I simply adore these two people so very much! Sam and Melissa’s day was the perfect way to kick off my local, WNY wedding season! It turned out to be a beautiful, sunny day in Jamestown, NY. I cannot say enough nice things about the vendors, friends and family of the newlywed Lisciandros!

Sam had me laughing all.day.long. If you have ever visited “The Pub” in Jamestown, you’ve probably met or run into this hilarious groom. He owns this establishment and knows just about everyone. I kept joking with him that he must be related to the entire city of Jamestown. And if he wasn’t related to someone… Melissa most definitely was! I cannot get over how big their families are; I think this is the largest family photo I have taken to date! (I could be wrong, but this REALLY was a big group y’all!!) Seriously though, they were an absolute blast.

I hope you all enjoy a few of my favorites from their beautiful spring wedding. It was such a pleasure working with this couple and I can’t wait for them to re-live this day over and over again through these images. Their love is so infectious and so joyful. I know there will never be a dull moment in life for these two!

I don’t know this sweet mother & daughter, but I hope someone who does shares this image with them! I couldn’t help but capture this precious moment!

Just a side note, I believe these passionate karaoke singers were performing their rendition of “Love Story” by Taylor Swift…& they nailed every.single.word.

A special thanks to all the vendors that made Sam and Melissa’s beautiful day possible:
