Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
We have been in the photography business for 25 years. This is our sole passion. We have no other job or business. Our attention is totally dedicated to the art of Photography.
What is your primary product or service?
Our primary service includes very special Weddings, and after the weddings, couples continue using our photography services for their growing families (maternity babies, and children), and for any special event. We also do corporate photography, and have had customer's referrals at their places of work and business.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
Creation Waits is run by a husband and wife team, Marge and Allen Thornburgh, and we are both members of the Professional Photographers of America. We have both had a passion for photography ever since we met and it is the glue that keeps the love flowing.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
We have 25 years of experience that not only produces amazing photographs, but our experience helps the bride and groom feel relaxed on their wedding day. We have been recognized over the years as top photographers in Washingtonian Magazine and The Knot. We have a studio in Arlington (Cherrydale) and create beautiful Portraiture that lasts a lifetime.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
We are located in Arlington, Virginia. Since we specialize in very special Weddings, we do not send out other photographers ("associates") to cover your wedding, therefore, we have no plans to expand. Getting to know our couples before the wedding is very important, and it is very hard to do that with a large scale operation.
Provide detailed directions to your location
We are located one mile from Rt.66 and are very easy to find. Take exit 72, and at the end of the exit, turn left onto Lee Hwy (Rt 29). Go approx. 1 mile to the first major intersecion, and turn left onto N.Quincy. Go one block and turn right onto 21st St. Up the hill 2 blocks and we are on the corner of 21st and N. Randolph. The address is 2100 N. Randolph
What type of payments do you accept?
We accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. We also accept checks.
Which areas do you service?
We serve the Greater Washington Area and all of Virginia. We have also photographed weddings in Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, N. Carolina, and Georgia
Who owns your company or runs daily operations?
The company is owned and operated by Marge and Allen Thornburgh. Noelle Thornburgh is the Office Manager and is also a photographer.
What are your hours of operation?
Our hours of operation are Mon-Thurs 10am-8pm. Some Saturdays are available for meetings and portraits, but are usually wedding days. Evenings, after work, are the best times to meet.
