Pick a Bloom was founded on love and laughter in small-town Surry, Virginia by us, a mother daughter duo, who wanted to see our vision of fresh flower alternatives bloom to life. We work primarily with 100% REAL preserved and dried flowers and foliage.

We are so happy with the way out flowers turned out for our wedding day. Paula and Samatha were such a joy to work with! We sent them our color pallet and ideas, which they were able to replicate and make it our own unique array of flowers. They provided great service with sending samples of their dried/preserved flowers and also a flower swap that we had to do. Would recommend for you occasion!

Rachel Walisko Photography

  • Serves Gainesville, VA

Hi there, I'm Rachel, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Washington DC and NYC. With a BFA in Photography and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master's degree in Film Studies from the University of Edinburgh, I have spent over 15 years honing my skills and deepening my understanding of photography as an art form. When I'm not behind the camera, I’m often delving into the world of mid-century design, watching films and going on hikes with my husband, Jamie.

We couldn’t be happier with Rachel and her expertise in shooting our wedding!! My/husband's details came together last minute and Rachel was patient and thorough throughout it all. Our setting went from forest to under a tent with inclement weather and Rachel was still able to get incredible shots. I couldn’t be more pleased with her work and style. I would highly recommend her and would love for our family to use her for future events! Thanks so much for everything Rachel!!!

In Bloom Photography

  • Serves Gainesville, VA

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 the most warm, caring individual you’ll ever meet. From my first consultation phone call to the dedication she showed in completing our wedding photo gallery, I felt cared for and highly important to her. Not only is she amazing to work with but her photographs made me feel beautiful and will be timeless. My husband and I felt so comfortable taking photos when we’ve never had professional photos taken. If you’re looking for a photographer for any special event, I can not recommend Christan enough. I would have spent 10 times the investment to have had Christan be our photographer. Long story short, Christan is the best and her photography skills are unmatched. Every picture in our gallery is AMAZING! Best hype woman!

Erin Winter Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Serves Gainesville, VA

I am so excited you're here! My name is Erin, and I'm your Washington DC area wedding photographer. I'm a sucker for stunning natural light, and have a passion for preserving precious moments and everyday beauty. Big smiles, infectious laughter, colorful flowers and the clinking of champagne glasses are just a few of my favorite things.

I had the honor of being Erin’s first wedding she shot when moved to the DC area! Although there are tons of photographers in the area, Erin’s work truly outshined everyone else’s portfolios and I snatched her up before she even moved to Virginia! Erin had never shot at my venue, so she made sure to come to multiple planning sessions with the venue and my wedding planner to scout locations and build my wedding timeline — with a newborn baby! She made the extra effort to support me in ways she DID NOT need to do, but just another reason why she is in a league above the rest. She made me (and my husband, who hates photos) feel so comfortable on our day while not forcing staged photos once we were tired. We even got film photos that were jaw dropping. My gallery had way more photos than I anticipated, and the turnaround time was quick for the full gallery and sneak peeks. I want to get married all over again just to relive her work!!

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are only good things to say about working with Maggie! We booked her for our engagement photos as well as for our wedding day. During the engagement session, she captured some true gems by helping us stay comfortable and true to ourselves. Leading up to our wedding day she was communicative, made sure she understood what our vision/priorities were, and worked well with our planner. On our wedding day, she was so fun to work with, got some beautiful shots of the big moments, and some incredible shots of little ones, too. Even just in our sneak peaks from our wedding, there are so many lovely candids amidst well-placed staged family/couple shots. She has great vision and good ideas and is fun to be around for the process! Regardless, her work speaks for itself. We highly recommend booking Maggie for your engagement and wedding photos!!

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

**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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nicole was nothing short of phenomenal! From our very first conversation to the day of our event, her communication was excellent. Neither my husband nor I are big on being photographed, but Nicole captured us at our best. She made us feel incredibly comfortable—like we were just having fun with a friend who happened to be taking pictures! Our sneak peeks arrived right on time, and she even sent some ahead of schedule so we could use them for our thank-you cards. More than anything, she delivered exactly what we wanted—the timeless, old-film look that made our photos feel so special. Our vow renewal and reception were filled with so much joy, and a huge part of that was because Nicole helped us focus on having fun instead of feeling self-conscious. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Kelly was better than I could have imagined! She talked with me over a Zoom call at the beginning of planning our wedding and made a wedding timeline with me. Over the months of planning our wedding, we edited the timeline a few times, and I was so happy to have her experience and guidance in that since we were not hiring a wedding coordinator. Kelly was prompt with her responses to my texts and emails, and always professional. Our engagement session with Kelly was so fun, and she made us both feel comfortable during our first professional photo shoot ever. She delivered over 100 photos just from our engagement shoot! The day of our wedding, Kelly wore many hats. She acted as coordinator by keeping everyone in line and everything according to our timeline. She was also basically my maid of honor, fixing my dress, buttoning my gown’s sleeves in the car on the way to our ceremony, and swapping her shoes with mine for 30 minutes so my feet could have a break from my uncomfortable shoes before our first dance. I also appreciated her taking charge when needed. It took some stress off of me and allowed me to enjoy our big day without having to boss people around, haha. When it was all said and done, she delivered about 1,000 stunning photos of our day that we will always cherish, and even sent 100 printed photos as a gift to us. Kelly, THANK YOU for making our wedding day run smoothly, hyping us both up, making us feel comfortable and heard, and delivering such special memories in picture form. 3 So thankful we found you to be our photographer!

By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story.

Have worked with Angela many times now because once you find someone who consistently delivers, regardless of the changes in you or what you’re looking for over time, you don’t look elsewhere! She’s intuitive, creative and captures the very essence you hope for when you just trust the process. Cannot recommend her enough!!! 100 stars!

Hi! I’m Rachel, and my husband Daniel and I are a husband-and-wife photography team based in the Shenandoah Valley. We blend traditional, candid, and documentary styles to capture your day as it truly happens. Our editing is clean and timeless—with crisp whites and natural tones that never go out of style. We’ve been through the wedding whirlwind ourselves, so we’re here to make the photography part feel easy, fun, and stress-free. Think of us as your wedding day besties (with cameras)!

I had Rachel and her husband as my photographers for my wedding day and they were absolutely lovely! They were so organized, friendly, understanding, and so fun to work with! I had exactly what I had in mind for my wedding photos and they nailed my dream wedding photos. Rachel took the time to work with me with what exactly I was looking for and the vibe that I wanted and that showed me how much she really cared and loved her job as well! I truly cannot say enough good things about this amazing power couple and the talent they have. I am so beyond thankful I chose them to capture me and Brandon's wedding!

Greetings! My name is Lionel and I am a full time traveling photographer from New Jersey that specializes in Weddings and Events on the east coast. I've been practicing both photography and videography for going on 10 years now and from the moment I picked up a camera I absolutely fell in love with it. Its difficult to not sound cliche but capturing once in a lifetime moments and then seeing the reaction of clients and their families is a rush and satisfaction that you just can not get anywhere else. Not everyone in life is able to realize their passion but I am thankful that I have found mine and I wouldn't trade it for the world.
