessly with other vendors. He made us feel valued and prioritized throughout the entire process.

We highly recommend Yang to any couple in search of a photographer who goes above and beyond. His talent, passion, and dedication create lifelong memories that we will forever cherish.

Thank you, Yang, for capturing our special day in such a remarkable way!

We are sooo happy and grateful to have Yang as our wedding photographer!!! We have known Yang from college and have seen Yang's work on IG and facebook over the years, so we were already confident with Yang's expertise to begin with. But wow, his performance, style, and final pictures were actually all above our expectations! Not only did he deliver the most perfect wedding photos, but he also created a wonderful photography experience with us and our family and friends. We were comfortable with him walking us through everything. He found all the beautiful spots to photograph even though it was his first time at Hollins House. He has great energy, is super experienced and is good at communicating with people. I also appreciated how calm he was as I remembered turning to him for reassurance during the few stressful moments of the day. We got the final photos fast also. Overall, he is an amazing photographer and we would highly recommend Yang for his services! Thank you Yang for your awesome work and making our wedding day so memorable!

Yang was an absolute delight to work with from beginning to end and we cannot recommend him enough. He worked tirelessly capturing our wedding reception of 200 people without a hitch and we could not be more thankful. Most importantly, however, the pictures came out beautifully. Yang is amazing at his craft and it shows. We received so many compliments on how the lighting perfectly captured the many happy wedding moments. My husband and I are elated to have had Yang save these memories for us, and we look forward to looking back at these moments for many years to come.

My husband and I both know that finding the right photographer to capture your special day is important to help your remember it years later, and were very excited that Yang was able to capture our day beautifully and genuinely! His experience was also super helpful trying to figure out our timeline and determine what shots we wanted. We also had Yang did our engagement shoot as well, and did an excellent job capturing us as a couple with the slight theme I wanted for the shoot. I highly recommend Yang!
