  • Serves Wilmington, NC

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
Hiring Stephanie as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our engagement photos to bridal portraits, and especially on our wedding day, Stephanie captured every moment beautifully and exceeded all of our expectations. Her attention to detail and artistic vision brought our love story to life in every image, and we couldn’t be happier with the final results. Beyond her incredible photography skills, what truly sets Stephanie apart is her emotional and physical support throughout the entire process. She was so much more than just a photographer—she felt like a friend, guiding us through the day with care and making sure we felt comfortable in front of the camera. On the wedding day, Stephanie and her second shooter Sheri were an amazing team, keeping us relaxed and calm while capturing all the important moments. Stephanie’s calming presence helped ease our nerves, and Sheri was always there with an extra hand, whether it was fixing my dress or coordinating the wedding party for photos. Their professionalism and warmth were exactly what we needed during such an emotional time, and they both went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The photos themselves are stunning—every shot feels timeless and captures the joy, love, and candid moments we’ll treasure forever. From the romantic engagement shots to the bridal portraits that made me feel beautiful, and the vibrant energy of our wedding day, Stephanie perfectly documented every stage of our journey. We can’t recommend Stephanie and Sheri enough! They’re not just incredibly talented photographers but also wonderful people who made our experience even more special. If you’re looking for someone who will capture your wedding day with heart and precision, Stephanie is the one.

In Bloom Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,785
  • Serves Wilmington, 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.

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!

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!

Hi, my name is Faith. I have been passionate about photography since 2017, when I first picked up a camera to capture my dogs growing up. What started as a simple love for photographing my pups has evolved into a deep passion for capturing moments that tell a story. Traveling is another love of mine, and Africa holds a particularly special place in my heart. I have been fortunate enough to visit three times, with hopes to have many more trips. When I am not behind the camera, I'm either coaching gymnastics, spending time with my two dogs, or exploring the world around me.

Faith is a phenomenal photographer! I have had the pleasure of working with her on several occasions, all at different venues. She is very well rounded and works extremely well with adults and children. Faith has a soft and kind demeanor, all while producing strong and fierce photos. Aside from her photography, she is wonderful at planning and scheduling. Faith is well organized, giving the customer/family a stress free photoshoot. I highly recommend Faith M.

I’m a mother to an adventurous little boy, a personable little girl, and wife to an amazing man! Loving these three in my life started my venture in stumbling across photography. I’ve always been fascinated by it, and found myself studying it in many forms. It didn’t take long to realize this profession would allow me to be myself: passionate, fun, and bold!

I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique.

I am a natural light photographer. Moved here to Florida 5 years ago from Illinois. I am a wife and a mother of 3 wonderful boys. Located in Freeport ,Florida but I serve from the Emerald Coast from Fort Walton Beach to Panama City Beach and surrounding areas. I am starting to get into more travel with my photography and will also travel to destinations. I photograph from families, couples to Senior's along with weddings and elopements. Looking forward to another great Year and meeting new families!

Sweet Sunkissed Photography was an amazing choice for our wedding day! Kim had great communication with us throughout the entire process and was a true professional. The quality of her work was absolutely stunning - the photos she captured truly brought our special day to life. Kim worked tirelessly to get every shot we wanted, running all over the venue to make sure she didn't miss a moment. She was so kind, fun, and kept us on track the entire day, which was especially helpful given the layout of our venue. Kim was a breath of fresh air compared to some other photographers we had met, as she was never pushy and always remained cool, calm, and collected. We knew our photos were going to be incredible even before she delivered them, and they exceeded all of our expectations. We highly recommend Sweet Sunkissed Photography for any couple looking for an amazing wedding photography experience!

Thomas and Ginger's love story blossomed in 2007, leading to a picturesque June wedding in 2011. Combining over 15 years of photography experience, the Grimes Photography team offers couples an exceptional journey and unforgettable photos. Settled in Greenville, North Carolina, Thomas and Ginger cherish their family life with Kennedy, Houston, and Shepard, alongside their cherished dogs Lilly and Walt. Octavio joined the team in 2022, infusing his passion and nearly a decade of expertise into every project, while relishing precious moments with his wife and two children.

We had the pleasure of working with Thomas & Octavio at Grimes Photography for our engagement pictures, bridal portraits and wedding weekend and I have to say, I could not be more pleased with how this entire experience turned out! Thomas was very personable, EXTREMELY ORGANIZED, and is all around a great person to work with. When you are getting pictures done for your wedding, it is so important to have people that understand your style and vision. Thomas was great listening to us and was so efficient the day of our wedding. I was very pleased about this, since we had a very large wedding! We asked a lot of Thomas when he came out to take our engagement photos on South River. He spent half of the day riding in our nasty boat adventuring off into the sound & mosquito filled woods. But, let me tell you - those pictures were AMAZING! And the photobooth. WOW. YOU NEED THE PHOTOBOOTH AT YOUR WEDDING! We had the best time getting to look at the 300 pictures from our wedding guests. This is a really fun way to capture the thrills of the night because people have the freedom to take pictures the way they want to be seen. Really a fun thing to have at your wedding! If you are looking for a photographer that can capture all of life's beautiful moments...Thomas and his team at Grimes Photography are the ones for you. The photos speak for themselves, but they truly have the eye for what goes into that beautiful photo. We highly recommend Thomas and Grimes Photography.

I am a wedding and elopement photographer located in Wyoming county. I love to take photos of weddings and elopements. Some say I have a true passion for what I do. I have learned a lot since I started and each wedding or session I am always striving to learn more. As a business owner I am fully insured and strive to be professional at everything I do. It's my goal to be able to do this full time someday! I love being able to capture someone's day it brings me happiness. I'm a pretty laid back go with the flow type of person. I do my absolute best to provide you with photos you'll remember forever.

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Tabatha was more than willing to help with any wedding issues I had. She captured so many amazing photos. I’m so thankful we chose her for our big day. Because of her, our wedding was captured in beautiful photos to be reminded of our gorgeous day.

We first met Karen when she shot our engagement photos through an Instagram contest she was running- little did we know that she would she would be with us for our entire engagement & shoot our wedding as well!! How lucky are we?! Karen is a true joy to work with- her personality truly shines while she is behind the camera. During both our engagement shoot & wedding these were the first times we were in front of the camera- Karen directs you and certainly makes you feel comfortable! ALL of our photos are absolutely beautiful. She is very flexible & easy to work with. Highly recommend getting in front her lens :)

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily was such a pleasure to have be a part of our day! She was very professional through the entire process and made sure she knew exactly what we were looking for and expecting. We received a few teasers within 24 hours after the wedding that we could share with friends and family and received the entire package in a very timely manner! All of the ceremony shots were so intimate, the traditional shots turned out perfect and all of our couple shots were so elegant and very creative! Emily did a great job taking our vision and making it come to life! We will be showing off our wedding photos the rest of our lives and we are so glad we put our trust in Emily to make them everything we dreamed!
