45 minutes from Cairo
Sand Dunes
Open dune country close enough to Cairo to shoot at first light and be back for breakfast. No skyline, no other people, nothing in the frame that dates the photograph, just sand, wind and whichever colour you chose.

Why here
What this location gives you
- The closest of the three to central Cairo, so it costs you a morning rather than a day.
- Low sun across open dunes is the light this product was invented for.
- Nothing in shot but landscape, which is what makes a bold colour read.
Getting there. Approximately 45 minutes from central Cairo, towards New Cairo.
The look
How it photographs
Expansive dunes, low-angle golden light, a saturated dress against neutral sand, and a lot of deliberate empty space.
Included at $179 per person
Everything in the price
Door-to-door transportation
Collected from your hotel or address and brought back afterwards. Nothing to arrange and nothing to find.
100+ colour-graded photographs
Not a handful of selects. More than a hundred edited frames from one session.
One flying dress, yours for the session
Rented from the collection for the shoot, in the colour you choose. Included in the price. Choosing one does not change what you pay.
An assistant for the dress
One person whose whole job is the fabric: holding the train, throwing it, keeping it out of the sand between frames.
A 30 to 45 minute photoshoot
Directed throughout. You do not need to know how to pose. That is the photographer's job and the dress does the rest.
Delivered in 6 to 10 days
Your edited gallery, within six to ten days of the shoot.
Your dress
12 colours, all included
Choose when you enquire. Every dress in the collection is included in the price, so the choice does not change what you pay. We note it as your preference and tell you before the day if it is unavailable.
There are also 5 traditional gawns for a partner in the frame.

Questions
About Sand Dunes
How far out of Cairo is it?
The brochure puts it at about forty-five minutes from central Cairo, heading towards New Cairo. Transport is door to door and included, so the drive is ours to manage rather than yours.
What time of day do you shoot?
Early, for the low sun. The exact start depends on the time of year and we confirm it with you when we confirm the date.
Payment and changes. Deposits are non-refundable, and can usually be moved to another date or held as credit rather than lost.
