Minneapolis Wedding Photographer – John Sharpe Photography Blog

Minneapolis Wedding Photographer John Sharpe is a photographer that specializes in wedding, portrait, and lifestyle photography in Minneapolis St Paul and Twin Cities Minnesota

Meet John!

Based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, I specialize in Wedding & Portrait photography. My photography seeks to express emotion. I wake up each day and adhere to a strict diet of eating, drinking, and sleeping photography. I love nothing more than to capture two people in love. My camera allows me to captures moments that may go otherwise unnoticed. I’m not your “stand there while I count 1,2,3…Cheese” type of photographer. My past clients would tell you it’s likely you will see me shooting from trees, hanging off boat docks, laying on my stomach in sub-zero temperature, or standing over the edge of a bridge. I do whatever it takes to “get the shot”. I love shooting people and can honestly say “I’m livin’ the dream”.

I live with my amazing wife Emily, my daughter Eliza, and my sweet dog Zoe. When I'm not carrying my camera around, I enjoy cycling, rollerblading, and listening to live music. Trying out unique food (Thai, Indian, Turkish, Russian, etc.) makes me happy!

I ♥ Faces – Wedding Bells

29 June 2009 Personal,Wedding

This photo is being entered for a small contest. The goal is to show a face and “emotion” at a wedding. Over the weekend, I shot this wedding. This shot was taken as the bride was thanking everyone for spending their special day with them. The groom shared his gratitude with a smile and a steady voice. The bride, however, began to tear up as she thanked everyone. I love how the bride is trying to hold back her emotions which ironically caused her emotions to peek through even more. It was a tender moment as the bride tried to cover her tears with a smile. The icing on the cake was the groom’s grinning expression of his love and support for his new bride.

Be sure to head on over to www.iheartfaces.com to check out all of the other beautiful entries this week!

Jim & Elya Wedding – Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

27 June 2009 Wedding

J+E plus being cool = AWESOME!! Bridal Party + Super Cool Bridal Party = BONUS!! J+E were married up in Lino Lakes. The weather was perfect. J+E take the cake for having the best “First Time seeing each other” moment. BOTH of them cried, it was “lump in your throat” cute. E+J were so easy to work with and were up for anything. Elya didn’t even question when I had here hold her veil and stare up into the sun. Definitely a favorite bridal party. By the end of the day, I already knew everyone’s name and they were so much fun. E+J thanks for letting me capture your day!!! Best of Luck to you two!!!
