About

Meet Yeti — a seasoned photographer with over 14 years of experience and nearly 450 weddings captured across the globe, from Hungary to Slovenia. Known for his detailed eye, inclusive approach, and authentic storytelling, Yeti brings more than technical skill to the table — he brings heart, humanity, and humor.

At his core, Yeti is a people person. He thrives in spaces of connection and emotion, whether he's photographing bubbly newlyweds, soulful family portraits, or high-energy concerts under the iHeartRadio banner. His work spans weddings, boudoir, commercial sessions, and nonprofit storytelling — all delivered with the same signature blend of precision and personality.

His passion for real, raw moments is perhaps best exemplified through The Isaac Initiative, a project he founded after photographing a terminally ill child and his family in hospice. Though the organization ended for personal wellness reasons in 2021, the emotional impact of that experience still informs Yeti’s work today — encouraging him to document not just milestones, but the meaning behind them.

When he’s not shooting weddings (35–40 weekends a year, and yes, often for the cake), Yeti is building community, advocating for thoughtful storytelling, and creating space for people to be fully seen. He’s also a proud member of the Twin Cities Professional Photography Association.

If you’re looking for images that are as real as your relationships — grounded in care, honesty, and detail — Yeti is the one to call.

Hire Yeti, you won’t regret it!

Yeti is so damn funny! He’s professional, organized, but laid back. My whole family loved him, he kept us laughing the whole day. I do not think it would have been as successful or as fun without him. Our cake never showed up and he snuck away during dinner and brought back an ice cream cake with our name on it as a surprise. It was really nice! Our own family didn’t do that. lol He’s also a very good communicator and mediator, my family is a lot to handle and he did it with ease. He sent us a sneak peek a day or two after our wedding and the rest we got back 3 weeks later, right when we got back from our honeymoon. We’re definitely going to have him back to take photos of our family.

Thankful for our photographer

I was so happy the flexibility that Joseph had for the entire wedding, running around and making sure he got every shot he could. I was very pleased with the “in the moment” shots. I would hands down recommend to have this man as your photographer! :)

Absolutely amazing!

Joseph photographed my wedding. He was so open to everything I asked for and was so responsive to ideas. We booked him about a year in advance and he kept in touch the entire time. It was wonderful. My son has autism and HATES his picture taken, and Joseph was able to get him to sit and smile in pictures! Everyone was so comfortable with him. I HIGHLY recommend him!

Fantastic Photographer

Joe is very personable and has genuine, positive energy. We had so much fun at our photo shoots. He and his assistant captured our moments perfectly. We couldn't be any happier with our photos and the experience that we had with Joe.

Fantastic Wedding Photographer

Joe, of Yetman Photography, and second shooter, Stephen, were incredible to work with. Very down to earth, professional, and creative. Together, they made everything seemless and truly captured our love story in the most beautiful way. We received so many compliments from our guests. We highly recommend Yetman Photography. They go above and beyond and do not disappoint.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
