THE ARCHIVE: FILM & DIGITAL STORIES

A curated collection of weddings and intimate elopements across Greece. Each gallery is a singular narrative, documented through my lens to capture not just the events, but the genuine emotion, the deep connections, and the raw beauty of the Mediterranean.

From the sun-drenched shores of Naxos to the rugged, wild charm of Folegandros; from the serene, minimalist landscapes of Sifnos to the relaxed, quiet elegance of Antiparos and Patmos; and onwards to the timeless, golden allure of Rhodes.

Each island provides its own unique light—and every film frame tells its own unique story.

Main Wedding Photography FAQs

Artistic Style & Philosophy

  • Style: My work is described as a "dialogue between documentary honesty and fine-art composition." I act as a "silent witness" to capture unscripted moments rather than directing forced poses.

  • Documentary Photography: This means the wedding is treated as a celebration rather than a photo shoot, focusing on "in-between" moments, nervous glances, and spontaneous laughter.

  • Solo Shooting: I work as a solo shooter to maintain a consistent artistic vision and provide a discreet presence that doesn't disrupt the atmosphere. Most couples hardly notice the camera is there.

  • Digital vs. Film: Approximately 80-90% of the day is shot on digital for precision, while the remaining 10-20% is shot on 35mm analogue film for a nostalgic, timeless feel.
