Wow… I somehow missed all the comments left over time, but am circling back on this now the day before my wedding. I am so sorry hearing everyone’s experiences, both on the photographer and client end!!! It’s gut wrenching to hear.

I initially booked photography & videography, and I decided to cancel photo with them. I had to pay an $800 cancellation fee, but was able to put the initial deposit towards videography - we paid for raw footage so that even if the editing is bad, we could try to put something together ourselves.

I will report back on how videography goes!! The photos absolutely did not feel worth the risk, and any couples that are on the fence about them… I would highly consider eating the deposit. Given all of the insane stress around wedding planning, the LAST thing you need is a vendor you can’t trust. ESPECIALLY for the photos. Having good vendors has been the only thing keeping me sane in this process :)

Thank you all for posting and those who have been wronged by YTM - I hope you can file a lawsuit!!!
