Now And Forever Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Southport, NC

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

From the AWESOME customer service to the BEAUTIFUL Photos. We are sooo satisfied with our experience. We had a blissful Beach wedding in Myrtle Beach and I wish I could relive the day over and over. I may not can physically relive it but having these photographers I know we can always see our big day replay for years to come. Thank you again

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

We were disappointed by many of our vendors on our wedding day (a story for another time), but McKenna was an absolute bright spot! She was wonderful to work with - she remembered the priorities we discussed before our wedding day, and was great at rolling with all of the unexpected parts of our day. The images she produced are absolutely stunning! We're so happy we decided to work with her. Overall, her aesthetic is beautiful, and she is kind and thoughtful to work with. Highly recommended!

Hey, I’m Richard Nice to meet you. If you’re wondering who’s behind the camera, you came to the right place. To sum myself up in an “about me” section is nearly impossible, but here are a few things you must know I'm Currently located in the St. Augustine Fl, Iv been taking pictures ever since I could hold a camera, back when we only had disposables ones, but that is when the love for photography started, that's when it was embedded in my mind that I will all way be screeching for the Ultimate photo. Now on top of all that I just recently got married on 02.22.22 so iv been in your shoes with the beautiful chaos that is planning a wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
BOOK HIM!! I found Richard on the knot and I booked him for our engagement photos and our wedding in 2023!! I was looking for a reasonable price but for the best quality photos! I am so glad I chose Ultimate Photos! He responds in a very timely matter, he is very attentive! We had to reschedule our photos due to bad weather but he was able to get us in the next weekend !!! First off he took off the whole day to do our engagement shoot! He told us that he is free the whole day to get the shots we wanted which you don’t get that type of commitment often! He let us do two different outfits and guided us on what to wear so we don’t clash in the photos. At first me and my fiancé were pretty nervous as we have not had any professional photos done before but Richard gave us directions and made us feel super comfortable. We did our shoot at Hanna park in Jacksonville it was beautiful! You can tell he is very passionate and loves what he does! Our finished photos were everything we imagined! They are all so beautiful and all our family and friends love them and we’ve gotten so many compliments!! The quality is stunning and the angles and the lighting capture the day perfectly! He did a fantastic job at showing our love through the photos! So excited for the wedding!!

We got married at a park and then had our reception somewhere else. She was very willing to go on a short hike to get our mountain pictures, drove 30 minutes to our reception, and got every single detail!!!!! She was also very helpful during the wedding! 100% best Photographer hands down!

I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Manai was so communicative. We started with a nearly 2 hour video call. He was so good about making sure he understood our vision. We had several emails afterwards to get his help with our schedule and other vendors. We had a final 1 hour call just before the wedding to finalize all of the details. 10 out of 10. Manai knows his stuff and it felt good on the day of my wedding realizing we hired the right person. He pretty much knew everything that was happening even before it happened. I'm a pretty anxious person so it was nice having someone to kind of help guide the day along. Thank you Manai! Wishing you so much success. You deserve it!

We had the best experience working with Megan for our engagement and wedding shoot. She made us feel at ease and comfortable, especially as a couple who’s not used to being in front of the camera. Once we saw our engagement shoot pictures, I knew we had made the right decision in selecting someone to capture our special day! Megan helped us develop a timeline and prioritize elements and details of our wedding that were most important for us to capture. Our whole wedding day, I felt very comfortable and confident- I knew Megan understood our vision. She was very accommodating, making sure to capture what was important to us. Again, she made being in front of the camera feel effortless. I am blown away with the sneak peek pictures we got back. She absolutely captured our vision, our guests, and my husband and I perfectly. Everyone I’ve sent pictures to has raved about how amazing they look. Her photos are truly stunning and I can’t wait to see our whole gallery. I would absolutely work with Megan again in the future!

