Welcome!

Brad and Courtney // Lesner Inn, Virginia Beach

There is not much I can say about Courtney and Brad’s wedding, other than it was so much freaking fun and an absolute pleasure to be apart of. They are beer loving, butt grabbing and humor loving people and you could literally feel the love radiating off of them all evening.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’ve had the BEST couples so far in 2019! I was so excited to meet and welcome these two to the Sami Roy Photography family!

We started our day together at the Wyndham Hotel at the Oceanfront where Courtney was getting ready. When we walked in, everyone was warm and welcoming and CALM! It was like walking into a friends home, which is always a wonderful way to start a wedding day!

As you probably know if you’ve read my recent blog posts, I’m going to list my top three things that I love about each wedding that I photograph. Weddings are so unique and I want to always highlight my favorite part of wedding days!

So here we go, here are three things that I loved about their Lesner Inn wedding:

Some of their wedding touches were NSFW, but I loved them! Look through the blog images and see if you can find the easter eggs!
Courtney had two pairs of shoes for the big day. While her white, pearly kicks were adorable and elegant, I must say that her something blue heels were amazing a perfect touch to her entire ensemble.
Sometimes us photographers stress that we might miss the first kiss. It can sometimes be a rushed moment with all of the nerves and emotions flying around. Well, not with Courtney and Brad!! Their first kiss as husband and wife was long and beautiful. They did not want to stop embracing each other!

The whole day was amazing. Join me in wishing Courtney and Brad a happily ever after! It is such a pleasure knowing you and I’m so honored that you asked me to capture your wedding day!
