Dempag Photography & Entertainnment

friends and relatives, the comments told us that they were the most beautiful wedding photos they had ever seen, while others asked if this was a photo shoot for Vogue Magazine. Everyone was impressed. Yale was very easy to work with, kind and open to ideas. He helped make our wedding special and the photos of our special day will be artistic treasures to remember always.

d great with our DJ and church staff. He kept things fun and light while still doing great at directing everyone to get great shots and help capture us at our best. The way he communicated to us and operated showed clearly he knows what he is doing and is an amazing professional and artist

s own artistic touch, and we couldn't be happier with the results. With Yale we got so many amazing pictures that are just as perfect as our wedding day! It truly can not be overstated how much we loved working with Yale and the results of his skills. You will not be disappointed!

ting you at ease in front of the camera is a hard set of skills to find! We were beyond happy with our photos and so thankful that we had Yale to capture our special day.

all honesty I can't find just one. Yale was able to get my husband and I both out of our shells and the pictures are PERFECT!! Not only did we use Dempag for our photos, but we also had him for our engagement shoot, videography, ceremony sound, DJ, and Photo Booth. Everything he did, just turned out so great! He makes everything so fun but also takes his work seriously which provides some of the best outcomes I've seen! I recommend him to everyone who asks, along with sharing any and all work of his I can!

pher, his love for what he does shines though his work and the way he works with people. I have a split family, divorced parents and family who arent on great terms, and made it a point to get to know the "isms" to make sure things flowed smoothly! We also had the Dempag team DJ our reception and it was a huge hit, with multiple age groups to appeal to, the dance floor always had someone on it. It was a blast seeing my great aunts on the dance floor having a blast!! I have suggested Yale to all of my engaged friends, if you are in need of man who can do it all Yale is the one for you. I couldn't begin to thank him for the role he played in making my wedding the best day.

ographer!

Such an enjoyable and friendly guy! Yale also took the time to listen to us and really figure out what we were hoping for for our photos. He continued to stay in contact with us right up until the date of our wedding. When our wedding day came around, he was so coordinated and kept everything on track. He even took it upon himself to grab the mic through the evening and liven up the party! We had SO much fun working with Yale! He is truly a master of his craft! We would HIGHLY recommend him!

the obscure music selection and he did wonderfully managing tunes he didn't recognize. His creativity and personal touch to the experience made our big day one to remember forever. We are so pleased with Dempag and would highly recommend their services for any important event.

g day coverage. We also used them as our DJ and the dance floor was full all night. Everyone had a blast.

es outdoors, and he was able to avoid people (or ask them to wait) so he could snap the photo. The outcome was fantastic - we love our pictures. Would definitely recommend him as an affordable but GREAT photographer!

were even more incredible! Our wedding day went by so fast, and I am so happy that we can go back and watch the video from that day! It brings us both back to that day like it was yesterday and all the amazing feelings rush right back. Do not do your day without the video! The photo booth was a huge hit, and we laugh every time we look at the pictures. Everyone raved about how fun the night was, and how great the music and entertainment was! The dance floor was busy all night long! Yale went above and beyond our expectations and made our night perfect! You definitely need to hire him for your wedding!

lso bought a package for the ceremony music. Dempag is one of the most reasonable vendors, but with top-notch services! Our pictures turned out amazing! Thank you, Yale and his team!!!

how it! He truly captures you in your natural element and helps keep the party alive! I was so nervous that we would fall behind schedule because we had an early ceremony but Yale was so efficient and made sure he captured everything we asked. We had a party bus after our ceremony to our reception that he hopped on too and I'm so glad he did because he got such fun pictures from it! We had so many compliments on his entertainment services too - at our reception we did something he calls a photo dash where the bride and groom have one song to run to every table and get a picture with everyone and literally so many people told us how cool that was - plus we got a picture with everyone! Everyone also had so much fun in the photo booth! Yale was a blast to work with and we are so happy we chose him!

