Portraits In The Sand

Professional Portrait Photographer Serving Lewes

Welcome to Portraits In The Sand

David E. G. Koster CPP, M. Photog
Photographic Portrait Artist

Family beach portraits should be fun, not stressful. What usually happens is the kids won't cooperate, someone's always blinking, and nobody's sure if the lighting is right. Families end up with dozens of mediocre photos instead of that one perfect image they can hang on their wall. After 25 years of portrait photography work in Lewes and surrounding areas, Portraits In The Sand has learned exactly how to capture those genuine smiles and connections that make portraits worth keeping. 

How It Works


Book Your Session

Call 302-226-9226 or use the online system to schedule your outdoor family photoshoot in Lewes. Booking 2-3 months ahead works best for summer and holidays. During the consultation, we will discuss the best beach locations, ideal timing, and what to wear. Portraits In The Sand handles all permits and weather monitoring so that families can relax.

Choose Your Favorites

After the session, families visit the studio to review their portraits. Our Lewes portrait photographer shows how different images look as prints and wall art, making it easy to decide what works best. Families can order archival prints, digital files, or both.

Enjoy Your Memories

These portraits are built to last. Archival materials and professional printing keep images beautiful for decades. The Koster Family Guarantee covers product performance. If something goes wrong with your portraits, Portraits In The Sand replaces them for free.

Best Choice for Beach Portraits in Lewes


David Koster holds the Master Photographer and Certified Professional Photographer designations from the Professional Photographers of America. Only 2,500 photographers worldwide have the CPP certification. He's also accredited by Hearts & Lens for working with special needs families.
