Private Pyramids
Photoshoot
An exclusive, cinematic photoshoot at the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx with a private photographer and Egyptologist guide. Sunrise or sunset timing, 150–300 edited photos delivered in 48 hours.
What You'll Experience
This is not a standard tour. It is a curated editorial photoshoot designed to capture you against the most iconic backdrop on earth — the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Great Sphinx.
You will be paired with a professional photographer who knows the plateau's hidden angles and a certified Egyptologist guide who will bring the 4,500-year-old history to life between frames.

- Private & Exclusive: no crowds, no waiting. Just you, your group, and the Pyramids.
- Expert Guidance: your photographer directs posing and expression; your Egyptologist shares the stories of Khufu, Khafre and the Sphinx.

Frequently asked questions
What time is best for a Pyramids photoshoot?
Sunrise and the hour before sunset provide the best light. We schedule shoots at gate opening (8am) or late afternoon for warm, dramatic light and fewer crowds.
How many photos will I receive?
You will receive 150–300 fully retouched, high-resolution images delivered within 48 hours via a private online gallery.
Is a permit required for the photoshoot?
Personal photoshoots with handheld cameras require only the standard plateau ticket. We handle all necessary permits and site rules for you before the shoot.
Can you photograph families with children?
Absolutely. We adapt the pace for children, bring kid-friendly props, and time the shoot to avoid the midday heat. The Pyramids are a magical backdrop for family portraits.
Do you photograph couples and honeymooners?
Yes — the Pyramids at golden hour are one of the most romantic backdrops in the world. Many of our clients book us specifically for engagement, honeymoon and anniversary shoots.
