THE STARLIGHT BALL WILL BE HELD AT THE NEWLY OPEN AND BEAUTIFUL SHENANDOAH BALLROOM.

LOCATED IN MARTINSBURG, WV THE VENUE IS WITHIN 2 HOURS OF WASHINGTON DC, BALTIMORE, FAIRFAX, HARRISBURG, AND COUNTLESS OTHER MARYLAND, PENNSYLVANIA, WEST VIRGINIA, AND VIRGINIA TOWNS.

INTRODUCING THE VENUE:

Aloft Studio & The Tayem Photo Co originally bonded over the mutual love of fantasy novels of all things. So in celebration of the new partnership of these two long-known and trusted businesses and pillars of their communities, it was decided that a ball inspired by the novels that brought them together should be the kickoff event.

The Tayem Photo Co is proud to be a trusted pillar of the South Central Pennsylvania photography community. From educating photographers, to mentoring other women-owned businesses, to curating and hosting one-of-a-kind styled shoots... The Tayem Photo Co is dedicated to being building blocks for all who dare to dream. The Starlight Ball will be a labor of love like all of the others.

Nestled in the heart of Hagerstown, Maryland, Aloft Studio emerges as a beacon of creativity and empowerment. Owned by Audrey, a photographer with a profound dedication to boudoir photography, Aloft Studio is a space for photographers and creatives alike. Audrey's mission goes beyond capturing beauty through her lens; she aims to empower women from diverse backgrounds, celebrating their unique stories and strengths through connection and education. She is committed to nurturing talent with Aloft Studio doubling as an educational hub, offering workshops and sessions designed to equip budding photographers with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in their businesses. Audrey values helping women build connections with one another and is so excited to watch the Starlight Ball work its magic in that way

We are so excited to bring to life this celebration of imaginative hearts, and can't thank you enough for trusting us with this vision.

with love,
Audrey, Taylor & Emily
