About Lucky Elevens by Sandra Orrego
Lucky Elevens by Sandra Orrego
I'm Sandra Orrego, the photographer behind Lucky Elevens. Based in Madrid, Spain, I split my time between Europe and the United States, and I'm passionate about creating editorial-style wedding photography that blends fashion inspiration with real, candid emotion. I love capturing the unique energy of each couple — the in-between moments, the joy, and all the iconic details that tell your authentic story. Whether it's an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, my goal is to document your day with artistry, sensitivity and a modern, timeless aesthetic you'll cherish for a lifetime. I'm fully available to travel anywhere for your wedding.
What sets me apart is my unique ability to combine high-fashion editorial aesthetics with genuine, documentary storytelling. My images feel both polished and deeply emotional — A lot of them are staged, but they always feel real. Having photographed weddings across Spain, Europe, and beyond, I bring an international perspective and an open minded presence on your wedding day. I focus on creating an experience for you while delivering beautiful, cinematic photographs that stand out from traditional wedding photography.

The best decision we made for our wedding
We were so lucky to have Sandra as our wedding photographer. Seeing her in action on the big day was incredible. She has this really special way of being there — she connects with people right from the first moment, quickly makes everyone feel comfortable, gets them laughing and relaxed… and you can see all of that so clearly in the photos. Her energy is super contagious; it lifts the whole atmosphere and makes everything flow naturally so people can just let go. It’s impossible not to get caught up in her enthusiasm. But what impressed me the most is how she becomes almost invisible during the most emotional and important moments. That’s when you realise how much she’s actually observing and how sensitive she is. She never interrupts or gets in the way — she’s simply there. And yet she captures everything: every gesture, every glance, every moment that really matters. And she does it all on her own. I honestly thought we might need a second photographer so we wouldn’t miss any details, but once I saw the final photos I realised that wasn’t necessary at all. She doesn’t miss a thing, and the way she moves around with such natural flow and control feels almost magical. She has an amazing eye, perfect instinct, and total mastery of her craft. She’s one of those people who make you wonder how she does it. I’m really grateful. Having her there was one of the best decisions we made. She was already my friend, but during the wedding she became so much more — my ally, my constant support, the person you want right by your side on a day like that. She knew exactly how to be present without overwhelming us or taking the spotlight, but with a presence that feels steady, calming and strong all at once. She gave us beautiful, precious memories and that lovely feeling of knowing we were in the very best hands. Thank you, Sandra.

Small Civil Wedding Into Something Incredible
My husband and I got married in a simple civil ceremony at the courthouse. We were not planning a big celebration, but we still wanted to capture the moment in a beautiful and meaningful way. Choosing Sandra was honestly the best decision we could have made. She has such a unique eye and a way of seeing things that turns even the simplest moments into something special. The photos are incredible and speak for themselves, full of emotion, style and personality. She made the whole experience feel easy, natural and exciting, and the result was beyond anything we imagined. If this is what Sandra can create for a small civil wedding, I can only imagine the magic she would do with a bigger celebration. Looking at our photos now almost makes me want to do it all over again, just to have her photograph it.

More Than a Photographer
Going into wedding planning, I knew choosing our photographer would be one of the most important decisions we’d make, and it truly was. Your photographer is arguably the person you spend the most time with on your wedding day, so finding the right fit matters so much. When our wedding planner introduced us to Lucky Elevens, her work immediately stood out. The photos felt effortless, emotional, authentic and completely Pinterest-worthy. But what truly sealed the deal was Sandra herself. From our very first video call, it felt like we had known each other forever. Her warmth, combined with her incredible talent, made the decision so easy. If you’re looking for a photographer who is passionate, kind, talented, and genuinely cares, Sandra is your person. Throughout the planning process, she was incredibly helpful sharing inspiration, offering guidance, and always having a clear creative vision. On the wedding day, she was everything I could have hoped for and more. As a bride, emotions run high, and your photos mean everything. Sandra made me feel beautiful, confident, and completely at ease. She wasn’t just our photographer, she felt like a friend and the ultimate hype woman. We had so much fun together, and that joy truly comes through in every photo. I still don’t understand how she managed to capture every single moment and detail so perfectly - especially as our sole photographer. She didn’t miss a thing. I truly can’t express how grateful I am for these photos. They turned out even better than my Pinterest dreams, and they allow us to relive our day over and over again. Thank you endlessly to Sandra for capturing our wedding day so beautifully, it’s something we’ll hold onto for the rest of our lives.
