Testimonials

  • "Yael is wonderful! I found her through a Facebook group and wasn't sure what to expect, but she far exceeded my expectations. From start to finish, the process was seamless. Yael is professional, prompt, and easygoing. During our newborn/family session, she captured all the right moments while putting everyone at ease—she even managed to keep our young kids engaged and smiling, which is no small feat. We loved our photos. It’s clear she enjoys her craft and invests time in getting to know her clients. I would work with Yael again in a heartbeat!"

  • "Yael is the sweetest, most authentic, and hardworking photographer I have had the pleasure of working with. Her prices are very fair and her packages are better than I've seen elsewhere. She has photographed my family three times now. I especially like the mini-shoots and usually elect for those, because it's difficult to photograph a family with small children for longer than 15 minutes, so it is perfect for us. We follow each other on Instagram and chat frequently. I consider her a friend and I am blessed to have found my "forever" family photographer. Thank you, Yael!!"

Yael made us feel comfortable, heard what we were looking for, delivered way more than we expected, and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Yael for capturing Sahaj’s 1st cake smash and family memories."

  • "Yael photographed my maternity shoot and the results are incredible! Absolutely obsessed with the way all of the pictures came out. She provided comfort and professionalism. She was able to shoot the pictures exactly how I wanted while also enhancing every idea with her own perspective. So grateful for her!"

  • "Highly recommend Moon and Stars Photography!! We used Yael for newborn photos with a sunset background, and the pictures came out amazing! She met us at the beach of our choice and was just a really sweet, kind, and patient person. We got the final edits back from her super quick and can't wait to get them printed. We will definitely be using her again in the future."

  • "Yael Was so amazing for our christmas farm shoot! she was so nice and responsive when i reached out to her. She answered all my questions so quickly and i felt so comfortable leading up to the day! We accidentally went to the wrong tree farm and ended up getting to the correct location a little late. Although I was flustered Yael assured me it was okay and made sure we still had our complete shoot and still got to do all photos we wanted !! She got the photos back to me even earlier than expected and we were able to use them for our first christmas cards with our baby ❤️❤️ THANK YOU SO MUCH"

  • I cannot recommend Yael Morales of Moon and Stars Photography enough! Yael did both my maternity and newborn photoshoots, and she was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. She’s not only incredibly talented with an eye for capturing the most beautiful, natural moments, but she’s also so kind, personable, and patient, which made the whole experience so enjoyable and stress-free. She was flexible with scheduling (which is no small thing when working around a newborn’s unpredictable timing!) and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Her pricing is also extremely reasonable, especially considering the high quality of her work. Every single photo she delivered was breathtaking, and I will cherish them forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who will make you feel at ease, treat your family with warmth, and deliver gorgeous images you’ll treasure for a lifetime, Yael is the one. I’m so grateful I found her and will absolutely be coming back for future milestones!

  • "I was supposed to do a mini cherry blossom shoot in the spring but one of my children was ill so I needed to cancel our session. Yael was so understanding and easy to book a new session with. She accommodated us with a family beach shoot. Before the shoot, she provided a detailed and professional email with suggestions, such as color palates and style ideas. She emphasized in her email to remember to have fun in the shoot and she helped to facilitate that. Yael is so kind and easy to work with. She went out of her physical comfort zone to capture some shots in the water. I even had a wardrobe malfunction that Yael was able to photoshop and fix. I am happy with the photos I chose from my gallery and I can't wait to get them printed and up on my wall!"
