  • DJ

Do you like to actually have fun? Do you like good music? More importantly do you like to dance and make memories? Well, you have come to the right place. Search no more, you have found the DJ for this job.

I’d like to start by stating that I am bad with music. I don’t know song names and I mumble every song… Luke asked me about the crowd, the theme, and targeted music genres. I answered 2 out of the 3 questions... In regards to the music question, all I gave him was my idea of the set list… Literally my description was “Something that you had on your iPod long ago that you can still sing today and isn’t super niche”…. Shortly after he had a small list of songs that we went through. We kept some and removed some, but the songs we removed he asked why and thought of replacements. On the day of the event he brought his high quality equipment and began his craft, that is providing a great party experience. Every single person in there sang and danced from 730 to 10. Everyone also asked who he was and how the he kept nailing song after song with beautiful transitions in between. I respect many lines of work/professions, but I really appreciate and respect those who are passionate and hard working within their line of work. Luke is definitely someone who works hard and goes above and beyond to make sure the party is of high spirits, good energy, and inclusive!

Dagment Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Crofton, MD
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

Passion is what drives me in photography and real people and real moments evoke that passion. I yearn to connect with people I work with on a personal level. My goal is to make everyone I work with as comfortable as possible. The less of me you see the better! I want the photo to be derived from real, true emotion. So emitting myself as much as possible helps keep the genuine spirit of you and the moment front and center. The more you can simply enjoy your surroundings, free of worry about the fact that your photo is being taken, the better the imagery will be. If you have an interest in working together I would love to hear from you.

Tawney from Dagment Photography was truly the best photographer we could have ever booked. She is fun, kind, calming, and exactly what you want in a photographer on such an emotional, fast-moving day. She was always there when we needed her, but never in our faces. Our guests felt comfortable, not posed or interrupted, which made a huge difference. I kept joking that she is basically a nature photographer in human form. She somehow managed to quietly observe everything and capture the most incredible candid moments. The photos from both our engagement session and our wedding are stunning. Beautiful, emotional, and professional without feeling stiff or overproduced. Every single image feels intentional and alive. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day exactly as it happened, not a staged version of it. I will absolutely be using Tawney for any future milestone or life moment where I want photos that are gorgeous, candid, and truly well done. I genuinely cannot praise her enough and would recommend her without hesitation.

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.

Exactly one week ago, I married the love of my life. I could not have managed the stress of planning a wedding without the grace of God and EventBay, LLC. From consultation to day of, Bashan McLeod (owner) exuded professionalism, profoundness and poise. Her skillset, knowledge and expertise of wedding planning and event planning provided a sense of ease and allowed me to focus on the only important thing…marrying my husband. Lol. I retained the Day of Coordinator service from EventBay, LLC. and the Event Agenda a la cart service to make my big day manageable. Bashan went above and beyond, she always did a monthly check up on me to see how I was doing before her services started. And when the 30 days out started, this business owner was on it! She also recommended vendors when my now husband and I were stuck and could not find a DJ. My entire wedding party was in awe of the seamless transitions between timeline tasks and how Bashan and her team got us together. I am so very grateful to have found EventBay, LLC. I literally had no clue what I was doing. Bashan was clear and concise, personable, and fancy. I would definitely utilize EventBay, LLC.’s services again in the future for any event. Truly a God send!!!!

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.

Buxton Media was so professional they knew just how to set up and do things. They communicated really well too. I didn’t even notice them around all day (except when they introduced themselves haha).

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.

Christa delivered us everything we wanted and more! From the start, Christa was organized and communicative about everything. We got to know her during our Engagment photo shoot and were excited to work with her then and at the wedding. She helped us figure out our day of timeline and how photos would fit into it since we were planning on doing a first look and knocking out ALL of the immediate family portraits out of the way… and there were 140 photo combinations we wanted due to us both having 3 siblings each and divorced parents. Christa and her second photographer captured these photos ALL before the ceremony even started - plus a few additional photos we love but didn’t initially have on our shot list. We picked Christa based on her style and editing and we are more than pleased with the products. We have gotten back our full gallery and there are SO many photos - it’s going to be very difficult picking our favorites to hang around the house without overwhelming the walls . All of our friends and family love the photos so much and have even asked who our photographer was. We will always recommend Christa!

I cannot recommend O’real Bakery enough and plan to every time I get the chance. For our tasting the owner Moyofore met me at a location with the most beautifully packaged boxes to open at home so our family could taste with us. Choosing was so very difficult! I think I will need to order the coconut cake separately for a different occasion because it was our second runner up choice. The day-of cake was delivered on time, set up beautifully for our outdoor event with a protective cover that didn’t distract from its beauty, and wow was it stunningly decorated. Perfection. The best part was eating it OMG. My guests were raving!! Not one leftover slice…except for the top of the cake which we will save for our anniversary. Thank you so much for what truly was a delicious highlight of our special day!

We believe every cake should be just as delicious as it is beautiful, which is why we prioritize high quality ingredients and thoughtful design. Our mission is to glorify God while serving people with excellence through the art of baking

Shallom Bakery planned my 40th birthday and it was all shades of amazing. From the start, they listened carefully and took notes to understand exactly what I wanted. They went beyond just baking and helped bring my full vision to life. They sourced some of my vendors, followed up with them, and made sure everything was in place. By the time I arrived, my venue was fully ready. I did not have to worry about anything. Everything flowed smoothly. They also made sure my guests were well fed and properly taken care of. That level of attention stood out. Shallom Bakery is truly top notch. I give them 5 stars.
