Hi I'm Sarah and I was born & raised here in fabulous Las Vegas (one of the few #vegasborn). My family has always been in the wedding industry so it was natural for me to develop a passion for photographing weddings. I am a mom to 4+a bonus kid and life is anything but boring! I also have a husky & shepherd who are my editing buddies and make me a proud dog mom; even if their hair has taken over my truck! My favorite vice is Starbucks so let's go grab a coffee and chat!

Sarah is by far the only thing about my wedding that I didn’t feel I had to worry about. She’s always on time, awesome personality, she’s extremely talented and great with big groups of people. We knew we had a gem in Sarah when we had her do our engagement photos but god! So grateful we found her to be out photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. If you want someone who can take direction with ease, pursue the vision and help you achieve the photos you want. Someone who actually cares and gives you awesome results Sarah is your girl!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Let me preface this by saying my husband and I have been together a total of 10ish years (married for 5) and I can probably count on my fingers how many photos we have together. Why? Because we are probably the WORST at photos. No matter how hard we’ve tried in the past the only photos we ended up likings are candid photos that someone snapped or by the grace of the universe we got lucky.
So when it came to do our vow renewal ceremony I was a bit panicked on how we would do for our photos. Especially since we were coming in from another state.
Sarah was a dream from the beginning! I gave her a fair warning in advance that we were so bad at taking photos and she reassured me during the whole process that she would get us the best photos and SHE DID. She made the whole experience fun and provided us with directions so that the photos were taken organically and we never felt that awkwardly “pose and smile” feeling during our time with her. The whole day was just laughter and we had a blast with her and our friends who joined us for the renewal.
I cannot recommend Sarah enough and if we could we would have her take all of our special event photos! Even my friends who joined us wished they had Sarah as their photographer for their day. If I talk my husband into another renewal in 5 more years and I’ll know exactly who to reach out to for photos. Thank you Sarah!!!

Sarah is an absolute must!
She fit right in with my family and even danced with us.
She made us feel so comfortable when posing, and really made sure she got those candid photos.
When my parents saw the sneak peeks they couldn’t help but cry.
We loved having you Sarah!

Sarah Jay is absolutely amazing! I wanted a photographer who gave a ton of direction and could corral a group or crowd; and Sarah exceeded my expectations. The number of times wedding guests came up to me and told me “wow your photographer is amazing” were too many to count. She was organized, fun, and got extraordinary photos back to us incredibly quickly. Other than my husband, she was the best wedding decision I made 😊

Hi Yates!
Thank you for your feedback. Even in the rain, your wedding was a stunner! I ...
truly felt like you trusted my creative direction and allowed me the opportunity to prove to you that your day was the one all little girls dream of. I think my favorite parts of your wedding was the signing of the ketubah (a first for me) and your light up sneakers that you rocked during the reception. Your guests were also very lighthearted which made my job easy. I'm so happy you love your photos.
Best wishes my friend!

There were no words when you walked up to the Neon Museum entrance in a lig...
ht pink tule dress for your ceremony. You truly are one of those women who are so kind and you were a vision! I know sometimes downtown can be a little sketch to out of towners but I'm so happy you loved the locations we shot at and I know your husband had a literal blast with the champagne pop! Don't worry, my cleaning off the sticky spots of my camera was totally worth that shot!!!
Best wishes my friend and cheers to love!

Sarah is a true artist! Our pictures are beautiful. She is amazing at what she does, truly. She had so many great ideas and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. From posed photos to candids, which are my favorite, she was great at it all. I knew she was gonna be great from our first email. She's so helpful, listens to what you want and don't want, has an eye for detail. ALL OF IT! What's even better, she sent us a gallery of sneak peeks the very next day already edited! Makes me so excited to see the rest of what she captured!!
Our friends and family loved her too!! Means a lot to have someone be so outgoing, helpful, and talented when it comes to such a huge part of your big day!!!
If you're looking for a Vegas photographer, Sarahs your girl!!!!!

We had a backyard/indoor home wedding and Sarah made this even more unforgettable us. I was worried that I would need to direct her and guide her but she came in with so much confidence and knowing what to do and this is something I value. Not only was she on top of everything but she made me feel at ease. I was a hot mess and didn't know what to even prepare for or how I could help her. She picked out beautiful spots to capture my wedding outfit details, she captured so many laughs and did a phenomenal job capturing every moment that I know my husband and I will cherish. Sarah was also very professional and my family loved her vibe too!

