The Luxury Portrait Studio at Your Event

You could call it that, but it’s better. We go beyond the typical photo booth by bringing a full professional studio to your event. With expert lighting, our signature white backdrop, a skilled photographer, and on-site retouching and printing, we create personalized portraits of the highest quality, ready to be displayed in your home.

Because we provide a premium, professional studio experience that automated kiosks simply can’t match. Cheaper options rely on basic setups and automated kiosks, resulting in generic and often disappointing photos. Black & White Portrait Co. offers a fully personalized service with skilled photographers and top-tier equipment: polished, posed portraits that capture the elegance of your day.

Yes. We bring enough supplies to ensure every guest has the opportunity to walk away with a portrait they love. Guests are welcome to visit the portrait station as many times as they’d like within our contracted hours: multiple looks, multiple moments. Our goal is a timeless keepsake for each guest, cherished long after the celebration ends.

Yes, the Bespoke Guestbook. Each guest writes you a message on an iPad right after their portrait, and afterward we pair every message with that guest’s photograph and bind the whole thing into a 10 × 10 layflat book, printed and shipped to you. Your guests still keep their own 8 × 10, so nobody gives anything up. It’s $1,500 as an add-on, and it’s included in our higher packages. See how the Bespoke Guestbook works.

We are based in Pennsylvania but happily travel for weddings and events both nationwide and internationally. Whether your celebration is local or a destination across the globe, we’re ready to bring our luxury portrait experience to you.

For weddings, the perfect time to start is right after the last speech, just before the dance floor opens, or during cocktail hour. For Premium Sessions, we can be available during both cocktail hour and post-dinner entertainment.

We require a non-refundable 50% deposit at the time of booking to secure your date. The remaining balance is due 14 days before your event.

Our full studio (backdrop, lighting, and print station) fits comfortably within roughly a 10′ × 15′ footprint. We’re happy to coordinate placement directly with your venue or planner so it complements the room.

A standard power outlet within reach of our setup and a level surface. We bring everything else: lighting, backdrop, printers, and the expertise to run it all seamlessly.

We arrive well before our contracted start time and are fully built, tested, and styled before your first guest steps in front of the backdrop. Breakdown is equally discreet. You won’t notice us until it’s time for a portrait.

Yes, with cover from the weather and access to power, our studio travels beautifully outdoors. Some of our favorite portraits have been made under tents and on terraces.
