Hi, I’m Yael Morales!

I’m a wife, mother, and passionate storyteller behind the lens. My journey into photography began in 2019 with the birth of my daughter, following years of fertility challenges. Capturing those first precious moments of her life sparked a deep love for preserving memories.

After the passing of my beloved grandmother in 2023, photography became even more meaningful—it became a way to heal, to honor, and to celebrate the beauty of life’s journey.

Moon & Stars Photography is a Long Island–based photography company specializing in motherhood, maternity, family, milestones, branding, and events. We are dedicated to bringing your vision to life while capturing timeless moments filled with beauty, connection, and hope.

Let’s create something beautiful together—memories that will last a lifetime.

"patient and kind"

Yael was professional, punctual, and made my toddler feel very comfortable around her all while showing her how to pose. You can tell how much passion she puts into the photos and how proud she is of her work. I recommend her to anyone looking for a professional photographer who will give you only the best
