Andrew + Andrea | Wedding in Chandler, Arizona {Part I}

Photography by Kimberly Jarman + special thanks to Emily & Diana as 2nd photographers.

I’ve been super super excited for this wedding for quite some time. Andrea was in Jessie and Matt’s wedding way back in 2007 and I LOVE shooting weddings for friends of clients, especially these guys!!

I got to know Andrea and Andrew a little better when they came up to Pinetop this summer to do their engagement session (which turned out amazing by the way… pictures from that to come later!) and we had so much fun! Such a wonderful couple and so perfect for each other.

Andrew and Andrea met on a school bus on the way to a baseball game back in Pharmacy school. Andrea still laughs at their introduction because after she had told him her name, Andrew said, “my name is the same as yours, just not with a W and with an A”!……. From that point on they hung out all the time throughout pharmacy school and beyond!

The wedding was truly wonderful. Andrea got ready at the Royal Palms with her girlfriends and family. When I walked in Andrea grabbed my hand and said, “oh i’m so glad you are here, I feel so much better knowing you are here and now I know the day is going to be wonderful”. It was so sweet and of course made us love her even more!!

Diana, one of my amazing shooters, hung out with us and got some amazing shots, which are mixed in with all below and Emily, my other amazing shooter, hung out with the guys and got some great shots of them hanging out and getting ready! I have to say that I am truly blessed with my amazing 2nd shooters and so thankful for the amazing pictures they got! So thank you to them!

I love this shot that Diana got from the back… love these robes.

Emily was able to get some AMAZING details for me since the flowers were all over with the guys. Love these pics and these flowers.

I LOVE ring shots!

Again, thanks to Emily for getting these guy details and pictures of the guys getting ready! It looked like so much fun!

The Guys all had different fun socks, but Andrew is a diehard Greenbay fan, so his of course were Green and Yellow!

Andrea’s gift for Andrew… a little red book… that’s one great smile!!

Andrea’s dress was amazing and looked gorgeous on her!

Isn’t Andrea’s mom so gorgeous? I could tell it was her the minute I met her, she looks so much like Andrea! – Thanks To Diana for such a great capture!

 

Diana got these AMAZING captures of Andrea’s brother seeing Andrea for the first time. They are super close, so these are such great moments.

Andrea’s Dad watching her open a gift from Andrew! Love this one too!

This was a wine box that they were going to celebrate with on their one year anniversary. Andrew made the box himself. What a special gift.

Portrait time of Andrea.. gosh she is beautiful!