Hi Ana!
My friend, you will always be one of the sweetest brides I have ever had the plea...
sure to work with. Even though you had a little of the expected bridal jitters, I appreciated you allowing me to not only document them but help you through them. You are definitely one of those brides that will feel more like family to me. Oh and your caterer provided the best wedding meal I've ever had (so excellent choice)!!! Good food and love mixed with a kick ass Mexican dance off will always be my memories of your day.
Best wishes my friend and cheers!

Loved working with Sarah Jay! She really captured our wedding day perfectly, and our engagement photos are a DREAM. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and I have already referred her to multiple friends and family. Sarah is very kind and got along with all of our wedding guests and was very patient with our crazy wedding party! I would 100% book with her again!

Sarah is a true professional that captured our wedding exactly the way we envisioned. She really put me and my husband at ease in front of the camera. Her attention to detail is incredible and she really listened to what was important to us. She made planning a breeze and I knew we were in great hands. All of my guests are gushing about how wonderful she was to work with and we couldn’t be more pleased with our photos.

Sarah is amazing! She will make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera & she made the day feel so much less stressful! I can’t wait to see how the rest of the pictures turn out as our sneak peaks were amazing. She is professional and fun loving at the same time. I can’t thank her enough for what she did at the wedding. I’ll definitely use her in the future.

Sarah was the BEST photographer! She was so communicative, friendly, and down to earth. She really listened to all of our wants and made them happen. She's great at posing you, so don't worry if you don't feel naturally photogenic - she will make you look amazing in every shot! We now have a beautiful engagement shoot and unbelievable pictures of our wedding. Sarah really captured our memories, and I can't recommend her highly enough.

Sarah really is the best! We eloped in Vegas and I was open to ideas on where to shoot. I threw out the red rocks and she had the perfect place to shoot. Our pictures turned our beautiful. I love that she sent EDITED sneak peek photos the next day. I can not say enough good things about her and her photography skills! She's the way to go if you're getting married in Vegas!

Sarah was incredible to work with! We had a fun bridal session on the strip, and she knew the BEST locations. This was so helpful, since we aren't from Las Vegas. She is an experienced photographer and it shows. I would recommend Sarah for your wedding in Vegas EVERY TIME!

We recently had Sarah Jay Photography do our wedding pictures, and she was amazing! Our pictures came out so pretty and she captured the essence of our entire day. I feel like the day flew by and I was able to look back at our photos and kind of re live the whole day. We had a consultation where I was able to tell her about some specific pictures I wanted her to take and she got them all and more. I LOVE every single picture she listened to all my needs and delivered above and beyond! She is the best, I cannot say enough great things about her!

The impressive and talented Sarah, of Sarah Jay Photography, is the perfect example of when skill and professionalism meet. Her artistic prowess with the film medium had my guests at ease, as well as myself. When you are in the crazy final stages of getting married, there is so much to worry about but after meeting Sarah I knew I had one less thing to stress over. She captured our day with a beautiful, unique perspective. Trusting her on one of the most special days of my life was one of the best decisions I ever made! If you are lucky enough to book her for your event I know you will not have any regrets. With her incredible work ethic and amazing style, Sarah’s personality shines through in her work. We are forever thankful, Sarah!

Sarah was the absolute best photographer we could have ever dreamed of. She was so friendly and personable. The engagement photos really make a difference in feeling comfortable on the day of. She even showed/taught our party how to do the "party dance". She went above and beyond. Will absolutely continue to book her for family photos and tell all our friends.

Sarah is the kind of person that you want to be friends with, even after your event is over. I don't even know where to begin. Sarah did my engagement, boudoir, and wedding photos and from the very beginning, I warned her that I never know how to pose or what to do with my hands. When you look at my albums, you'd never know. I immediately felt comfortable with her and she was so amazing at coaching me through the poses.
We had a unique situation because about a month before the wedding, I decided that I wanted my rehearsal dinner to be a surprise wedding. So all the guests would arrive to the rehearsal, but then we'd tell them it's the real deal and the following day would just the reception. Sarah had just posted that her October was fully booked, so I thought there was a slim chance that she'd be able to shoot for us, especially on such last minute notice, but the stars must've aligned because she said she could do it! Not only that, she said that she could split our package hours between Friday and Saturday. She even got us super fast sneak peeks Friday night so we could get poster prints made for the reception on following day.
In every single way possible, Sarah repeatedly went above and beyond the call of duty. I can't imagine having anyone else shoot my major life events.

