Dreamiest Wedding Photos captured by the sweetest photographer!

Samantha came recommended by a college friend who photographed her wedding. SHE IS A GEM!! Very responsive to email and so friendly and genuine. We loved how she captures pictures like you are watching the moment unfold right in front of you. She made the day so special for my husband and I. She even sent a preview album quickly after our wedding. It is so hard to chose which pictures are our favorites since they are all so beautiful. We are excited to look through the wedding pictures she took for days to come!!

stunning pics, wonderful to work with

It was a joy working with Samantha Jay. Samantha was helpful in planning the day beyond what I’d expect for a photographer. She gave useful input on timeline and bridesmaid dress colors (recommending the adorable mismatch). We actually had Nicole and her husband as the day of photographers. Their photography was every bit as beautiful as what’s on Samantha’s website. Our band even commented that Nicole’s eye was uniquely beautiful, and he’s seen many photographs! Samantha did a gorgeous job editing our photographs. Our friends and family frequently comment how stunning the pictures were. They’re true heirlooms that will help us remember our wedding forever. Could not recommend booking her enough!

Gorgeous Photos of the Best Memories

Samantha's photography is absolutely stunning and she is a joy to work with! We are so grateful our wedding planner directed us to her.

We were instantly drawn to her light but colorful photography style, and our initial phone call really sealed the deal when we realized how sweet, friendly, and supportive Samantha was. We felt like she was genuinely interested in getting to know us (as opposed to other teams that made us feel like just another paycheck). She was consistently responsive and professional throughout our wedding planning process.

During our engagement session and our wedding, Samantha (and her second shooter, Jess at the wedding!) made these two camera-shy people feel comfortable and fairly natural in front of the camera. Though our engagement photo location wound up being used by countless high schoolers for prom photos the same evening, she calmly navigated to other areas in the garden such that they were barely a disruption. Her prompts kept us laughing, and her positivity and energy brightened our day.

Our photos themselves will be treasured for a lifetime. She expertly captured such beautiful memories for us. We're really struggling to decide which photos to display in our house because we love all of them so much. Samantha is just absolutely incredible all-around.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Samantha was a pleasure to work with. We did a wedding at the Maas building a couple years ago in Philadelphia, PA. We do event video... It was a lot of fun and her work was amazing. It even got featured on a respectable wedding blog. Kudos, BTW Samantha! She's a pro with a keen eye! Book her now before someone else does!
