Based in Sarasota, FL, A-Ha Wedding Moment creates live paintings to take you back to the big day. A picture may tell a thousand words but a live painting can capture the essence of your celebration through carefully placed brushstrokes and attention to detail. When the party has ended you are settling into your new married life, you can have a one-of-a-kind work of art to display proudly in your home.
Artist Ha Pham has a background in fine art and has been doing live paintings for several years. This dedicated artist will arrive at your venue early to paint the background, giving her more time to focus on the details while the celebration takes place. Adding even more fun to the experience, Ha can also guide your guests and let them leave their mark on your painting.
You are invited to peruse this creative's portfolio for a taste of what's to come. Aiming to complete the majority of the piece onsite, Ha will then add the finishing touches in her studio. Once this is complete, you and your sweetheart will have a truly unique creation to share with anyone who enters your home.
Ha is now offering guest sketches as a wedding favor, so each of your guests can have a little memento to remember the special day.

Ha is absolutely phenomenal! She painted the most beautiful live wedding painting of our first kiss, and we could not be happier with the result. From the very start, Ha was incredibly communicative, friendly, and easy to work with, making the entire process seamless and stress-free! She truly lifted a burden off our shoulders and brought my wife’s dream of having a wedding painter to life!
What made Ha’s work even more special was her unique approach, she allowed our family and guests to contribute to the painting with strokes of their own, and my wife and I were even able to add our touches to the canvas. It made the piece so personal and meaningful, something we will always treasure. The final painting was delivered quickly and came out absolutely stunning, it’s a keepsake we will cherish forever.
If you’re considering a live wedding painter, I can’t recommend Ha enough. She has an incredible talent, a warm presence, and a thoughtful way of making the experience unforgettable for everyone involved. Thank you so much, Ha, for creating something so magical and memorable for our special day!

Ha was an absolute delight to work with. She captured the best moment of the evening. Everyone could not believe how beautiful the portrait was. Allowing the guests to add a few brush strokes to the painting really made them feel part of this special moment. Definitely consider A-Ha Moment for your wedding. You will not be disappointed.

My husband surprised me at our recent wedding by having Ha there to paint for us. It was such a magical, sweet surprise. Not just because of the beautiful painting, but because of Ha herself. She is so kind, talented, professional, and her presence truly added to our wedding. She felt like family- like she was meant to be there.
Not only is her work impeccable, but the time and effort she put into working with my husband to execute the surprise was heart warming to say the least.
I can assure you that if you have Ha at your wedding or event, you will not only leave with an incredibly special painting, but likely, a new friend!
10000/5 stars from the Vaughans!

I was genuinely excited to have A-HA MOMENT as the painter for my brother's wedding; her work looks amazing, and she has such a genuine vibe. Unfortunately, a hurricane caused us to postpone the wedding, and she wasn't available for the new date. However, she was incredibly understanding and easy to communicate with. I would definitely consider hiring her again for future events!

Hiring A-HA Moment was the best decision ever! I have been wanting a live wedding painter for years but could never find one locally or in the style of art that I liked. One day I stumbled on A-HA Moment and what a blessing it was! I loved her artwork and when I reached out I found the beautiful soul behind the art. Ha was extremely kind and so helpful during the entire process. She truly listened to my vision of the wedding day and the moment I wanted painted. On the actual wedding day Ha was so wonderful and she worked so well with my other vendors, they loved her! Ha and her artwork was the talk of the wedding which is what I wanted. The guests loved walking past her as she worked and would often ask me if I had seen it yet. She even let them paint on the canvas!! Who does that?? Not many painters out there. My friends and family were so excited that they could be part of something so special and they would all tell me where to find their addition. They all were anxiously waiting to see the end result with us. Everyone was so impressed and many had never seen live paintings done like this so it made our wedding so much more unique. It was absolutely perfect! I could not say enough wonderful things about A-Ha Moment, check out her work!

Ha was absolutely amazing, not only was she communicating with me prior to the wedding to know exactly what we wanted, but she was so kind in person and very talented and professional in her work. Her attention to detail captured our backgrounds, and outfits so perfectly. We were able to see the painting before we left the reception that night, but she then took it back to her studio and added even more detail!!! It was absolutely amazing and one of the best experiences. She made sure that we received the painting safely as soon as we were back from the honeymoon. She even captured behind the scenes videos that she shared with us after we received the portrait. We got to see other people’s reactions as they watched her paint, and she even allowed our guests to add to the painting! Overall a great experience working with Ha, and it was a pleasure to have her paint us on our special day.

From our initial conversations to receiving the finished painting, Ha was fantastic and made everything so easy. Her offering is straightforward and her work is truly exceptional. Guests young and old alike were enthralled by her talent. Words to describe Ha would be professional, poised and kind. Highly recommend.

