    I LOVE my wedding photos, particularly the ones of my husband and I. Sandra really has a gift for shooting couples. And her editing choices are lovely. So classy and classic, not overdone like a lot of photographers these days. I feel like years from now I will be able to look back at our wedding photos and they won't seem outdated at all. I'll still be able to look at them and remember what a beautiful day it was. Thank you so much for making our day so memorable.

    Sandra is absolutely fantastic! Her pictures are like masterpieces! She photographed our wedding as well as engagement photos and rehearsal dinner. The photos capture the emotion and bring my husband and I as well as our families back to the day. I cannot describe how grateful we are to have found her. She was the best choice we made for our wedding!

    Thank you SO much Sandra! Dan and I appreciate everything you did for us! We love you and hope to use you for when we grow our family in the future!

    Sandra was amazing!!! I can not tell you how many compliments I have received on the photos! The day of the wedding I didn't even realize she was there snapping away...every picture shows true raw emotion. My husband and I relive our wedding day over and over every time we look at our wedding photos. They are so amazing, I do not even feel like we are looking at pictures of us. I was in a meeting yesterday and somebody asked why I was smiling so big.... Little did they know I was looking at the pics. Sandra is the best ever!!! One of the best decisions I made about my wedding.... Of course besides getting married to ben! Thank you for everything!!!!!!

    Sandra was awesome and the photographs were even better! I loved the attention to the details little things I would have never thought of. You are missing out if you choose another photographer. I can't say it enough she was great.

    Sandra, We cannot thank you enough for making our special day so incredible and we had such a blast working with you. Thank you so much for your amazing artistic visions as you captured our special day with stunning photos, and you gave us beautiful memories to cherish forever.
    We would be honored if you are present to capture all of our life's precious moments in the years to come. You are absolutely amazing as an artist and a person and we were so blessed with finding such a talented photographer such as yourself!
    You love what you do and love working with people, and you made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera! You are one of Florida's treasures and best kept secrets!!! Thanks again for our breathtaking Wedding pictures!!! Jeanine-Marie and Michael

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Thank you Marie and Michael - you are both a joy to work with! Thank you for trusting me 100%, and I appreciate that you let me be a witness to such an intimate event. Marie, you were such a dear! Even with the cold weather you were game for everything - both the wedding and the bridal portrait was a success. I love how you two were so attentive and romantic - it made me love my job even more :) Looking forward to be a part of your future 'modeling careers' :)

    Sandra was spectacular! Very patient, great creative eye and was so easy to work with. She was and still is very accommodating and extremely timely with getting my pictures back to me soon. Would definately and already have recommended her to future brides. Thank you Sandra!

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Carly - Girl, I had a blast at your wedding! The Hawaiian theme put everyone in a good mood, and the fire dancers were just one of many highlights. Splendid! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be part of something warm and vibrant and just full of energy! Please extend my thanks as well to your relatives and friends who have visited my blog and left comments on my post about your wedding and engagement session.

    Sandra was a great choice as our wedding photographer. She gave us exactly what we wanted and more. We asked that she shoot our reception in a natural, documentary-like style and she nailed it. We also wanted some post-production effects that would give the images a retro feel and she nailed that as well. She also convinced us to do a few posed shots which were very reluctant about. In the end, we were quite surprised at how much we liked a couple of the planned photos. Sandra is very professional and a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her as a wedding photographer.

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Hi Valerie! It was so lovely to have been part of your wedding celebration. You're so beautiful inside and out and Tibi is as dashing as can be. Everything was gorgeous because you rocked on designing every detail! From the oranges to the place cards to the old mason jars - I'm glad you liked the vintage style photographs and that I was able to provide them for you as requested. Thank you and enjoy your life together in the NYC!

