★★★★★ 5.0 Perfect Rating
“The entire experience was effortless from start to finish. Our portraits turned out absolutely stunning. We couldn't be happier.”
— Susan L., Mother's Day
“We hired Sandpiper Portraits for our wedding and every single image is a work of art. The photographer captured moments we didn't even know were happening. Truly a gifted eye.”
— Jackson & Kathleen G., Wedding
“Sandpiper delivered the most amazing portraits for our little (well, not so little any more!!) Shlomi's special day. The session was relaxed and fun, and the final photos look like they belong in a magazine. All of the Hebrew school moms want to book as well!”
— Esther T., Bar Mitzvah
“This is a fake review. The photos turned out so great! The company doesn't even do newborn sessions. I'm not sure why this is on the page to begin with.”
— Daniel & Shaina L., Newborn Session

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend booking 3-6 months in advance for peak wedding season (May through October), as our calendar fills quickly during these months. For off-season weddings, 2-3 months notice is typically sufficient. However, we’ve accommodated last-minute bookings when availability allows, so don’t hesitate to reach out even if your wedding is approaching. Once you book, we’ll schedule a consultation call to discuss all the details and ensure your portrait experience is perfectly tailored to your celebration.
Our luxury portrait setup requires a minimum of 10×10 feet of space to accommodate our professional lighting equipment, backdrop, and allow comfortable movement for guests. Ideally, we prefer a 12×12 foot area which gives us more flexibility for group shots and ensures the best possible lighting conditions. We’ll work with your venue coordinator to identify the perfect location during our planning call, whether that’s a dedicated room, a corner of your reception space, or even an outdoor covered area.
Our team arrives 90 minutes before your event begins to ensure everything is perfect. This includes setting up our professional studio lighting (which requires precise calibration for optimal portraits), installing the backdrop, testing all equipment, and coordinating with your venue staff. We handle every detail so you don’t have to worry about a thing. By the time your first guests arrive, we’re ready to create stunning portraits that will last a lifetime.
Our portrait experience accommodates groups of up to 8 guests comfortably in a single frame. We love capturing everything from intimate couple shots to fun group photos with the wedding party or family members. Our photographer is skilled at arranging groups of any size to look natural and flattering. For larger groups (like the entire bridal party), we can certainly accommodate with some creative posing and composition adjustments.
Absolutely! We offer two backdrop options, including all white or dramatic black, to match your wedding aesthetic. We are happy to shoot on a client-customized backdrop that is provided. We can work with you on ordering or adding on the backdrop. For the prints, we can add custom text, monograms, or your wedding date to create a personalized keepsake. During our consultation, we’ll discuss your vision and color palette to ensure the portrait experience seamlessly integrates with your overall wedding design. Many couples choose to match their backdrop to their wedding colors or opt for timeless black and white prints.
Yes! Every guest has the option to receive their individual portraits digitally through instant email or text sharing right at the event. Additionally, we provide the couple with a complete digital gallery of all portraits taken during the evening, delivered within 48 hours of your wedding. This gallery includes every image from the night as high-resolution files suitable for printing, sharing on social media, or creating thank-you cards. It’s a wonderful way to see all your loved ones captured beautifully in one collection.
Our all-inclusive package features a professional photographer dedicated to your event, studio-grade lighting equipment, your choice of backdrop, real-time professional editing, instant digital sharing capabilities for guests, and a complete digital gallery with all images delivered after the event. We also include setup, breakdown, and all necessary equipment. There are no hidden fees or surprise costs. Our photographer doesn’t just take photos, they guide each guest through poses, ensure flattering angles, and create a fun, comfortable atmosphere.
Unlike traditional photo booths with automated cameras and harsh flash, our portrait experience features a professional photographer who brings artistic vision, expert posing guidance, and a human connection to every shot. We use studio-quality continuous lighting (not flash) that creates soft, flattering illumination similar to what you’d find in a high-end photography studio or magazine shoot. The result is Vanity Fair-style portraits that look like they belong in a gallery, not novelty snapshots. Every portrait is professionally edited in real-time before printing, ensuring flawless, timeless images your guests will treasure.

Let's Create Something Beautiful Together
