At The Observatory we are all documentary photographers and photojournalists – story-telling professionals, whose published credits include The Washington Post, The Washington Times, and Newsweek among others.  We know how to expertly position ourselves as observers to best capture the dynamic story of your wedding day as it naturally unfolds: the anticipation, the big event, the after glow, and the smallest details. We understand how to shoot for scope and scale from ceremonial tableaus to an intimate caress. And we do this in the most unobtrusive way possible. As silent observers in the background, we watch and anticipate those unexpected turns in the day that can trigger the most genuine emotions in motion. These are the once-in-a-lifetime moments that are the sweetest to remember. When they are captured by The Observatory, it is documentary photography at its very best. And though each of us, like a group of jazz signers, has our own unique voice that runs through our work, we all share a genuine love of people watching.
