“From our first conversation with Toussaint Productions, we knew we had found our DJ. Their communication was incredible throughout the entire planning process, and they answered every question we threw at them. On the day of our wedding, DJ Paz showed up ready to make our celebration shine—when our venue tried to change things around, he stepped in and made sure my bride was the priority and felt happy. What really stood out was how they balanced being super professional with genuine warmth, which honestly isn't easy to find. They're so good at what they do and created a vibe that had our guests dancing all night long. The value we got for what we paid was amazing, and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ team.”

And of course, a fair price for our budget! Marcus checked every box and more. He also went above and beyond in his customer service. The planning process can be overwhelming and dealing with the vendors can be so stressful.

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.

“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.”

  • Serves Odenton, MD

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.

“My husband Luke and I got married in September. We had a weekend, woodsy wedding. We are very laid back, gave a rough vision and were exceptionally pleased with Aira, and the photo she took. We didn’t enjoy the idea of being center of attention (kinda challenging during OUR wedding) and what we both were most looking forward to was watching our large families blend together and celebrating as one big family. Other than ensuring we had a few group photos, we didn’t want structured, posed looks. The reason we wanted a documentary style wedding was to capture the emotion of the celebration without forcing it. What we mostly wanted was someone to capture the small moments caught between people on the sidelines. Aira was great- so helpful and courteous, plus we really enjoyed her second shooter. We can tell they enjoyed being there. So far we have seen our first looks (WOW- I’m beyond thrilled. The photos of us are great, more than I could have wished for. Caught some cute moments and I’m beyond exited to see the rest- during the wedding my heart would smile at all the photos she was taking and moments she was capturing of our guests). We had friends with vlog cameras (similar to the cinematographer option she offers in which your friends film the event. Aira during our wedding day helped them find good angles for the tripod and even got some great shots herself when it was passed to her. She was very quick to offer help). To use my own words, the below is the email I sent to Aira following the wedding)… [Hi Aira!! Omg- thank you so much. SO MUCH!! For everything! And your second shooter was amazing, thank you for choosing and bringing her. Luke really loved her and the groomsmen really enjoyed her energy. Thank you both so so much - our family and multiple people said your shooting styles really complimented each other. A perfect team! Luke and I thought you both really understood our vision, how we wanted our day to run and feel, and you did an amazing job capturing our vision without ever feeling pushy or burdening and I truly felt as if you both were happy to be there and having the time of your lives. —I certainly was! I hope you enjoyed our crazy, entertaining, and endlessly loving family. I hope you had a fun time blending into the background and watching our love story. We both think you did an amazing job already, and we haven’t even seen any yet (except that video [Aira took] of me dancing! Thank you so much for making me feel like a star! You are so overwhelming thoughtful. Thank you for helping our guests pick good vantage points for the video tripod. We made a great choice when we picked you. We have been so blessed). Saturday was the best day of our lives. We have never felt so loved, seen, and cherished. Thank you again (both of you!) from the bottom of our hearts. I remember sharing before our day started that Luke and I, although we’re so bold, tend to shy away from center stage. We were nervous about having a day just about us. You made us feel so special and we know your photos will let us encapsulate and relive those feeling forever. Thank you. (We love you lol) Megan and Luke, the newlyweds 3] (Aira sends the sneak peak photos shortly after the wedding. Amazing. Plus as a surprise bonus, sends us a few brief videos she had captured throughout the night to add to our cinematography footage. What a sweet gift. So of course I was beyond thankful. Such a sweet angel, A service) 9.19.26”

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.

“Atalie Day Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From our first contact, Atalie's communication style was professional yet personal, and she was always easily accessible to answer any questions we had. Her work is truly professional, beautiful, and feels like artwork - Atalie captured every special moment of our day, and her pictures will bring our perfect day back to life every time we look at them. I can't recommend Atalie enough - she is so easy to smile at and work with, and she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was captured beautifully.

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 was initially torn about having a videographer for our 2021 wedding but ultimately decided to make it an addition thanks to a recommendation for Marc. Mako Productions was budget friendly offering a variety of packages. Marc was very kind and listened to my vision and inspiration and was able to make it happen. I was worried it would be awkward to be filmed but Marc blended in and worked with our photographers seamlessly. We didn’t even notice he was there in the best way. He captured some fantastic footage and the end product was just what we were hoping for! Each time we watch our wedding video it brings back all the rush of emotions and happiness from that day.

He was super approachable and responsive to our questions. When we sent him our playlists for what we wanted him to play he went over each song and made sure he had the correct song by the correct artist which was super helpful. Now for where he saved our wedding! Our venue made a mistake of using our props for a wedding the night before but when CJ found out, he offered to use his cold sparks for us which was absolutely amazing!

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.

“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.”

“We had our wedding in the ballroom. Very scenic and beautiful venue! Overall a pretty good venue that includes food, tables, chairs, linens, etc. The ballroom house itself is beautiful with lots of light indoors due to the large windows, and a nice deck for an outside ceremony. Zoe communicated with us and answered all our questions and did our tasting and planning, until a week before the actual day where we were assigned a day of coordinator. I found this system to be not great, since the day of coordinator was essentially a stranger that you've never talked to at all, and you basically have to re explain everything you want. Even though they have an online planning tool (which is old and outdated), I found that they got our aisle directions wrong, the reception layout wrong, and our dinner meals were wrong. Thankfully, we had a separate planner that was able to correct these things, so I recommend getting an outside coordinator that works directly with you if you have room in the budget. Another thing was our limited setup time of 1.5 hours meaning the florist and other vendors couldn't set up earlier with more elaborate decorations and had to do something simple. I found out that this is because they had another wedding at the same place before ours (literally ending at 4) and so they rush to get the place cleaned for the evening wedding. The main room and the suit was renovated, but the bathrooms were all still dingy and not the best/cleanest to use. The food was good though, better than we had at our tasting and they got it out fast. Our vendors were fed the same food, and our guests thought it was pretty good wedding food. Apart from the couple hiccups we had, we thought the venue was great overall and really beautiful and we don't regret having our wedding there at all. It could be a little bit better in the small details for the price though.”

I am a full time award winning professional photographer born and raised in the Annapolis area. I photograph just 30 weddings per year, and I have photographed over 300 weddings in my 11 year career as a wedding photographer. I am truly passionate about creating images that my couples will love and have to look back on years and years from now and to share with future generations. I strive to be best friends and fierce cheerleaders of my couples, because you should not only love the photos your photographer produces, but also love the person behind the camera.

“My husband and I were so happy with Christa Rae Photography for our wedding day. Christa's communication was professional, quick to get back to us, informative and friendly throughout the planning process, which made her a joy to work with. The quality and value of her work was amazing - she has a classic style that results in gorgeous, timeless photos.

“Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.”