Ha was so amazing to work with! Great communication from the moment I inquired about her services, and even post-wedding! She timed our painting delivery to arrive the day we returned from our honeymoon. It was the most special delivery to come home to! Our guests loved getting to participate and watch. Ha's work is beautiful and we are lucky to have this special piece in our home forever. Thank you, Ha!

Ha was hired as a surprise for me and my husband. We had a short meeting while I was getting ready and she had a game plan. Immediately after our ceremony she got to work…. I was not prepared for how beautiful this painting was. All of our guests loved the experience of helping add small details. Ha is the sweetest person and truly added such a golden light to our wedding. I will forever refer her to anyone wanting such a beautiful keepsake

I can't say enough wonderful things about Ha and the experience of working with her as our live wedding painter! Her work is truly stunning and we were blown away by our painting. Additionally, the fact that she lets guests participate is just so much fun. She was the highlight of the evening for many of the guests! Weddings can be expensive and there are many decisions to make about how to spend your money, but choosing to add Ha to your wedding will not be something you regret. Working with her was an unforgettable experience and her art will be something we cherish for years to come. Thank you, Ha!

I hired Ha to capture my mother’s first dance at her wedding after finding love at the age of 70! What an amazing experience for all of the guests and my mom and her new husband. All of the guests loved participating in the painting. My mom was so surprised and loved the idea especially since she is an artist herself. Having Ha at the reception was a hit and so many memories were made. The final painting is stunning and captures the special moment perfectly!

If you are considering having a wedding painter at your wedding, you will absolutely not regret hiring Ha for your special day. She was phenomenal in truly every way! I really had wanted a wedding painter during our reception, who could paint my husband and I in our traditional Orthodox church ceremony. Ha was incredibly sweet and flexible; she came to attend our church ceremony and took a photo of the moment in the ceremony I had asked of her to paint. She then went to set up at the reception (which was 50 minutes away) and was an absolute hit in our reception of 280+ people. The most wonderful and unique thing about the experience with Ha is that she invites guests, families, and the bride and groom to add a small touch to the painting! This is something specific I was actually looking for in a wedding painter, and I had contacted 4 other painters who did not want to do this, before I found Ha. She was also incredibly reasonable in price compared to other live wedding painters, especially because I had asked her to travel. Please please please, if you are in the Florida area and are looking for a live wedding painter, do yourself a favor and hire Ha. Her professionalism, kindness, and talent will surely blow you away. I now have a very beautiful painting of my husband and I during our ceremony, with small painting touches from my husband and me and our dearest friends and family.

Ha was very professional and prompt with her responses. Her work speaks for itself. Our guests loved that they were able to add to the painting. We had our wedding in a different state and Ha sent the painting within two weeks as she had stated prior. It arrived in beautiful condition. Would recommend for anyone looking for a unique and one of a kind wedding memento

Please look no further and book this vendor!!!! She was the absolute highlight of my wedding. She exceeded my expectations. Ha got to the venue hours early, set up and got painting the ceremony drop right away. She was involved with the wedding from start to finish. She was literally there after the Dj turned the lights back on. She is the sweetest person and really knows how to make you feel special on your wedding day. She made sure the guest were involved in the painting and I love how she gets her own content and posts it on her page, makes me feel so special. The painting blew me away. I still don’t understand how someone has so much talent, my whole family still talks about her every Sunday at dinner when we look at the painting on the wall. The wedding day was perfect. Having her there made it that way. Thank you Ha, I would hire you a million times again. Your personalized touch to my wedding is something I will absolutely never forget. Thank you so much for all the talent and love you put into my day.
Love, Jacquelyn Ellison

Han was definitely some of the best spent money on our daughter’s wedding. Her painting is my daughters favorite item of her wedding and our guests LOVED the whole experience. She was very interactive with our guests as they watched the painting come to life. She even allowed guests to contribute brushstrokes to the piece as well. Although the painting and interaction were amazing, my favorite thing was she painted my husband and I into the painting watching our daughters and new son in laws first dance🥹. To know that my daughter will always have that of us watching over her is something I can’t put into words. Thank you so much, Han!

Where to even begin- Ha went ABOVE and BEYOND and helped make our day even more special!
My husband and I eloped at our local courthouse and we had hired Ha to paint our Wedding Portrait at our luncheon with immediate family. She arrived to the courthouse ahead of time before everyone from our party had arrived and our guests enjoyed watching her paint. Ha is very sweet and professional and all of our guests loved her! Our favorite part was how Ha had every one of our guests put in their own little brushstrokes into our portrait!
She captured our first look beautifully and perfectly! Ha has such an eye for detail and captured everything that we wanted in our portrait!
HIGHLY recommend hiring Ha to capture your wedding day perfectly on canvas! 🤍
