DC Event Photographers at The Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture

This event was held at the National Museum of African American History & Culture, which is one of the many wonderful (and newest!) Smithsonian museums around DC.

National Museum of African American History & Culture

1400 Constitution Ave NW, Washington, DC 20560

Special Event Information

From the outside, the building consists of three huge trapezoidal prisms stacked on top of each other. Intricate, delicate patterns that you can almost see through make up the sides of the structure – certainly not a building you just step into without a second glance. Capturing both the exterior and interior to portray its unique style and architecture is a joy!

On the inside, a modern staircase winds its way through the central atrium like a dual-purpose piece of art. We loved photographing it by itself, but it was so much more fun to see all of the guests making their way up the artful steps.

Wow! Big kudos to the event planning team from Capital City Events who designed this evening to remember. The event was held in Heritage Hall with an incredible view of the National Monument from the back wall of windows. This hall is one of the most popular event spaces because of the view as well as easy access to all of the other galleries in the museum.

Capital City Events created such a warm yet exquisite feel with deep orange, shimmering linens and classic white floral centerpieces. The event was set up perfectly for guests to mix and mingle comfortably while enjoying the delicious food from Occasions Caterers. Everything looked simply flawless.

Our team at Event Photojournalism loved having the opportunity to capture this magnificent design and all of the hard work that contributing event professionals poured into making this evening event truly exceptional! DC is filled with talented, creative minds and stunning venues to host just about any event imaginable, and we’d love to be there to capture it all for you!
