We hired Dustin and Yohance to do all of the photography and videography for our Cooperstown wedding in July 2023. They and their team of experienced professionals captured our day perfectly. The photos they captured of Chris' surprise at seeing his late uncle's last Mini in the drive of the Otesaga are some of our favorite photos from the day.
Our wedding video was also artfully put together, showcasing silliness, happiness, and fun - everything we wanted our wedding to be. We are so happy it was captured so we can watch it again and again.
It was incredibly easy working with this team leading up to the wedding. They were organized and flexible, working with us while we were living in Dubai with a 9 hour time difference. They are an excellent choice for any wedding.
Vendor response 10/29/2024
Thank you, Amanda and Chris, for sharing this beautiful review! We’re honored to have been...
part of your Cooperstown wedding, capturing such heartfelt moments like Chris’s reaction to the special arrival of his late uncle’s car. Your vision of a joyful, fun-filled celebration truly came to life, and we’re thrilled that the video reflects those cherished memories so perfectly.
It was our pleasure to work alongside you, adapting to every detail—even across a nine-hour time difference! Thank you for trusting us with your wedding day; your kind words mean the world to our team. Wishing you both a lifetime filled with joy and happiness!

My husband and I booked Blacktie Brothers as our videographer for our wedding in October 2023, and we could not have been more pleased. Mitchell, myself, and both of our families were SO impressed by their team at our wedding. On the day of our wedding, there were quite a few challenges to making the day go as smoothly as I had hoped, mainly the rain caused us to have to move our ceremony inside. The wedding coordinator associated with the venue did not follow up on a few of the tasks she had agreed to doing, namely being present during the photo session to make sure I was comfortable and hydrated. The entire media team at Blacktie Brothers stepped in and handled it so professionally, even getting me water when I felt faint from all of the commotion. Our day wouldn’t have gone as smoothly as it had without the help Blacktie Brothers gave us.
We opted for the raw footage package, so we received an edited movie of our wedding as well as all the raw footage of our day on a thumb drive. The movie they made is amazing. The song they chose for the ceremony portion of the movie was a special choice— the lyrics reflected some aspects of our story as a couple. It was so thoughtfully crafted and makes me cry whenever I see it!
The team was responsive and professional throughout the entire wedding planning process. Any question or concern we had was met with a genuine, timely response. The movie and the raw footage is now something we can have and share for the rest of our lives, and they so beautifully preserved the memory of our day. I have already recommended them to some friend getting married in upstate NY next year. Blacktie Brothers goes above and beyond, and was hands down one of our best vendors.

Blacktie brothers created an amazing and exciting wedding video for my son and daughter in law. This was a gift from me to them and therefore it had to be perfect. They’ve exceeded everyone’s expectations. They arrived promptly with two videographers and helpers as promised. During the editing process they were in touch with me and addressed any concerns I had. Their pricing is competitive. Blacktie brothers are top notch and I’m happy my son and “daughter” have this treasured memory.

I am so happy we decided to go with Yohance and The Black Tie Brothers for our wedding photography and video. From the beginning, they were very thorough and ensured we got everything we wanted how we wanted it. On the day of the wedding, they were professional and friendly. They somehow made me feel like they were both part of the family and my personal paparazzi at the same time. Our pictures came out wonderful, exactly what I expected, with excellent quality and attention to detail. Definitely worth the price. I'm not sure what I expected from the video, but it completely exceeded my expectations. I don't think I've seen a clearer video in my life, and the music choice was perfect. If you're still searching for a photographer for your perfect day you've found them.

I’m still in tears watching our video over and over again. Our video captured our day so perfectly. Not only did it capture the most special moments but the emotion that you could feel from the video was as if we were back at the day of the wedding. I could not be happier with our video. It was put together perfectly from start to finish. We can’t thank blacktie brothers enough for this special video we will cherish for a lifetime!
