Jewish and Proud.
Lover of fruit,
cardio & warm fuzzy socks

I like to say I have two passions in life






 For me, the two of them go hand in hand.

Photography is the best way I can serve people. The best way I know how to love the amazing humans that enter into my world and bring me so much joy and happiness. The best way I know how to live a life full of purpose, creativity and love. 

I promise we will create photos together that you can't wait to share with your great, great grandchildren. But I also promise a photography experience that makes you feel so confident and so natural in front of the camera that it will give you the room to live every moment, be with every person and feel all the feels on your wedding day. 


Hey New Friend! I'm Yael and I am SO glad you are here!

 "Yael Pachino is an absolute magician!" 

Yael Pachino is an absolute magician! She is the sweetest, kindest, most organized, has incredible attention to detail, and produces the most AMAZING photos you will ever see. Yael and I met at a networking event years ago and conveniently, I was looking for a photographer for our engagement photos. During our engagement shoot, Yael made us feel relaxed and beautiful and put us in the perfect spots to achieve really awesome photos. From that shoot, we immediately locked her in for our wedding. Throughout the planning process, I was in constant communication with Yael asking her questions, creating a rain-day plan, and exploring photoshoot sites. She regularly sent us checklists, reminders, and notes to help us keep on track."

 "Her work is incredible and she is so dedicated to her couples!"

Yael is a true gem. I'd give her a thousand stars if I could! Her work is incredible and she is so dedicated to her couples -- she chatted with me so many times before the wedding (Yael was practically my wedding planner!). For both our engagement session and wedding, we had sneak peeks less than 24 hours later. We received SO many compliments about Yael--her enthusiasm and energy, her patience, her ability to pose people without being too pushy--not to mention the gorgeous photos. We can't wait to see the rest of the wedding gallery & work on our album together.

 " Forever be grateful for her kindness, professionalism, energy and patience"

If you are searching for a wedding photographer, stop and book Yael immediately. We will forever be grateful for her kindness, professionalism, energy, and patience. She is truly a one of a kind human and photographer. Our guests left our wedding knowing Yael by name because they were blown away by her energy and incredible personality. When we shared the STUNNING pictures within 24 hours after our wedding, everyone began asking us for her contact information. We cannot wait to see the final gallery and Yael at future weddings and family events. Yael’s associate, Talya was also outstanding, professional, and kind. Yael brought the magic to our wedding and having her presence enhanced the day and exceeded all expectations. We love you, Yael!!!

 " She has a magical ability to be everywhere at once!"

Yael and her associate Talya blew us away with their gorgeous photography of our 2021 wedding! From the day 1 consult call to check-ins leading up to the event, Yael exuded warmth, excitement, professionalism, and expertise! She has a magical ability to be everyone at once, capture all the perfect little moments, and orchestrate the perfect shot. We couldn't recommend her more highly

 " On the wedding day she was more than just a photographer..."

I first met Yael at one of my best friend's weddings as a bridesmaid. Having been in several weddings previously to meeting her - she immediately stood out. Her enthusiasm, ability to keep everyone smiling, yet relaxed was refreshing as a bridesmaid. Fast forward several years and I am now engaged and need a wedding photographer - I immediately knew who to book. Yael has never disappointed me. After meeting her I felt she was a friend to both myself and my husband. She always was upbeat and laid back which allowed us to get some amazing engagement photos. On the wedding day she was more than just a photographer - she fluffed my dress, she dried my flowers every time they were put back into a vase - and she danced WHILE taking stunning pictures at my wedding.et...
