A dramatic and historic setting for your most important celebration.
1. Tell us about One Fine Day Photographers and the inspiration behind the company:

Its original owners – Howard Gould, and later Daniel and Florence Guggenheim – hosted events that impressed the international, high-society world in which they lived. Today, these exquisite mansions and expansive grounds are available for extraordinary private and corporate events. Historic Hempstead House, Castle Gould, and the magnificent grounds of the Sands Point Preserve are unique and stunning backdrops for events of all types.
