Summer Destination - Wedding on Folegandros
Some weddings leave an imprint that lingers long after the day is over—and Amy and Nicolas’ destination wedding in Folegandros was one of them. From the beginning, they made a special request: no posing, no staged moments—just real, authentic storytelling through photography. A mix of digital and film photography.
Amy and Nicolas’ vision was simple: to let the day unfold naturally. Every moment—walking through the cobblestone alleys of Chora, exchanging vows overlooking the sea, celebrating with friends and family—was captured just as it happened. No stiff portraits, no staged smiles. Instead, the photographs reflect the joy, the quiet glances, and the heartfelt connections of a wedding lived fully in the moment.
Why Folegandros is a Hidden Gem for Weddings
Folegandros is one of the most untouched Greek islands, perfect for couples who dream of a wedding away from the crowds. With its dramatic cliffs, golden Aegean light, and the charm of its whitewashed Chora, the island offers an atmosphere that feels both intimate and timeless. Unlike the more popular Cycladic islands such as Santorini or Mykonos, Folegandros has kept its authentic character, making it ideal for couples seeking a meaningful and relaxed celebration.
As a documentary wedding photographer, my goal is always to tell the real story of a couple’s day. On Folegandros, that meant blending into the rhythm of the island and letting Amy and Nicolas simply be themselves. The result? A gallery filled with raw emotions, natural beauty, and memories that feel true to who they are.
If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding on Folegandros, or anywhere in the Greek islands, and value photography that tells your story naturally, this magical island might just be the perfect place to begin your journey together.
