LEARN MORE ABOUT me
My name is Atalie and I live for documenting connections between people! I would describe myself as easygoing, friendly, kind, sincere and passionate. I love children (I have 3), animals (especially our dog Bertie and bunny Cinnabun), peanut butter anything, flowers of all kinds, and beating my husband at Jeopardy (sorry, not sorry!).
Weddings are kind of a big deal, (uh, yeah!) and I take the challenge to heart. My goal is to get to know you, and you to know me, because I want to capture the “real” you, the one with those unique idiosyncrasies that only you possess. I must confess, I was once one of those people who felt “awkward” in front of the camera (and occasionally still do), but over the years I’ve learned how to put myself, and more importantly others, at ease, because my goal is simple: to capture clients as their genuine selves beaming with the utter joy from being in love.
I would describe my photographic style as fine art meets photojournalism; I have a BFA from the Corcoran College of Art + Design in D.C. in photojournalism. I love it when clients trust me and are willing to be adventurous and think outside of the proverbial box.
I also believe in “happily ever afters” because I’ve found mine with my husband of 20 years, Jared. We kinda met when we were kids (we later discovered) we both rode the same school bus, but were reintroduced by my older brother as teens (awkward pause!); we eloped several years later at the courthouse in Annapolis. The ceremony was intimate and beautiful, but went undocumented, neither of us brought a camera to the nuptials--20 years later those memories are fuzzy at best and a huge regret for me and my husband. I have vowed to give each of my clients what I don’t have: wedding photos that they love and cherish forevermore.
We later had three kids, Ezra, Ellie and Jasper.
I love photographing couples who, like me, have found their lover, best friend and soulmate.
My goal is to capture clients at their best, to essentially transcend love into art!

How to Create an Organized Wedding Day Timeline
Choosing our photographer was one of the most important decisions we made for our wedding celebration, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first consultation, Atalie made us feel at ease and truly understood our vision. She went above and beyond in the lead-up to our wedding, preparing thoughtfully for every detail, and her dedication to making our day perfect was clear from the start. Atalie captured every moment so beautifully, from the candid laughter to the heartfelt vows, and everything in between. Our photos tell the perfect story of our day—each shot feels timeless and authentic. We are so grateful for the way she made us feel completely comfortable and natural in front of the camera, allowing us to truly be ourselves. Her ability to capture the emotion of the day, the little moments, and the big ones, speaks volumes about her talent and passion. The love and care she put into each shot was evident, and it truly shows in the final images. Our photos aren’t just pictures—they’re treasured memories we’ll cherish forever. Atalie’s attention to detail, creativity, and the warmth she brought to our wedding went far beyond our expectations. She ensured that everything was perfect and her calming presence helped us feel at ease throughout the day. Thank you, Atalie, for giving us lasting memories we’ll look back on with love for the rest of our lives!
Love notes from past clients
-Meghan & Henry
Atalie and (her team) did an amazing job for our wedding! The entire process was very smooth, and everything was well-communicated. The process started with an introductory call, which was an opportunity for us to meet Atalie and learn about her photography style, and for us to communicate our vision for our wedding. Atalie was very accommodating and even came to our rehearsal so she could locate the best spots to take pictures during our wedding ceremony at our church! The pictures were amazing and timeless, and Atalie did a great job capturing memorable moments during the ceremony, our independent photoshoot after the ceremony, and at our reception! Atalie is responsive, friendly, and very easy to work with and made our wedding day feel extra special! We highly recommend her!!!