    Sandra photographed our wedding on the 10th of October 2009. If you need an understanding, creative, caring photographer who can get the job done- Sandra is the ideal person!!! She surpassed our expectations both in creativity and quality. Sandra is obviously very talented, knowledgeable and takes a very unique approach to her work. Her creative light lapse photography added an entirely new dimension to the night session she did at the rehearsal dinner- Indeed it was absolutely amazing. The detailed pictures of the rings, the build-up to the big day and the day after were all up to par with regards to an exceptionally high level of creativity. Sandra is just one of these rare people with an amazing talent for what she does- she is nothing short of an awesome photographer!!! The quality of pictures were outstanding, she was extremely responsive to our ideas, requests and needs, she maintained a very professional demeanor yet at the same time was very friendly and amicable, she was very flexible and understanding to our crazy schedule and we definitely got great value for the money. I whole heartedly recommend her- she is an amazing photographer!!!- http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=154878&id=599697008&l=2aecfbc612

    Hi Fern and Courtney! You have traveled a lot in your lives and getting married is probably one of the best, if not the greatest, adventure that both of you will ever take. Thank you for letting me be part of that journey, and for giving me the freedom to shoot and style you guys according to my vision. The ocean view in South Carolina was breathtaking and everyone had so much fun during the rehearsal and the reception! I just love that shot of you by the rocks - I still get compliments to date! The wedding is only as beautiful and as fun as the bride and groom will allow themselves to be, and I'm happy that you are very open with me and allowed me to see a side of you guys that is such a treasure to share with friends and family :)

    Choosing Sandra as my photographer is the best decision I have ever made. She was so helpful during my wedding planning process and was in particular amazing on the wedding day. Both myself and my wife feel great behind the camera,and our pictures look fantastic as well. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any of my friends.

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Hi Loy! You are probably just about one of the coolest guys I've ever met! You and Cindy make an adorable couple. I loved just about everything you DIYourselvers designed for your wedding, from the floral arrangements to the calligraphic place cards to the cup cakes! When you visit Florida next time, let's grab dim sum together. My treat! I know a great place and I know you and Cindy will love it too! :)

    I could not have been happier with my choice of photographer. Sandra was easy to get in touch with during my planning process and was amazing on the day of the wedding. She made both myself and my husband feel great behind the camera.

    We were so amazed to see the great pictures that she took for us. When we shared with our family and friends, everybody was impressed at the photos and we kept on getting the question of who was the photographer. I would recommend her to everybody.

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Hi Jia! Hope you and Don had a great trip to China for your honeymoon! I haven't been to China, except for Hong Kong... Wait that is part of China so I guess I have been ;P I'm just being silly. I am so happy that your family loved your wedding photos. Thanks for letting me be part of your special day!

    We initially chose Sandra Yu for a casual pre-wedding shoot. I was envisioning a series of pictures by the beach but I was dreading the sun and the heat!! Sandra counseled us to the best time (dusk) and spot to go (hidden nook off Clearwater beach that she knew). It was wonderful!! Because the photography was so natural and we were so relaxed, it felt more like a day at the beach than a day of photography. It didn't seem it but we took a lot of pictures! We were so completely comfortable, Sandra definitely accommodated our requests. Because of this, we cancelled our wedding photographer and booked her for our wedding too and she accepted. The wedding shoot was similarly comfortable as well. I could go on and on about her.

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Hi Ayne - You are such a doll! I didn't even know about this review until much later so please pardon my late response. Can you believe that we saw a nest of ducklings by the beach? It was equally amazing to capture the beautiful Clearwater sunset for your wedding photos. Thank you for accommodating all the photographs I wanted to take. I was so glad that you called me to take your maternity and newborn photos too. Your son is so adorable! Give him a kiss from Sandra :)

    AMAZING! Sandra captured so many beautiful and romantic images for our wedding. They were unintrusive and creative throughout the wedding. My husband and I are thrilled with her work and look forward to working with her again soon! Every single picture that she took was like artwork! She is really talented for taking interesting photos and capturing the passion and emotion in a photo unlike any other photographer. We met with several photographers - so we did our research! You spend enough time with your photographer on the day of your wedding - trust me, you want great photos and also be able to enjoy your day! We would recommend her to anyone!

    Sandra Yu Photography's reply:

    Hi Nicole - I had a wonderful time at your wedding! The wedding was intimate and romantic. I was truly blessed to have been part of it. It was so refreshing to meet a laid-back bride. I thank you for trusting me to see your day through my eyes and through my art. Hope you had a great Alaskan honeymoon!

    Sandra is an amazing photographer. Her personality just clicked with my husband and mine. She no longer lives here locally so that can make somethings more difficult but she works with you to get things done and does them well and is alot of fun. We plan on using her again in the future!
