A standout season of growth, heart, and unforgettable community moments
In a shining example of community engagement and exceptional service, TSS Photography of Wilmington recently partnered with their local Miracle League to create a picture day experience that was as heartwarming as it was memorable. Led by owner-operator James Ratliff, the team didn’t just show up with cameras—they brought a full-service photography experience tailored to the unique spirit of the Miracle League.
And the results were nothing short of miraculous.
A Picture Day That Gave Back
Understanding the importance of inclusion, joy, and memory-making, the TSS team donated free Memory Mates to every Miracle League player, ensuring that every child went home with a professional-quality keepsake. The Memory Mates, featuring both individual and team photos, were more than just pictures—they were a gift of pride and celebration for the players and their families.
But the generosity didn’t stop there. TSS Photography also provided complimentary on-site experiences, including custom backgrounds, instant mobile delivery of images, and friendly, patient photographers who made every child feel like an MVP.
A Triple Win: Community, Experience, and Sales
While the Miracle League event was driven by heart, it also marked a major milestone in the business. TSS Photography of Wilmington tripled its sales year over year, a testament to their growth, reputation, and the power of doing good business while doing good in the community.
Much of this success can be attributed to their commitment to creating frictionless, fun, and meaningful photo days for families. From easy online ordering to creative backgrounds and attentive customer service, the TSS Wilmington team continues to raise the bar in the youth sports photography industry.
Creating Unforgettable Moments
“Seeing the smiles on those kids’ faces and the reactions from the parents—there’s just nothing better,” said James Ratliff. “We’re not just taking pictures. We’re helping families hold on to moments that matter.”
And that’s the heart of what makes TSS Photography of Wilmington special. It’s not just about sales growth (though tripling that year over year is impressive); it’s about building lasting relationships with leagues, families, and communities.
As The Miracle League continues to provide a place where every child can play, TSS Photography of Wilmington is proud to be the team that helps them remember it forever.
