Key Sent on 12/31/2025Yrn designs photography saved my wedding day!
Imagine being told a week before your wedding that your perfect turn key venue could no longer accommodate you. I’m talking no decorations, no fancy dinnerware, no ocean backdrops for memories, and the dread of having to find all of these things and apologize to your guests for last minute changes. I have worked with YRN several times and my shots came out absolutely perfect. NO RETOUCHES. Just perfect! Why would I think this time would be any different. At the last minute we remedied all of the above problems; a complete downgrade, but the problems we had probably was the best thing that could ever happen to us. The wedding day went on and let me tell you… the assurance alone from YRN allowed me to just relax and be with my closest family and friends. It was a dream so much so that I didn’t even think anything was hardly being shot. Of course we took the husband/ wife single photos but it was soooo quick and we were not away from our guests too long. Most times when you have a function, it flies by so very quickly. YRN also accommodated me by shooting at two of the three locations we contracted with. Austin and his team came through! My photos, as well as, a video was sent to my contact in less than 2 days. Wow! On the day of ( I had no clue) there was a QR code with facial recognition that my guests could use to get every photo they were captured in. In spite of a huge crises, the professional shooting was fulfilled, but the kindness of Austin and his team really made my day for that was not a part of the contract. We were sincerely grateful from the bottom of our hearts, and so were our guests. The angles, the stills, the motion photos; Austin and his team really captured the love we have for our closest family, friends, and each other. We will remain faithful for as long as YRN is in business, and we live about two hours away. With all of this being said, the right photography or scenery doesn’t always come with all the bows and whistles, but the right photographer comes with his gear, his eye, and his love for what he was chosen to do. -

Easiest Review Ever!! A Must-Have Photographer!!
Our engagement photo experience with Austin was AMAZING. Within our one hour time frame, we were able to have photos taken with many different backgrounds, as well as indoor and outdoor locations. He was also flexible with us as I wanted to change my clothing halfway through. His warm demeanor made the session effortless. I loved the variety in our photos so we could pick our favorites. Even as someone who is very self conscious, there were many photos that I LOVED so much and highly exceeded my expectations.
As shared above, Austin was incredible for our engagement shoot and the photos were stellar. BUT THE WEDDING PHOTOS?! OMG. I tear up each time I open the gallery. They exceeded our expectations ten fold and I will recommend Austin to anyone looking for a photographer in the DMV. Austin was exceptionally patient and kind on the day of our wedding and captured so many precious moments. He sent the photo gallery within only a few days. I look at Austin's pictures of our day and am in awe of how beautiful they are. He seamlessly captured all the love I felt that day and I will be forever grateful for his artistry. Thank you, Austin!!! (If you're like I was -looking at 10000 photographer sites to try to choose someone-... please look no further. This is the best photographer, at a great price point). -

We are thrilled to share our outstanding experience with Austin and the team at YRN Photography, who expertly captured our wedding on October 31, 2025. From our initial engagement session through to the wedding day, their talent and professionalism were truly remarkable.
Austin's ability to make us feel comfortable allowed for genuine, joyful moments to be perfectly documented. His incredible eye for detail and natural light resulted in a collection of photographs that beautifully tell our love story, preserving every emotion.
The videography team also created a stunning, emotionally resonant film that perfectly encapsulates the essence of our day. It’s a treasured masterpiece we will revisit often.
We wholeheartedly recommend Austin and YRN Photography to anyone looking for unparalleled skill and a genuinely engaging approach to preserve their most precious memories with artistry and care.

Highly recommended such an awesome team!
I had my wedding in November 2025. When I say YRN photography captured all the right moments. They did that plus more. We were so happy with our pictures and videos. And they were so patient with us. We had such a large wedding party. We had pictures even taking outside in the cold and from the looks of how our pictures turned out you couldn’t tell that anyone was shivering through each snapshot lol. Overall, my wedding came together beautifully and YRN photography captured the moments that we will cherish forever. If you have a large wedding party I highly recommend this team. -

Angel Sent on 07/21/2025Our wedding photos are straight 🔥🔥
We hired YRN Designs for our big day, and we’re completely blown away. The photos are STUNNING. So real, emotional, and totally us. Our portraits look like they belong in a magazine (no joke…a magazine art director actually reached out after I posted ONE photo 👀).
The video? Crystal clear. You can hear every word. He even captured my Sorors serenading me with our sweetheart song and the stroll. 🔺
Austin didn’t miss a single moment. We’re so glad we chose him and can’t wait to work with him again for future milestones.
If you’re getting married, BOOK HIM! -

Austin & his team are AMAZING!
I booked Dr. Austin Hill and YRN Photography for my April 25, 2025 wedding and he exceeded our expectations. Not only was he super consultative, prepared and on point, but he was also very kind. His energy and professionalism are top tier and the end product blew us away. It captured our special day beautifully and my wife and I are so grateful. Thank you so much, Austin!!!

Here’s why you should choose YRN
Austin and his team are top tier! Starting with communication, Austin was very responsive, even during the late night hours a bride is up planning. Invoicing and payments were extremely easy. As far as work, TOP TIER! Austin felt like family as he captured our day. His team was more than professional and patient with us. Austin ensured that we stayed on schedule and captured every detail we discussed. The turnaround time was fast! We received a sneak peak of the photos 36 hours after the wedding. The highlight reels were amazing! My husband and I are beyond pleased with YRN services and work. I highly recommend hiring YRN photography -

Summer Engagement Session
My husband and I had an amazing experience with YRN in planning and shooting our engagement photos. It was a very hot summer day and we were able to work quickly through the session because Austin was already familiar with the location and had a plan. His preparation made for a seamless experience. The photos were received very quickly and were stunning! I would happily recommend YRN to any couple looking to create gorgeous memories -

I cannot say enough about Austin and YRN Designs!! The entire team was so attentive, engaged, and kind throughout our entire event. And, their work was incredible - they took all the shots we could have ever wanted and added ones we didn't know we needed! We ended up with so many lovely memories - even a bonus video that chronicled everything from start to finish. It is the perfect keepsake! -

Amazing Professionalism
Austin was at the location early and already had ideas of what we should do. He made myself and family very comfortable. Most importantly, the actual photos came out great! They looked better than we imagined. Finally, Austin gave us our photos very quick! We are extremely happy. -

Above and beyond
As a stressful bride a lot of vendors did not help with ideas , ways to help and ease my stressful planning . YRN not only provides tips for poses, timeline to ensure I get as many photos as I wish he went above and beyond to make this time for me and my now husband life as smooth as possible . The pictures turned out amazing the customer service was exceptional and I just know that we were in the right hands with YRN ! Thank you thank you thank you !!! -
