Tempe Center of the Arts Wedding :Sharri and Justin

I
first met Sharri and her sweet mom Pam at Starbucks last year. We chatted about the wedding details over a hot cup of coffee, but most importantly, Pam and Sharri shared their desire for good wedding photography. Most of all, family portraits were extremely important to them. I promised them we would get LOTS of family photos throughout the day. When the day finally came, I watched Sharri and Justin interact with their family and witnessed so many amazing family moments between. Not only are Sharri and Justin's family some of the NICEST people we have worked with, but some of the most emotionally sweet and candid people we have ever seen in one place. I LOVED that all of them wore their emotions on their sleeves. It was easy to feel moved watching them love each other.  
 
I have only good things to say about Sharri and Justin. Sharri and I have been communicating a lot back and forth with each other through e-mail this past year and I appreciated how she didn't always want to talk strictly about wedding photography. She deeply cares for people and it was so easy to feel like Sharri was my friend not just a client. I absolutely adore these two and honestly felt like I was attending a friend's wedding and had the honor of documenting it on film.  
 
Sharri and Justin, you two are genuinely beautiful people inside and out. It's extremely evident how much you two love each other and I hope we will stay in touch! I love you two and feel so grateful to have spent your wedding day with you. Thank you for the honor! Have a WONDERFUL time in Rome! :) To see a slideshow of the wedding day, click HERE.
I love this shot because all the guys are putting their ties on at the same time.
This was one of my favorite moments I've ever seen at a wedding. Sharri's Dad wanted to see her immediately after she was finished getting ready. He waited outside her door and shortly after we saw this expression :)
This is one of my favorite photos I've ever taken. Mostly because I felt like everyone in the room was feeling the same way.
Sharri and Justin's first look was TOO cute. Justin turned around a little bit early but it was perfect timing!
Sharri, YOU ARE GORGEOUS!
Another favorite moment was watching Grandma and Grandpa see Sharri for the first time. Pure joy and happy tears!
The signing of the Katuba is one of the steps to making a Jewish marriage official. I loved watching Sharri and Justin together share in this moment.
Justin's parents were thrilled.

A special thanks to Petal Pushers for designing such amazing florals!
I loved how the little tulips floated inside glass balls within some of the vases.
The speeches were amazing. Lots of laughter,......
and tears..
This is Justin giving Sharri his BEST dance for her while taking the garter off.