This lady is amazingly talented and so fun! I found Sarah here on the Knot and immediately loved her style. She is very responsive and helped answer all of my questions.
We had a very intimate wedding and wanted to keep things simple, drama-free, but still have beautiful pictures - and man did she deliver! Sarah helped me figure out how much time we needed with her and was very grateful for her recommendation of 4 hours instead of the 8 that I thought I originally needed. I highly recommend doing the complimentary package with her. It was the first time my husband and I had professional pictures together and it helped her get to know our personalities and helped us get to know her even better.
Her #1 focus is getting all of the shots you want and she does a great job of putting her creative spin on them. All of our guests absolutely loved her and if my husband ever agrees to having more pictures in the future, I would fly to Vegas to work with Sarah in a heartbeat. Thank you Sarah!

Sarah was wonderful! I contacted her short notice before a spontaneous Vegas elopement and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Not only did she capture our memories with her beautiful photography she was a big help finding all the local spots to take great photos. She was kind enough to drive us around and even take us back to our hotel after our session. I highly recommend Sarah!

She is incredible! The moments she captured are stunning. Initially I was concerned about only having one photographer however she did not mess a single moment. She captured all of the family breakdowns we requested and directed poses flawlessly. I could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. I book boudoir and wedding photography with Sarah and I will continue to book her for all of my photography needs! She’s amazing!!!

Sarah was an irreplaceable asset to our entire wedding experience. We packaged our wedding/engagement photoshoot with her, and I HIGHLY recommend doing this. The engagement shoot was so fun in Mt Lemmon and there she taught us about posing. She is great at giving direction and also capturing our fun candid moments. My husband is not a fan of photos but he even had a good time with her. We had so many beautiful photos that it was hard to pick one for our save the dates. On the day of the wedding, she arrived with the best attitude that helped calm my nerves of running behind my own schedule. While I sat in a chair getting my hair done, she finished all her detail photos and set up the cutest area for "getting ready" photos with my family and bridesmaids. She also helped me get into my dress (as my mother has Parkinson's and was unable to zip me) but still left a button for my mom to pretend to close for a photo. That meant the world to me. At the wedding venue itself, she helped me corral my wedding party and made sure everyone looked amazing for photos. She worked great with our videographer, and had a great attitude the entire day. One of my biggest fears of running 1.5 hours behind my own schedule (oops...) was that we would not get all of the photos that I wanted with my large and complicated family, but she knocked out everything on my list! She worked amazing under pressure and our time crunch, and was able to roll with it with grace. Thank you for everything Sarah!

Sarah has did our engagement photos and my husband (who’s not a fan of photos AT ALL) totally loved her. She captured “us”! She was open to being at a lake bed at 104 degrees and even brought a creative idea which was one of our favorite photos. She was open to our football idea as well. For our wedding she was perfect, she was present when needed and captured the exact photos we wanted. Life happened shortly happened after our wedding and our photos were late but given her unfortunate situation she was still perfect! My husband and I live in Arizona and will be traveling to Las Vegas for photos from her in the future. Thank you Sarah!!

Thank you for understanding my family's situation shortly after your wedding. No one expects a tragedy like that to happen to them but when it does, having understanding people like you are greatly appreciated! Good luck with that hubby of yours and cheers loves!

Sarah was amazing! She did our engagement and wedding photos. Sarah is very experienced, efficient and pays attention to the DETAILS (down to a ring turned on a finger). My husband does not enjoy taking photos and she made it easy and painless. He even likes how looks in them. She has a playful approach to her photography which I think make the most beautiful candid photos. I love all of the pictures, especially the golden hour shots she took, breathtaking! I would highly recommend her services.

I loved having Sarah do our engagement and wedding pictures. She was so fun to work with, she was wonderful in posing us, making us look beautiful and natural. The whole session so enjoyable and we were amazed at the pictures she took of us. She was efficient, had ideas of places and poses for us so the shoot sent very smoothly.
I have never enjoyed getting my picture taken because I never knew what to do with myself or they never looked very good but Sarah turned that around for me. I looked forward to our photo shoots. She is an excellent Photographer and SO fun to work with!
