  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Friendship, MD

I’m Laura - a photographer and lifelong storyteller who believes that being human is the art. I create imagery for people who don’t always see themselves in traditional photography: the dreamers, the artists, the misfits, and anyone still reaching for the clouds. My work blends editorial sensibility with emotional honesty. Think expressive color, playful imagination, and images that feel like they’re humming with soul. I’m here to make you feel seen, safe, and celebrated - because the best art happens when you’re allowed to simply be yourself. You bring the story; I’ll build the vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Laura was absolutely amazing to work with. We got in touch with her a little less than a month before our wedding and didn't meet her until the day of (because we live out of state). None of that was a problem though, because she knows what she is doing and coordinates and communicates everything very well. She truly is an excellent photographer who is flexible and wants to do what she can to help make your day go as smoothly as possible. Plus, she is so nice, and makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. You can definitely expect your photos within the timeframe she provides. 7 months later, we still get compliments on her photos.”

I live for documenting the connections between people—the genuine, unscripted, deeply human moments that tell a real story. I’m a wedding photographer with a fine art meets photojournalism style, which I began to cultivate while attending the Corcoran College of Art + Design in DC. I believe in “happily ever afters” because I found mine with my husband, Jared. We've been married for 20 years. I love photographing couples who (like me) have found their person—their best friend, partner, and soulmate. My mission is to capture love in its purest form and turn it into timeless art you’ll cherish forever.

“It’s hard to put into words how amazingly talented Atalie is - from her impeccable ability to capture the most candid and happiest moments, to making sure everyone feels comfortable and beautiful in front of the camera, to bringing an upbeat yet calming vibe, to making you feel like you’re reliving your wedding day each time you look at your photos (which she gets back to you in record timing!). Thank you Atalie for giving my husband and I the most beautiful photos that we will treasure forever. We you!”

My journey into the wedding industry may be unconventional, but it has given me the skills and expertise to execute flawless events with ease. I started my career as a civil engineer, managing large-scale projects where problem-solving, attention to detail, and seamless coordination were essential. While I loved the technical side of it, what truly excited me was bringing a vision to life—orchestrating every moving piece to ensure a successful outcome. Now, I’ve combined my love for organization and creativity into wedding coordination and event planning, where I help couples turn their dream weddings into reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Y’all, it is not an over-exaggeration when I say: hiring EventBay and Bashan was single-handedly the greatest choice we made in our entire wedding process. I cannot thank Bashan enough for her services, in addition to her several helpers who supported our wedding. My husband and I contracted with EventBay for our day-of wedding coordination. We’d heard great things about her through our friend/my bridesmaid, and all the hype was real. When we say we chose her, we didn’t realize that this service would include Bashan showing up to and running our entire rehearsal, giving us wrap-around services the day of, and meeting with us several times leading up to the wedding itself. We were so incredibly grateful for all of the supports Bashan gave us throughout the entire process. In addition to her coordination services, we also contracted with Bashan for balloon decoration. Bashan got to know Miles and I with our initial call, in person meeting at the venue, and zoom call, and with all of that knowledge, she threw together the most BEAUTIFUL balloon arch. This took up one of the major walls in our wedding and was full of rainbow colors (I’m nonbinary), marbled balloons, and was complete with thoughtful details of rainbow roses inserted into every color change in the arch. WOW! Let me tell you: this thing took my breath away. I was married at a local venue, and while the event was GORGEOUS, Bashan insured that I would never be aware that a tragedy occurred at the venue unrelated to the wedding. She handled the issue with grace and her and her staff ensured that those of us in the wedding never felt the impact of what occurred. You never want a disaster to strike at your wedding, but to my knowledge, that day, I wasn’t even aware that one had happened, and that really speaks to the services EventBay provides. From now on, I will be contracting with Bashan for everything. If ever a friend needs an event planner, a decorator, ANYTHING, I will tell them: don’t go to anyone else. This is who you NEED!”

“O'real Bakery provided exceptional service from the time we did cake tasting until our cake was delivered to the venue. The cake was very moist, flavorable and simply delicious. We will be using her again for future events!”

“I honestly don’t want to review her cause someone might steal her from me haha she’s a hidden gem ! A diamond in the rough ! I used to hate when other people would do my makeup but not with her . With any occasion I have used her she always made the look how I wanted it… whether soft with a glow or over the top with a bold lip . I come from a family of artists and her work is art , your face is a canvas she will never paint the same picture , she is all about giving you the personalized look the goes with your skin tone , vibe , outfit or anything else your thinking . She is truly gifted in her craft , and that’s why I call her my wizard, she just works magic ! … also I’d add so many more photos to share but it would let me”

“We got married at Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park and couldn't have asked for a better venue. From our first conversation, the team was responsive and easy to work with- they answered every question we had in a calm, straightforward way. The space itself is stunning, with those open waterfront views that made our ceremony feel special without us having to do much decorating. They even coordinated drop-off for our decor, which saved us so much stress on the day of. The whole experience felt effortless, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the location was. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for a venue with genuine people who care about making your wedding day perfect.”
