I started photography back in 2020 during the pandemic, shooting weddings and events. I kept seeing photo booths at celebrations and thought why not make it easier for people to get both in one place? That’s how I began offering photo booth rentals alongside photography, giving clients a one-stop shop for capturing memories!

“Steven was absolutely fantastic! He showed up early, was professional, outgoing, and welcoming to every guest. He stayed the entire time, making sure everyone had a great experience. The photo booth was a huge hit at our wedding — the digital prints were high-quality and turned out amazing. Steven truly went above and beyond, and I couldn’t recommend him more. If you’re looking for someone who does a phenomenal job and makes your event extra special, Steven is the guy to call!”

Planning our own wedding in 2026 changed the way we think about events. We quickly learned the difference between vendors who simply show up and vendors who make your life easier. Oak & Bloom is a photo booth experience built for couples who care about the aesthetic, notice the details, and want their wedding to feel intentional from start to finish. We obsess over the things most people don't think about until they're standing in the room: how it looks, how it flows, how guests interact with it, and whether it feels like it belongs at your wedding in the first place.

“Hands down, this gorgeous photo booth from Oak and Bloom was one of the best parts of our party! From the custom props to crystal-clear pics, everything was on point and a total crowd favorite. We were laughing non-stop and now have the BEST memories to look back on. The setup looked amazing, the booth was super easy to use, and the attendant was an absolute legend—so friendly and fun! I wouldn't hesitate to book them again!”

“Heidi did a live painting at my wedding in November of 2021. The whole experience was absolutely incredible! Working with Heidi was a breeze. She walked us through the whole process, keeping it very stress-free for me, and had a smooth time working with our coordinator and venue. Our guests were so taken with the whole event!
