About Mahal SF

Jake Yulo

Owner & Lead Photographer

We care about the craft. In Filipino terms the word "Mahal" is used to describe love and to indicate something is expensive. A perfect entendre for all that entails luxury weddings here in San Francisco and beyond. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to capture your journey in the best light.

Whether the moment requires cinematic direction or a fly on the wall, we are sure to highlight your authentic experience. Be yourself and we will follow. Blending fashion editorial and documentary styles since 2019.

    Jake is great!!

    Working with Mahal SF has been a genuine pleasure. His communication is clear and professional, which puts couples at ease right away. What really sets him apart is his ability to adapt seamlessly when timelines shift or unexpected moments arise—he keeps everyone relaxed and focused on what matters. His artistic eye captures details others miss, and his calm presence through out the day makes him an absolute joy to collaborate with. He's a true team player who understands how to help a day run smoothly, and his reliability means you can trust him to deliver creative, high-quality work every single time.

    Such a pleasure to work with!

    Jake has such a calm and creative energy on a wedding day! He’s a talented photographer that totally elevates the experience of wedding photography with his blend of documentary and editorial styles. He’s such a pleasure to work with!


SF, Napa, Santa Cruz and the greater Bay Area are home to some of the most incredible venues you can find anywhere. Some of our frequently visited favorites are: Filoli Gardens, Sea Ranch, Nestldown, Saratoga Springs, Casa Real, SF City Hall, and Presidio Officer's Club.
Our typical kit includes a Leica M11 and SL2-S, a mix of primes and zooms, and all necessary lighting and flash!
Short answer, professionally since 2019. Long answer, it's been a lifetime. Jake was given his first camera (a Looney Tunes Polaroid) when he was just 3 years old. He went on to study studio art at Whitman College and Syracuse Florence abroad, honing photographic skills both in studio and on location. Full-time and well experienced, Jake typically shoots 30+ weddings per year. Occasionally, he also shoots for the NBA and WNBA.