get, despite the heat and outdoor setting. Yale's editing turn-around was very quick, and the photos looked better than we could imagine! The DJ DEMPAG provided was amazing- he read the room perfectly, and kept the party going. Hiring DEMPAG was probably one of the best things we did while preparing for the wedding. We are so very happy with their service, communication, and their hard work.

a photographer, truly an amazing experience!

nded up here in Minnesota. Yale was quick with communication and always responded even if he was out of the country. Unfortunately Yale had an emergency come up and was unable to photograph on the day of our wedding and sent his alternate Adam. Adam stepped in without missing a beat and did a fantastic job. He loved Union Depot where we did a majority of our photos and really showcased us and the space very well. We got our photos back in 3 weeks and have heard nothing but compliments.

us and let us know right away he had a backup plan in place. The person he had come and take photos was incredibly talented and did an amazing job we both enjoyed how the photos turned out in the end. My wife and I would highly recommend considering Dempag for all your wedding photography needs.

concise. Great quality for a reasonable cost! I highly recommend them!!!

her name, but the photographer assistant also was very kind and did a great job as well. Yale was a great MC and knew how to make our guests laugh and get their attention. The DJ did a great job as well. You can’t beat the quality and price of their services and would highly recommend.

to me for the pictures was spot-on. The DJ he provided was excellent and the videographer was awesome. Using a drone, he captured the essence of our entire event! If I could live long enough to renew my vows, I would certainly request Dempag Photography & Entertainment

ooking at them. We also used Dempag for our DJ and the dance floor was always busy! He knew how to read the audience, which was very important to me. The photo booth was also a HUGE hit with our guests! I HIGHLY recommend Dempag for your Wedding! Look NO further!

ard-winning and affordable!! Our photos turned out AMAZING! By the end of your wedding night, he'll feel like family! Thank you for everything!

more relaxed and the pictures turned out amazing each time (and my husband does not like to smile)! When he has an idea, roll with it because it's going to be cool and you will have an amazing picture to brag with to your friends and keep the special memories from that day. He was so understanding when we decided to postpone the full wedding and just did a small backyard wedding the first time and worked with us to make sure it was easy, and as a bride who had to plan MULTIPLE variations of BOTH weddings, Yale was the ONLY one who made it easier for me. Quick to reply, willing to be flexible, working with the times, on top of the easy going personality it made a world of difference. For the second wedding Yale was also our DJ on top of photographer, and still setting up a photo booth (highly recommend, these pictures are so funny and sweet). At dinner, he really got the guests into it and was playing games with the group, he is a natural people person and EVERYONE loved him, and my family is not easy to please. I cannot express what a positive impact he had on all of our days from start to finish, and should we ever renew our vows, we know who we are calling. If you want great pictures you will love forever, call Yale. If you want someone to to make sure the wedding flows well between ceremony dinner and dancing, call Yale. If you want someone to be a great DJ who really reads the needs of the crowd, call Yale. You will be so happy that you did! I cannot thank him enough for all that he did and making our special days the best memories of our lives.

He helped create a timeline that worked out amazing, the communication was phenomenal as we got all the photos we wanted and asked for. He’s great with staying on schedule and you can tell he’s passionate about capturing your perfect day. I would highly recommend, and if we need more photos taken we know where to go!

team. Our wedding day would not have been what it was without him!

wet streets in the middle of Minneapolis to take pictures but was also stopping traffic and created the most magical sparkler moment! If you want a photographer who will take risks, thinks outside the box, and is so incredibly fun for your wedding you want Yale!!!!

ll around.

