Your wedding day will be one of the most real days of your life — full of emotions, laughter, happy tears, and the people you love most. It deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt. I’m Aira, a documentary wedding photographer based in Maryland, available worldwide. I show up, get to know you, and quietly capture everything as it unfolds — the moments you noticed, and the ones you didn’t. Gentle guidance when you need it. Just you, being completely yourselves. I take on limited weddings each year. If your date is available — let’s talk.

“Aira and her fellow photographer did a wonderful job at our wedding. They were able to capture the entire evening from start to finish, starting with getting ready and ending with our mock send off. The quality of the photos is excellent, demonstrating both skill and creativity. The number of photos is also impressive, providing us with many options to print and remember for years to come. We are extremely pleased with how the photos came out and would highly recommend using them as your wedding photographers on your special day!”

I’m Laura - a photographer and lifelong storyteller who believes that being human is the art.

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.

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.

“We hired Atalie for our March 7th wedding and she did a fantastic job! She has such a great eye and takes such care when it comes to the photos. Our day started off a with a little bit of fog which I was nervous about but the photos she took turned out beautiful. Not only are the photos amazing, but she got our previews over to us not even 2 days later. I cannot recommend Atalie enough! She truly is amazing.”

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.

“I’m the owner of Nines & Co. Candle Rentals, and we’ve now had the pleasure of working with Bashan on two weddings — both absolutely seamless experiences! She is so professional, organized, and kind, making it effortless for vendors to do their part and trust that every detail will come together beautifully. For both weddings, we were able to come in, set up, and know that Bashan would handle everything from there — including making sure all of our candles were perfectly glowing for guests to enjoy a romantic, candlelit reception. She communicates so well leading up to the event and keeps everyone informed throughout the day. It’s always such a joy to work with someone who genuinely cares about her couples and creates such a smooth, collaborative experience for everyone involved!”

My (now) wife insisted on videography for the wedding knowing what a blur everything would be, so we went with Buxton to get both photography and videography in one place. Buxton captured everything for us with multiple photographers and videographers for a full ten hour day from getting ready for both parties to the reception’s end.

“I hosted my daughter-in-laws Hundred Acre Wood themed baby shower brunch at Walden Country Club on 12/8/24. From the beginning and planning with Ilene Murphy everything went smoothly. She even gave me great recommendations for things which worked out well. On the day of the event, I was so delighted with the special creative touches. The sign for the shower had a Hundred Acre Wood map on it, the napkins were folded into tree shapes, and the juice bottles for the mimosa bar had Pooh characters on them. To top it off the food was delicious thanks to Alice and team and the service was impeccable. It was a magical day! Thanks to Ilene, Alice, Grace and the entire staff.”

Carole Ann was incredibly helpful and responsive. In the months leading up to our wedding, she helped us determine what would work best for our vision and budget and explained which flowers would be in season. What she delivered was even more beautiful than I had imagined. The centerpieces were lovely, the altar arrangements were magnificent, and my bouquet was breathtaking. Carole Ann was a joy to work with, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a florist for their wedding or special event.”

“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!”

“Lauren was the BEST to work with! I booked a trial with her and was able to do my engagement photos right after. My wedding wasn't for another year, and the way she listened to each of the small tweaks I wanted to make to the wedding day look was amazing. I have never felt so beautiful before in my life. She provided a "glam" look without me feeling like I had makeup caked on my face. I still felt like myself. Attaching a photo from when my makeup was first completed around 1pm, then a photo from 3am after the wedding! I was still flawless! Side note...her prices feel like a steal compared to other makeup vendors in the area and the quality of service she provides. Book Lauren if you want to slay on your wedding day.”
