From the moment the wheels touched down in Ft. Lauderdale we were ready for relaxation.  We grabbed our bags from the carousel, picked up our rent-a-car and cruised down the narrow strip of highway that leads to Mile 0.  Patrick and I were visiting Key West, Florida for the first time and we already had […]

2014 was one heck of a year for Samantha Jay Photography!  It was great to have an opportunity and sit down with all of the images I was lucky enough to create this year.  I selected some favorites from Bridal, Groom Portraits, Ceremony, Bridal Party, Bride and Groom Portraits, Details and Reception.  I can’t thank […]

We met up with Dave and Jules in the East Village for this amazing engagement session.  Dave and Jules used to live in East Village and we began their session in the park where they used to spend their weekend mornings.  From there we wandered the city and found a community garden and a really […]

Bill and Jackie are good friends, and I could not be more honored to be capturing this special time in their life.  I first met Bill and Jackie at one of Patrick’s first company happy hours.  They are so obviously meant for each other.  Bill and Jackie are tying the knot at Normandy Farms next […]

We met up with Ellen and Nick at Peace Valley Park for an evening engagement session.  The trees were just beginning to really change their color in these amazing fall bursts of color.  Although they were a bit nervous, Ellen and Nick were total naturals!  So excited for their wedding next fall in Cape May!

Laura and Brandon are getting married next week! Can’t believe that their big day is almost here!  We really enjoyed this sweet engagement session with them at Ridley Creek State Park.  They are two people who are so in love and so calming to be around.  So so excited to capture this gorgeous bride and very handsome […]

Check out this Mini Moment from Naida and Josh’s wedding day!  They were married in the city, but we stopped on our way from the ceremony to the reception at a local park and got some great portraits with these two.  That’s always such a great option for couples who feel that their wedding location […]

These two are getting married tomorrow!  Christina and Jeremy are two people who are absolutely perfect for each other.  Their laughter is infectious and their love for one another is so apparent.  I cannot wait to celebrate with them tomorrow as they tie the knot!

Check out this amazing bridal shoot I had with the gorgeous Jacqueline!  Jacqueline is an amazing actress based in NYC, but she was in town as a member of the cast of Sunset Boulevard that was showing at the Media Theatre.  Jacqueline and I met back at Penn State and when I heard she would be in […]