tion engagement, less than 2 months before our wedding! My family found Dempag last-minute on and Yale understood our situation and scheduled an engagement session for us immediately. Our session was wonderful!! We had so much fun and we were so comfortable, I was surprised! We normally don't like being in front of a camera. We got the pictures back quickly and I was overjoyed. They are absolutely beautiful and captured "us" and the love and fun we had had. Then the wedding.....oh my gosh, our day was perfect and Yale captured every perfect moment!! I am so so grateful to have all those beautiful memories captured! My family looked at the photos and they commented that they hadn't even noticed Yale moving around so quickly. My friends have already said they plan to hire Dempag for their weddings :)

ear, and he absolutely blew it out of then water! Literally! By the end of the shoot we were standing right in front of Minnehaha falls feeling cool and every bit of a celebrity as onlookers observed. It was so much fun and both Justin and I knew at that point that we had made the BEST decision for our wedding by choosing Dempag. Fast forward a few months to the wedding and I CANNOT say how thankful we are to have had Yale and his team. We decided to go with the total event package, and it was worth EVERY PENNY. The day absolutely would not have run as smoothly if it hadn’t been for Yale. My father couldn’t even believe how thorough and involved he was throughout the entire day. He took over and ran the ceremony and every part of the reception thereafter. I felt completely comfortable leaving everything up to him which allowed me to truly enjoy our special day. I can’t stress enough how wonderful this whole experience was for us, and I would 100% recommend Dempag to EVERYONE!!! Thank you so much for making a girl’s dream come true.

hetic and timeline we were looking for. Before the event even started, they set expectations and communicated clearly to figure out what we wanted. They showed up early the day of, and were nothing but professional. When the time came for photos, Yale had a plan and executed it quickly, got the shots in the spots he had scouted and suggesting a lot of fun different positions for the bridal team! Never once did he feel unprepared or get caught off guard. He had a super great sense of humor and personality and made the picture taking a fun experience for everyone involved. It's worth the time to check out his photos on instagram because he takes truly wonderful shots. The DJ service was wonderful. The mic quality was great throughout the ceremony - even at a remote site, the music was catered to our taste according to music we shared, and the photo booth had a ton of fun props that sent the photos right to people's phones. Without a doubt a wonderful choice for a photographer and DJ.

zed/picture perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend him

ummer 2020 wedding. Thanks to Covid, our wedding was rescheduled to 2021. When I contacted Yale about rescheduling, he was easy to reach and super accommodating. Fast forward to this year. Yale reached out with paperwork to be sure that we were on the same page and everything would go smoothly for both the ceremony and reception. There was no question that Yale and his team knew what they were doing. The photos came out beautifully. The video is terrific, completely capturing the essence of the day. All of our guests loved the photo booth, plus they were able to receive digital copies of the photos instantly. The DJ read the crowd perfectly and kept the night going without pressuring guests to dance. We have a young son who still naps. Yale had absolutely no problem doing photos around his nap. I had planned on dancing with him to a slow song. Literally minutes before our dance, I asked Yale to change it to “If you’re happy and you know it”. Without hesitation, he found the song and switched it out. Our son was thrilled and the guests loved it. Booking Dempag Photography and Entertainment for our wedding was honestly one of the best decisions we made!

give us the photo in less than 2 weeks, Also he is so helpful in everything you need! He is so funny and do his job with passion! Our day was really memorable! So if you want have your special day memorable, don’t wait or waist time looking around! He is the guy you wanna work with and you will never regret! Thank you Yale from the bottom of our hearts! ♥️

htly. His quick responses, customer service, willingness to please his couples, and go beyond what someone could ever dream of doesn’t even touch the surface of his quality. My husband and I used Yale and his team for absolutely everything. Engagement photos, wedding photography, photo booth, party bus transportation, DJ and entertainment, and videography. It would be impossible to pick a favorite service he provided because they were all outstanding. My wedding was picked back 3 times due to COVID, and when picking mew dates, the only thing I cared about was making sure HE was available for whatever date we decided to choose. The memories from the entertainment will forever be lifetime memories, and the photos and video we received have put me in tears of disbelief when I look at them. Thank you, Yale… for everything. Yourself and the Dempag team will forever hold a huge spot in my heart. There’s no one else I’d recommend for wedding services! You won’t be let down!

