Timeless, Organized, and Truly Exceptional

We worked with YTK Photography and owner Katherine, and truly, she was one of the highlights of our entire wedding day. Our families talked for days afterward about how amazing she is. We are so incredibly thankful that she was the one to capture such an important day in our lives.

Katherine and the team assisting her were kind, professional, and exceptionally talented. Wedding photos can easily feel overwhelming with the number of combinations and people you are trying to coordinate, but Katherine kept everything organized and seamless. She ensured we got all the shots we wanted based on our prep call and her incredibly thorough shot list.

One of the most special elements of the day was an idea I had for a portrait station instead of a traditional photo booth. Katherine was immediately on board, even though we had to work through the logistics together. She and her team executed a stunning black and white portrait station that captured timeless, professional images of our guests. It was an absolute hit. Some guests even said they planned to use their portraits on their own wedding stationery.

We have only received our preview so far, and we are already blown away. I find myself looking at the images and thinking about how these are the photographs we will share with our family for generations. They truly feel like heirloom pieces.
If you are considering YTK Photography for your wedding day, do it. You will be so glad you did.

Beyond Worth It

Katerine was amazing before, day of, and after the wedding. She was patient with us as we discovered our vision, helped us understand timing and schedules. She was quick to respond, and easy to communicate with. Day of she was one it, a step ahead, and even when it decided to downpour on us, she was with us every step and figuring out what to do to fix any issues. Her team was amazing, gave insight to help us get great shots, and helped us get the photos of what we wanted. She even drove us quickly down to the water (at Lake George which was taking a bit of a moment logistically before) to sneak in some gold hour photos that ended up being some of our favorite photos. Katherine and her team were kind, stood up too the challenges the day tossed at us, and made us feel amazing. After, she took time to hear us about editing (which we had very little notes, she felt the vibes perfect), was able to communicate with us, and gave us some sneak peaks that we absolutely adored. If you are unsure about who to have do you photos, I'll make it easy for you, pick YTK.

Can't thank YTK enough

I cannot speak highly enough about Katherine and the YTK works team. From the jump she was extremely organized, thorough and detail-oriented. She made wedding planning a breeze to make sure we captured every shot on our wedding day. My husband and I become nervous in front of the camera, and Katherine made us feel SO comfortable. For me, she hyped me up all day and made me feel so beautiful, which absolutely showed in our photos! I couldn't recommend YTK enough and our photos are absolutely stunning. Thank you, YTK, for being such a highlight of our day!

Extremely happy bride!

Our experience with YTK, and Katherine exceeded our expectations by far. She was extremely helpful even in the months leading up to the wedding by scheduling stress-free zoom calls and helping with a timeline. She was so efficient, and on top of things the day of I honestly couldn’t be more thankful for her and her team. Our wedding day was captured so beautifully and we are so grateful for that!

10/10 Recommend!!!

Working with Katherine and her team at YTK Works was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day! Beyond being amazingly talented at her craft, Katherine was the best to work with and went above and beyond being our photographer. She was so communicative throughout the entire experience, and on the wedding day was such a calming presence to have around. She even attended our Welcome Party the night before to take photos for us then as well. Her team also did our videography services and everything came back amazing! We seriously loved her and couldn't have imagined our weekend without her. We couldn't recommend her enough!!!

Amazing wedding photographers

We had Danielle as our main shooter both for our engagement photos and our wedding at The Sablewood on 11.11.23, and Danielle was amazing! She made me and my husband feel so at ease in front of the camera, constantly giving us positive feedback and encouraging us the entire time. Danielle captured the most amazing golden hour photos and it’s a struggle to choose which will be in our album! Prior to the wedding, YTK are responsive to any questions you might have and listen to your vision of the day. They worked with us to create a detailed wedding photo timeline for us on the day of the wedding and actually stuck to it, even finishing a bit early so we could relax a bit before the ceremony. During family photos, which I heard could be chaotic, YTK had our shot list pulled up to make sure that every combination of family photos we discussed were taken. They even organized individuals we wanted pictures with at cocktail hour so that we could quickly get those done. When we got the link to our gallery, all the pictures were organized into categories such as Details, Getting Ready, First Look, Ceremony etc. which was completely unexpected and sooo nice when looking for photos to put in our album. Additionally, we had our photo booth through them as well, and Katherine created a eucalyptus design to make our photo booth prints unique for our wedding! Plus, they came with a bunch of props (including a bunch of Harry Potter ones) that everyone loved haha

My favorite vendor from my wedding day!

Booking with Katherine and YTK Works was the best decision I could have made. Throughout the entire process she was communicative and enthusiastic. I loved how early we started talking about the days schedule, shot list, etc. I’ve had friends with other photographers not even receive their timeline until week of wedding- (I can’t even imagine!) but Katherine and her team reached out several months in advance to set up a preliminary timeline. She also is super skilled and efficient and did not waste any time while getting the photos so we could attend our cocktail hour. I received my previews (which included about 400 photos covering each part of the day, not just a handful of teasers) within 3 weeks and the photos are absolutely beautiful. People have told me they’ve never seen such stunning photographs of any wedding, ever! Beyond the photos she was a lovely person and super helpful during my wedding day.

Deserving of 6/5 stars

YTK is the greatest, and not only captured my our day but genuinely made it better. Helping with vails and bowties and making us laugh when things got stressful. This was all before we saw the stunning photos. Could not recommend them enough!!!

Best wedding decision we made!

Hiring Katherine to photograph our wedding was one of our earliest decisions and quite possibly one of our best decisions. Once I saw her work, I knew I wanted her to photograph our wedding. She is so incredibly talented at capturing light and more importantly, your most important moments. As if that weren't enough, she is one of the kindest people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Every conversation I had with her put my mind at ease and I knew I could fully trust her and her team to make our day so special and seamless. She worked so professionally with all our other vendors and helped us map out our timeline and navigate a rainy wedding, making sure seized the moments we had to get pictures outside. Since our wedding, both my husband and I have done headshots with Katherine. I have done a boudoir shoot with her, and I even gifted my sister's family a mini holiday shoot with her. I can confidently say we have found the photographer we will use to capture all our big moments. I simply cannot recommend her enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Whenever a couple tells me they are working with Katherine, I already know they have good taste. I had the pleasure to work with Katherine and the YTK team at one of my favorite weddings of 2017. Not only are they kind and easy to work with, the pictures for this wedding came out amazing. She was able to turn a rainy morning into a beautiful backdrop for some seriously stunning shots. Katherine is a true professional, end of story!