I am from a small town in North Carolina. I grew up being in front of a camera doing pageants and modeling. I know what it is like to have no direction at a photoshoot and leave disappointed. I strive to never make anyone feel this way when they leave a session and certainly not on your wedding day. I coach you and help pose you so that you do not feel or look awkward. Photos are not only about how you look, but also the memories that go along with them. When I am not taking pictures, you can find me hanging out with my husband and two kids.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding venue owner we see many photographers here. Stephanie Small is one of our favorites. She captures the beautiful scenery along with the love each couple shares. One of the most important elements you want to consider when selecting a photographer is can she or he do a fabulous job quickly so you don’t miss out on your reception. We are always impressed that Stephanie and her assistants work so efficiently and produce amazing photos. She also has a well organized gallery of photos for the bride & groom. We highly recommend Stephanie Small photography for your wedding!

Hi! I'm Katie with Lone Peak Photography, and I provide elopement and wedding photography for couples who want the most out of their day. A timeless, authentic, and in-the-moment approach to my photography style helps me capture special moments perfectly. In the least cliché way possible, photographing couples is more than a job to me, so I put all of my skill, creativity, and love into my work. I believe your wedding photos are an artistic representation of your relationship and what makes your love unique to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t recommend Lone Peak Photography aka Katie more – I’ve told everyone I can, in every state, how amazing she is and her quality photography. From the moment I first spoke to her I knew she cared. I didn’t have family support to plan my wedding so Katie, a total stranger at the time, stepped in and helped me plan the wedding of my dreams. She was a constant support, easy to communicate with, flexible and helped lift my spirits when the wedding stress was getting to me. She took the time to get to know me and knowing someone understood my vision calmed my nerves. She was mindful of our tight budget and made a plan to capture our key moments. She has a talent for being both professional and genuine. I felt taken care of, especially on our wedding day when things always seem to be hectic and our timeline got a bit wonky. I knew I was in good hands and Katie directed everyone with confidence. She really knows how to capture the real emotion of the day, capturing gorgeous candids and ‘posed’ photos that really feel natural. One of my favorites was when she had us look into a loved one’s eyes- that look you share between you is so special and really shines with Katie’s photography. She wasn’t afraid to get silly with us which made things even more fun. She truly has an artist’s eye, even with the ‘little touches’ photos I couldn’t stop looking at them. I'm not someone who views themselves as beautiful and she made me feel so beautiful. She listened when I talked about insecurities and a favored side for photos. I thought I would have a few I liked of myself but I loved them all! She also wasn’t afraid to take a few editing requests which I appreciated immensely. The quality of her photos is unmatched. I enjoy that it’s really me, crisp beautiful colors like real life in HD without over done filters or unneeded editing. Lighting and scene framing really highlighted the beauty of the day and the happiness of the subjects. Just when the high of the actual wedding started to fade, Katie had sneak peaks ready the next day! I couldn’t believe it, it really brightened our day and calmed any anxiety that I wouldn’t be ‘photogenic’. She’s also great with animals – we incorporated our pets in our day and they are some of the best photos I’ve ever seen of our furry boys and you can see our love for them. I will for sure be working with Katie again, there are so many things I want to do. Family portraits, anniversary, more silly photos, I can’t wait. You won’t regret choosing Katie for any special day! :)

Hey there- I'm Joanna, but feel free to call me Jo! My world has always been filled with photography- through all the years and different cameras, it's always been my biggest passion and love. I am a travel enthusiast and I will always be down to hike up a mountain or explore a new city.

Most importantly, I am a lover of all love and will never get tired of documenting it.

My husband and I decided to elope to NYC from Scotland in 2022. Jo linked us to her Instagram profile following a post on a Facebook group and we instantly fell in love with her whole vibe. Her work stunning. We set up a video call to discuss what we wanted from the photos from our special day - Jo just got it and got us almost instantly. She knew NYC and where to get our pictures done but also allowed us to collaborate and explore on the day. Jo is passionate about her profession and passionate about giving you the best possible experience, flowing with love and positivity throughout. It’s super relaxed and fun. I wish she lived closer - she would absolutely be our go to for all our big life events! We wish we had been able to get Jo to do some of her film shots as well as they are absolutely STUNNING! She was able to get our sneak peak pictures to us quickly and wanted to absolutely nail it for the rest of the gallery and boy did she nail it.

