Jay & Eric | Sayen Gardens Wedding
Sayen Gardens Wedding Photos | James Webb Photography
When Eric and Jay started looking for someone to capture their Sayen Gardens Wedding, they found me on a website called Fearless Photographers. It’s a directory of the best photographers in the world! It’s an honor to be a Fearless member, and I’m one of five members in South Jersey. Funny thing is, I’m good friends with three of he other four! It’s great to surround yourself with talent! While I’d never qualify myself as the best, I’m glad my work caught their eye and they hired me, because these two are some awesome human beings!
Sayen Gardens is a beautiful park located in Hamilton, NJ. There are two sides that offer lots of different photography options. Permits are not necessary unless it’s a wedding. Sayen Gardens Wedding Photos were such a pleasure to capture!
We’re running about oh…90 minutes late.
Yep, Jay and Eric were running behind. But I didn’t stress. I rolled with the day and captured it in the most creative way possible. When they arrived at the hotel, we headed for their room to capture details. And by details, I mean the details they bought two days earlier. Nothing like waiting for last minute!
Jay and Eric were going to have a first look at Sayen Gardens. But they were also getting ready in the same room. And they were also going to drive with each other to the first look. That’s not how it works Jay and Eric!
Somehow me and my second shooter, Jenna managed to keep them looking in opposite directions as they got ready. We even got Eric’s brother to drive Jay to Sayen Gardens for the first look. We felt like magicians!
Hey there!
Jay and Eric’s first look was very cool! We picked a bridge where Eric stood and waited for Jay to come up. They laughed, hugged, kissed and walked down the path to the ceremony.
I now pronounce you groom and groom
The Sayen Gardens wedding gazebo served as the perfect spot for Jay and Eric’s ceremony. It’s nestled in a small opening in the woods located right behind the Sayen House. The marble and iron gazebo served as the perfect backdrop as Jay and Eric said their vows in front of family and friends on a warm, muggy late summer day.
High five!
After the ceremony, we strolled around Sayen Gardens for some creative formal shots for Jay and Eric. My favorite shot happened at the very end when I said “ok we’re done, let’s go party!” and they high-fived each other!
Party!
Jay and Eric’s intimate party was awesome! It started out with the longest first dance ever (Eric’s words), followed by dances with moms, heart-felt speeches and a whole lot of good vibes throughout the night.
JWP wishes these guys a lifetime of happiness and love!

Thank you so much!
You and Jenna really are magicians! haha I don’t know how you two did it but everything was perfect.
Despite us getting ready in the same room, the first look was absolutely phenomenal and you captured the moment perfectly.
Photography was one of the most important things for us at our wedding. We wanted to be able to look back at the happiest day of our lives, and re-live the moment through the photographs, and your photos allow us to experience the love, joy and happiness we felt that day.
Working with you was an absolute pleasure and we couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos. I am so glad we found such an awesome, talented photographer, and that you and Jenna were a part of our special day!
Thanks Jay!!! It was an awesome time and such an honor to be a part of it!
