About Jessica Yurko Photography

Jessica Yurko Photography

Photographer

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

As a shy human myself, it’s important to me to foster a safe space for ALL of your humanity. Whether you struggle to feel comfy in front of a camera or just aren’t sure how to talk to a stranger, I’ll do my best to help lighten the mood and maybe, just maybe, we’ll both make a new friend.

    Jessica was our wedding photographer, and she was amazing! She made us feel comfortable, kept us laughing, and captured beautiful, candid moments. Her warm and funny personality made the day even more special. We highly recommend Jessica and look forward to having her photograph more of our life’s moments in the future!

    Jessica Yurko Photography was an absolute delight to work with from start to finish. Jessica was so friendly, approachable and clear in her communication, which was incredibly reassuring throughout the entire wedding planning process. Her photography skills are truly above and beyond, exceeding our expectations at every turn. Jessica is not only a gifted photographer, but a wonderful person who has become a dear friend. She has an incredible eye for capturing the beauty and art in every moment, and her warm, sweet demeanor made her an absolute joy to have by our side on our special day. We cannot recommend Jessica Yurko Photography highly enough!

    Hi Alli, Not me tearing up on a Tuesday thanks to your beautiful review. It means so much that you took the time to leave a review about working with me.

Our time together is definitely something I'll remember fondly. I can't wait to watch all the new adventures you'll have in the years to come. With love, your new bestie Jess

    Hiring Jess was one of the easiest and best decisions my wife and I made for our engagement photos and wedding. She is such a kind person and made both of us, who generally are camera shy, feel right at home in front of her camera. She is fantastic in her communication and walked us through all the potential shots we'd want for our special day. During the wedding, she was the drill instructor our large families needed which let us have plenty of time to enjoy our cocktail hour afterwards. She is an extremely talented photographer and we couldn't recommend her more.

Your kind words not only about myself personally, but also my artwork, fills my heart with such immense happiness. I'm beyond excited to see the next chapters in your and Michelle's love story. With love, your new bestie Jess

    Jessica was truly amazing to work with for our wedding day. From the very first time we spoke, Jessica had a sweet and attentive communication style that immediately put us at ease. I remember after our first virtual meeting her even sending a little thank you gift for meeting with her. And she was so kind, she asked so many questions and seemed genuinely interested about us as a couple and about our dogs! I spoke with some other photographers who seemed to care less about us as people. Which is ultimately why we went with Jessica to begin with, she was just so nice and her pictures were amazing to top it all off. Her passion for her craft was evident in the beautiful, high-quality photos she captured. Also her photo package names were so great (THE STAR WARS - "I LOVE YOU, I KNOW”)! For our engagement shoot we suffered through some of the hottest, awful, sticky, July weather and she was positive the entire time, managed to get amazing shots and deal with our crazy dogs! Before the wedding, Jessica was always easily reachable, and very on the ball. And will always be your biggest cheerleader, anytime I posted anything on Instagram, Jessica would be there celebrating, she is truly a delightful and genuine person! And I think her run through of the wedding day was the first one I got and it was perfect! And she went to the venue a week before the wedding to scope out the absolute perfect spots to take photos! On the day of the wedding, Jessica was able to calmly get every picture perfect, meanwhile making silly dad jokes to help us feel more relaxed in front of the camera. She was amazing at trying to calm down our crying moms, and giving us some moments just to ourselves, listening to literally everything we said, and always making sure we were okay, all while getting amazing shots! And all of our guests loved her! We had people reaching out during and after the wedding to tell us how wonderful Jessica was. Everyone was obsessed with her, both of our mom, my sister, my bridesmaids, even the best man kept talking about how great she was, how amazing everything went, and how nice she was with everything! Meanwhile I am sure it was like trying to her cats to get some of the photos together, especially when we both wanted huge extended family photos, but she was positive and amazing through it all! Jessica went above and beyond on our special day, making sure everything was perfect. I am sure I even missing some of the little touches she added to our wedding. And we are so grateful to have had her as our wedding photographer. She says on her website “YOU CAN CALL ME JESS (SHE/HER). AKA YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND!” And that is honestly how I felt throughout the whole process, literally love her! And I mean the photos really speak for themselves, they are absolutely flawless!

    Hi Amy, Welp, I'm a puddle of emotion now. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed and heartfelt review of our time together. I always seem to be at a loss of words, especially when it comes to encompassing how much reviews mean to me. All I can say is that I'm truly grateful that I got to be on this insanely beautiful journey with you, TJ, the pups, and family. I'm excited to continue being your cheerleader for years to come, hopefully filled with check in puppy walks together. With love, your new bestie Jess