The Cunanans directed our poses, used different angles, and got so many wonderful shots. I'm so pleased!

In Bloom Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,785
  • Serves Southport, NC

Admittedly a hopeless romantic, I simply LOVE love. The beautiful season of life that you're in right now is a gift! Having a photographer you trust throughout the entire wedding planning process, as well as someone willing to advocate for you on your big day, is such an important role, and my biggest honor. The name In Bloom is inspired by my love for flowers and how they can be seen as a metaphor for life. A delicate staple of beauty that grows and withstands the elements, ultimately blooming and weathering the ever- changing seasons. My passion flourishes in capturing life's moments that are beautiful and fleeting, like a flower In Bloom.

Awarded Best of Zola
Christan is such a fantastic photographer! She knows exactly how to make your session feel relaxed, natural, and more like capturing pictures in the moment with your significant other rather than feeling like you are constantly aware of the camera. What’s so amazing is that she will guide you on posing and then just let you have your moment afterwards. This helps prevent any awkwardness of “what do I do with my hands?!”. That being said, she does also take more “formal” shots during the session so you really are getting the best of both worlds! I highly, highly recommend In Bloom Photography if you are looking for a documentary style wedding photographer!

HEARTS in FOCUS was an amazing wedding photographer choice for our special day. From the very beginning, their communication was great - they responded to our emails quickly and were always available to answer any questions we had. On the day of the wedding, they were professional, organized, and made us feel completely at ease. The quality of their work is truly outstanding. The photos they captured beautifully showcase all the special moments and details of our wedding.

My husband Kevin and I were looking for an elopement photographer in Cary, NC. It was a challenge to find the right person as we needed someone who's bilingual (Spanish and English). Candy is a wonderful person and photographer. She made us feel so comfortable, specially my husband who is ex-military and is a little bit of an introvert. I am so thankful for her talent as she was able to capture the perfect moments. The quality and artistic style of her photos are out of this world.

Your Love Story. Told through imagery as vibrant and authentic as you are. Hello, friend! My name is Maria, and along with my husband, Donny, we are the husband and wife foundation of Vimana Photography & Cinema, LLC. We have over a decade in business, global and nationwide clientele, and focus on timeless, authentic, and fun documentation of your wedding day, through fine art photography and cinematic videography. When we aren’t behind the camera, I enjoy interior design, gardening, our menagerie of pets, and travel. Ask us about capturing your destination wedding!

My husband and I got married 10.21.23 and the photos from the wedding were miraculous and we are so I love with them. They are ALL so good and there are 1200 photos. We had them shoot our wedding for 10.5 hrs on the wedding day. The experience before the wedding day was amazing too. They did not include a travel fee which was a big perk. Even though our wedding was in Waxhaw, NC, we had an engagement shoot in Oct 2022 in Montreat NC which they did amazing with as well. We have not seen our wedding video yet but are SO excited and can only imagine what it will be like. Totally Recommend this husband and wife duo for photo video.

My philosophy is simple... I am here to tell the story of the day you married the love of your life. I want to document the excitement of you getting ready with your best friends, the look on your mother's face when she sees you in your dress for the first time, and the tears your father cries during the father - daughter dance, and that "Oh my God, we are really married?!" look of joy on your faces as you walk down the aisle as a married couple for the first time. I will pose you and guide you when necessary, but I believe when you are focusing on each other and really soaking in those moments --- that's when the magic happens.

Megan was the best photographer we could have ever asked for! She captured every aspect of our wedding day from start to finish. She was on time, communicative, and sent the pictures back in a timely manner. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera and helped pose us when need. She also created our wedding album that came out beautifully!