looking for a photographer, we knew we wanted a videographer and a DJ as well. Once I found out that Dempag provided all of those services, it was a done deal. To our surprise, we received our photos and videos in less than a month after the wedding, and they are perfect! We are so grateful to have an amazing video and lovely pictures to reminisce on our special day! Thank you Yale and your team for capturing our special moments which will surely last a lifetime!

king for a videographer or photographer for their event!

eddings, he is readily available and great with communication. We did our engagement photos in below zero temps and they still turned out beautiful! Two weeks before our wedding, our venue changed from St. Paul to WI due to Covid restrictions. Yale was more than willing to travel without hesitation, which was a huge stress relief. We got so many unexpected and beautiful shots and he truly cares about capturing as much as he can. We had a large wedding party and families and was able to take control and pay attention to all the little details. We got all our photos just a couple weeks after the wedding! They all turned out AMAZING so we basically just have to frame them all! His party bus was a huge hit! It fits so many people, has coolers, and was also very convenient for us since our church was about 30 min from the venue. It was just ne more thing we didn't have to worry about. His DJ and emcee skills kept the dance floor packed all night long which is exactly what we wanted! We told him we wanted a party atmosphere and he did the rest! He also got some great photos of everyone dancing. Everyone LOVED LOVED LOVED the photo booth! We almost didn't do it and decided last minute to add it. We are so glad we did! All the props are electronic, you can text the photos to yourself, and we got copies of all of them in the with our other photos. People were in there all night long. Our friends and family still talk about how much fun it all was! He is SO reasonably priced for everything he offers and the quality he delivers it in! We are so happy we booked Dempag and I'm sure we'll see him at a future friend or family's wedding with the amount of people who have asked for his information because of the atmosphere he created! We can't thank Yale and the Dempag staff enough for helping making our wedding day as perfect as it was!

to make the day the most special day and captures the moments that you want to proudly hang in your living room. He flew all the way to Chicago to do our engagement photos, he changed his entire schedule when our wedding day was moved up 24 hrs in a 48 hr notice (thanks COVID), and he was able to not only be the photographer, but the MC and DJ without any assistants. If you want an all around guy who puts your needs and your wedding above all else on top of taking award winning photos we highly recommend him, we promise you won't be disappointed. We would hire him again in a heart beat.

eremony location. We were so impressed with how amazing our photos/video turned out and how creative Yale was!

bly personalities and sense of humor made photos & video fun and easy!! They were super helpful even after the day was over with sending over additional requests I had regarding photos and extra video footage! I will absolutely be using them for all future photography sessions as we start our family together and refer them to anyone I know looking!! Thanks again Yale & Kirk!!

Bride and the Groom, and also the friends and family that surround them. Communication is the base of his business and he takes pleasure being able to take photos not only where you think they would be good, but where he knows they will shine! Thank you Yale not only for your professionalism with the photos, but also the breakfast, the toothbrush from the front desk, and the accomodation to get in Lake Superior to shoot canoe photos with my new Wife Veronica!

ller ceremony with just the two of us. We were looking at scenic places in/near Duluth, MN where we could capture some great shots and knew we needed a phenomenal photographer to capture the day. We stumbled across Yale's page and fell in love with his photos and artistic style - he ended up being everything we could have wanted in a photographer and more! He was extremely prompt with communication and chatted with us prior to the big day to get an idea of what we were looking for and how we wanted the day to go. We ended up traveling the Lake Superior shoreline in his party bus, stopping to take photos in various locations. He was always open to our ideas and even had some crazy ones of his own - including standing on cliffs and braving the frigid Lake Superior water with us to get the perfect shot. His attention to detail coupled with his easygoing personality made for an amazing day that we will always remember with photos we will cherish for a lifetime. While it wasn't what we had originally planned, Yale made our day everything we could have dreamed of and more. If I could book him again for our postponed wedding, I'd do it in a heartbeat!
