Fiercefocusphoto Gabrielle Sherwood. Phoenix, Arizona

Portrait photographer

Message for rates/ bookings. I am willing to travel to make your photography dreams come to life!

Hey there, I am Gabrielle Sherwood, owner and operator of FierceFocusPhoto based out of Phoenix, Arizona. A little about me, I was given my first camera at 15 from my grandmother as a Christmas gift, a Canon Rebel XS. At the time it was all the gear I needed to start my photography journey. I didn't know at the time but it would soon become one of my greatest passions. At first, I wasn't sure wha

t I wanted to photograph, so I tried everything, craving to find my niche. It didn't take long with my people-loving personality to figure out it was everything portraits. What started as taking photos of my friends & family, blossomed into graduation portraits, engagements and eventually photographing my first wedding.
​
I have always loved making people feel their best and most confident. I couldn't tell you how many times I get the old " I never look good in photos" bit, which only makes me that much more excited to completely change how they feel about getting their picture taken. My goal is to make each and everyone of my clients feel comfortable, confident, and that we will conquer any fear they have about having their photo taken in the small amount of time we have together. I strive to capture these one-of-a-kind moments for you, and ensure that we have the most fun doing it. I can honestly say, Ive worked with other photographers, and none operate the way I do.

If you caught Part 2 first, here’s how it all began.

This session was almost a decade in the making.

We tried to make it happen three different times over the years, but life had other plans. Every date fell through, every plan shifted, and it just never came together… until last Saturday.

And honestly? I don’t think it was supposed to happen any sooner.

With Cathedral Rock standing behind them, we wandered across the red rocks, hiked toward the ledges, and watched the Arizona wind put on a show—lifting her dress in the most Marilyn Monroe kind of way. It was effortless, cinematic, and somehow even better than we had imagined.

But what makes these photos so special isn’t Sedona.

It’s that nearly ten years after their wedding day, this incredible couple still chooses each other. Every day. They built a marriage long before they built these portraits, and now they finally have bride and groom photos in their wedding attire that reflect the love they’ve spent all these years creating together.

Some things are worth waiting for.

And if you’ve already seen Part 2 in the creek… now you know why it made my photographer heart so full. 💛🏜️

Some stories deserve more than a chapter… they deserve a lifetime.

I met these two when we were all just 16 years old. Back then, none of us could’ve imagined we’d be standing in the middle of a Sedona creek years later, creating something that felt straight out of The Notebook.

Barefoot splashes turned into water fights. Soft whispers became stolen glances. Dramatic dips, lingering touches, and a smolder that could make anyone’s knees weak. Every frame felt like a reminder that the best love stories don’t just survive the years—they get even more beautiful.

Watching my clients grow up, fall in love, and trust me to tell each new chapter of their story is one of the greatest honors of this job. This session wasn’t just a photoshoot… it was a full-blown romance movie, and I don’t think I’ll ever be over it. 🤍✨ If your love deserves its own movie scene, I already know the perfect location 💋

What happens in Vegas… doesn’t always stay in Vegas. 🎲✨

After making it official in Vegas, these two brought the celebration home and surrounded themselves with the people who mean the most to them. Every guest got their moment in front of the camera, every hug felt a little tighter, and every smile seemed a little bigger.

But let’s talk about these bride and groom photos. 😍

Tucked away at a hidden gem of a venue in Mesa, we wandered off for a few quiet moments and created some of my favorite couple portraits to date. The way they look at each other, the effortless laughter, the kind of connection you don’t have to pose or force—it was all just there. The backdrop was beautiful, but these two made the photos.

A Vegas wedding. An Arizona celebration. And a whole lot of proof that when you’ve found your person, every chapter deserves to be celebrated. 🤍✨

2026 and 2027 couples—if you’re looking for a photographer who’s equal parts hype girl and memory catcher, you know where to find me. 😉

“A hot new bombshell has entered the villa…” ✨🔥

Miss Dana walked into this shoot with that quiet confidence that turns heads without even trying. Beauty, brains, creativity, sparkle… she truly brings it all into every room she steps into. Watching her completely lean into this session for updated headshots and stunning portraits just because we’re young, beautiful, and deserve to celebrate ourselves? ICONIC.

A reminder that you do not need a special occasion to exist beautifully in photos. 🤍

If you were looking for a sign to book the solo photoshoot… this is it. ✨

Leslye + Jordan 🔥✨
Finished up their engagement session this weekend and I’m still not over it. First time meeting these two and they trusted the process instantly — love tunes blaring, laughter nonstop, completely flowing with every little moment… and let me tell you, this session COOKED. 😮‍💨📸

The chemistry, the energy, the way they leaned into every prompt made magic happen so effortlessly. And when you throw in my forever obsession with bougenvilla flowers? Game over. 🌺

December wedding can’t come fast enough for these two and honestly… if this was just the engagement session, their wedding day is about to be unreal. 🤍

Ready for an engagement session that feels more like a date night than awkward photos? Let’s make some magic together ✨

Over a decade of photographing this beautiful momma… and the last 6 years getting to watch her babies grow into the sweetest little humans has been such an honor. 🤍

This last-minute spring session with her three favorite butterflies was full of dancing, twirls, contagious smiles, and so much love. The kind of love you can feel just standing near them.

These girls adore their momma in the purest way, and honestly, who wouldn’t? A woman who has moved mountains, leads with kindness, and is raising three beautiful souls that are already making the world a better place. You can already tell they all want to be just like her someday. 🌸

Happy Early Mother’s Day to the moms giving their whole hearts every single day… your love never goes unnoticed.

There was something so beautifully timeless about these two 🤍✨

Before ever seeing each other, they stood back to back for their first touch, sharing private vows filled with emotion, laughter, and quiet tears without ever breaking the surprise. One of those moments that reminds me why I love photographing weddings so much.

And this bride… absolutely breathtaking. Her sparkly gown caught the light in the most magical way, but somehow still didn’t outshine her natural beauty, grace, and softness throughout the entire day. Paired with the romance of stained glass windows and dreamy film-like portraits, every moment felt straight out of an old love story 🕊️💍

An intimate wedding full of elegance, emotion, and the kind of love you can feel just standing near it.

Part 3: the after party ✨

First dances, sweet family moments, cake laughs, and a dance floor that did not miss 🤠💃
Some of my favorite frames? That look during their first dance… and the pure, unfiltered joy when everyone forgot the camera was there.

The perfect ending to the best day 🤍

If your night looks like this, I’m already in 🫶

Part 2 of the magic ✨ (because part 1 belonged to those rowdy groomsmen 🤠)

From “I do” to golden hour glow… Amber & Aaron’s day was pure heart from beginning to end. The kind of ceremony that gives you chills, portraits that feel like time slowed down, and a sunset that showed off just for them 🤍

And then that moment—Amber snagging Aaron’s cowboy hat during their sunset session? ICONIC. Playful, effortless, and so perfectly them.

Getting to capture a love like this has been one of my favorite parts of 2026 so far—the kind of day that reminds me exactly why I’m behind the camera.

If your day feels like this, I already know we’ll get along 🫶

When I tell you this bridal party was next level… I mean nonstop laughs, wild energy, and cowboy groomsmen I had to wrangle like it was my full-time job. 🤠📸

Somehow we kept the boots lined up, the ties straight, and the chaos looking flawless. Exactly how I like it. Big personalities, big love, and a wedding party that made every second unforgettable.

This was only the beginning for the Clark wedding… and trust me, it just gets better. ✨.
