Awarded Best of Zola
Eivan's photo and video services were very affordable and were a major reason why we went with them. I think the photos we received turned out very well and captured many of the amazing moments that we had at the wedding. The service we paid for only included one photographer and one videographer but they were both very attentive and made sure to be where the action was the entire day. Overall, the experience was positive and for a bride who was more focused on living through the experience of her wedding, Eivan's did a good job of handling the stuff you don't really want to think about.

In Bloom Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Chester, SC

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.

Hi there! I'm Jackie, and this is my husband & business partner, Cory. Many photographer's "about me" section will tell you how they've known they wanted to be a photographer since they were a child. Not mine. I didn't know that's what I wanted until I actually started taking pictures and realized that photography was the creative outlet I had been missing my entire life. Not only am I so incredibly blessed to have this amazing, life-giving business; I'm even more blessed to get to share it with my husband.

Jackie is phenomenal! She and her husband were our best wedding vendors by far. She went above and beyond not only capturing beautiful photos, but also doing things to make sure our day went smoothly. She delivered our engagement and wedding photos quickly and they are stunning. I cannot recommend her enough!

I’ve always been fascinated by the stories existing around me. The fact that there are 9 billion of them unfolding all at once, is something that I think about all the time. that fascination is what first made me pick up a camera years ago. photography to me is a way of understanding and connecting to the world and people around me. my style is heavily influenced by cinematic storytelling, It’s very important to me, that the photos you see have a soul and are a depictions the real life unfolding in front of the lens. my clients are people I truly care about & love, and I hold high importance in really getting to know them before their shoot.

Shea is a storyteller. She captures the hearts and personalities of those she’s able to shoot, along with going out of her way to make them feel comfortable. Her kindness radiates in everything she does!

  • Serves Chester, SC

We lovingly refer to our photography work as our “honeymoon baby.” We began our pursuit of photography shortly before our first wedding anniversary- mostly out of a desire to create art and serve people together. We choose to specialize in weddings for many reasons. We love each other, and when we see others who share that deep commitment to one another we can’t help but rejoice. One of the greatest joys of our work is in capturing the many unique and diverse ways in which our clients share those feelings with each other.

I cannot say enough good things about Rob + Kristen! Not only are they amazing photographers and capture all the moments, but they are awesome people as well! My husband and I were blessed to have them on our big day. Rob has such an eye for a great shot and will work tirelessly to make sure he provides you with the best of the best. Kristen is a girls best friend. When we did posed photos, she was always there to make sure my hair was right, we were standing correctly, holding flowers when I was not using them - she even held my lipstick in her bag for me and reapplied when needed! They got our pictures back to us so quick and we could not be happier!

One of the biggest parts of a wedding day is having the memories captured in a way that allows you to be transported back. As someone who worked in a creative field, I was very picky about who would take our photos and in the end went with George Street because of the company's reputation of delivering quality photos with experienced photographers. I'm so glad we made this choice, because during our first look the weather decided to turn to a thunderstorm and it rained 1.5 inches for the next few hours. While this could be a day ruiner, we quickly pivoted and moved everything into our tent and I know that with a less experienced photographer we might not have the incredible photos we do. Josh was easy to work with, made us comfortable and went with the flow when we had ideas about shooting in the rain, getting wet and muddy. The photos we have are incredible and I can feel the exact way I did when we did our private vows, said I do and had our first dance. George Street also impressed me with a quick turnaround and I loved that I could have all of my images with a fee. I have thousands of outtakes and moments to look at for the rest of my life! I'd definitely make the same choice over again.

We were so pleased with OLAS and glad we hired them for our wedding. By far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They were prepared, communicative, and always available for questions. We were impressed from the beginning with their clear communication and responsiveness and we stay impressed after seeing the end result. We hired OLAS for photography and videography. Both did an amazing job and we were so happy with the results. OLAS also took the time to understand our needs and the unique cultural components of our ceremony (Indian Catholic ceremony) that needed attention. Highly recommend this company for your wedding. We were also so happy with the video quality - it was like watching a movie!

He was super helpful in helping us pose and very skilled in the ways he used lighting to capture our best features. He captured really genuine moments with such skill.

I have always felt uncomfortable in front of a camera and because of this I was so nervous of how they would come out. Well let me tell you….they came out STUNNING. Mike and Joseph from Ledd made both of us feel so comfortable and actually made it enjoyable. They were so creative with ideas to get amazing shots, including a really cool long exposure to capture the nighttime sky. I couldn’t have asked for a better team or more beautiful photos.