We were absolutely thrilled with Lee Everett's ability to capture not just photos but feelings and moments. From the first call, it was clear that he had a unique talent for seeing beyond the surface and capturing the unique things that made our relationship so special. Lee paid incredible attention to the little things, ensuring that every important element of our relationship and wedding day was documented. He even captured moments we didn’t realize were important to us until we saw them through his lens. Throughout the entire process, Lee was more than just our photographer—he was a dedicated and supportive presence. He was always available to us during the preparation, offering his expertise and guidance whenever we needed it. His consistent communication leading up to the big day gave us a sense of reassurance and confidence that everything would be perfectly captured. One of the best parts of working with Lee was his commitment to understanding and prioritizing our desires. He took the time to get to know us, learning what we valued most and what we envisioned for our wedding day. This attention to detail and genuine care for our wishes played an invaluable role in making my dream of an outdoor wedding come true, despite the weather. When the opportunity for a last-minute shift to an outdoor ceremony arose, Lee stepped up to make it happen. He even coordinated with the entire vendor team to ensure everything transitioned smoothly, which was above and beyond his role as a photographer. His proactive approach and dedication to our vision is something we will never forget. The day would literally not have been the same without him. The photos we have received so far are nothing short of stunning. They perfectly encapsulate the joy, love, and magic of our wedding day. Lee's flawless documentation allows us to relive those moments again and again, bringing back the emotions we felt on our perfect day. We cannot wait to see the rest of the photos and know that they will be just as breathtaking. Lee Everett exceeded our expectations in every way. His artistic talent, combined with his genuine care for his clients, made our wedding day truly unforgettable.

Kelsey is a dream to work with. I looked through her portfolio and knew I wanted to work with her. Not only did I love the engagement shoots she has done, but it was amazing to see that she had done a lot of weddings at the venue I picked. I had her do my engagement photos & 6hrs for the wedding. She was very responsive anytime I reached out. I know wedding season is very busy, I never felt like I was left hanging. While my new husband is comfortable in-front of the camera, I was very much not. Kelsey is great at guiding and making you feel comfortable. Our engagement photos were something different from her portfolio, the arcade, and she did a phenomenal job like I knew she would. Stephanie assisted us on the day of the wedding and she was wonderful too. I provided a detailed shot list for the family portraits and she did a great job navigating the family. After dinner Kelsey was able to provide me with a sneak peek of my photos. I am so excited to see the rest of my photos!

**TO CONTACT: VISIT MY WEBSITE. I AM NOT ACTIVE ON ZOLA.** Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

As a wife and recent Bride, I constantly look back at my wedding day gallery from my photographer. I would say at least once every couple of months! What I love about my wedding photos is that I can remember the day just by looking at those photos. I want that for YOU!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Ashlyn and Sea and Shea was amazing from start to finish! Ashlyn from the booking process through delivery of our edited wedding photos has been a joy to work with. Our time has been so great with Ashlyn and her fun and bubbly personality really keeps the long days of photos light and carefree. We were kind of against doing engagement photos but after a couple of hours running around downtown Charleston and really getting to know her and feel more comfortable in front of the camera it did help tremendously on wedding day. Also, our engagement photos turned out AMAZING! Day of wedding, Ashlyn and her team were professional and on top of it. She got all the shots I wanted and more and our end result photos could not have turned out more perfect :) we are still in awe at the results. Not only do you get an amazing photographer and great photos but she is reasonably priced as well, perfect combination! 10/10 recommend! Now our problem is we found over 500 photos to get printed and put around our house, which is a little excessive but they are all so good we can't decide.

Where do I start? Casie’s all around professionalism and talent make her stand out in the large crowd of wedding photographers. I hired Casie nearly a year before my wedding and she was able to answer any questions I had during that time. She was also such great company on my wedding day - never taking up “too much space”, while also being there whenever I needed assistance. She made ALL of my specific visions come true while simultaneously providing some incredibly unique surprise shots in my gallery as well. I cannot recommend Casie enough!!!!

Michael Freas is the best photographer we could've possibly chosen. He is easy going and yet also professional at the same time. If you are looking for some quality photos where the color pops and stands out, along with some fun candid photos, you found the right person! As soon as he pulled up to our venue he saw some flowers which were off to the side and knew immediately he would bring us over to the field where the flowers were. None of our guests even saw the field of flowers, he just has an eye for this stuff and knows how to control a camera phenomenally! We loved working with him!
