it is not about me

It's all about you!


The protagonist in my story is you, not me.

In fact, I am just a medium through which your dreams, desires and personal taste are realised.


Although I have a well-developed style of photography, I am always open to discussing and adopting new ideas that help me understand your personality more and develop a style that will portray it perfectly.


To put it shortly, I can openly say that I adapt my refined techniques to my client's taste, as this is the only way I can be sure to seize all the genuine feelings and unique moments that make your special event memorable.



""It is more important to click with people than to click the shutter.""

Q&A

What is your Photographic Style?

As a photographer, it can be challenging to define your style and put it into words. For me, I quickly realized that trying to fit into one specific category was impossible. Instead, I take inspiration from various styles and elements that I love, and I use these to create my own unique photographic style. At the heart of my approach is a focus on capturing emotions and reactions, and I am always on the lookout for opportunities to take portraits in beautiful, natural light. It's a simple approach that allows me to create beautiful images that are true to the moment and that will stand the test of time.

What is your favorite wedding moment?

The moment when a couple meets for the first time is truly special. There's an undeniable magic in the air as they lock eyes and realize the significance of the day they've been dreaming about for so long. It's a moment that's been meticulously planned, yet somehow still manages to feel spontaneous and unpredictable. Whether it happens during the first look or later during the ceremony, the reactions of the couple's friends and family only add to the emotion of the moment. As a photographer, it's an honor to be able to capture such a raw and authentic expression of love and joy.

What is your favorite wedding memory?

One of my favorite memories was from a destination wedding in Serifos Island, Greece. After an amazing beach party I had the opportunity to see the sunrise with the couple and their closest friends. It was a beautiful moment that left me feeling grateful for my job and inspired for the creative future ahead in the wedding industry. It's moments like these that remind me why I love being a wedding photographer and how privileged I am to be a part of such special occasions.

Bold and colorful or minimal and refined?

As a wedding photographer, my focus is always on capturing the best possible version of every element in my frame, whether that means embracing bold and colorful decorations or keeping things minimal and refined. I don't have any particular preference when it comes to decoration, as my goal is always to showcase each element in the most beautiful way possible. Sometimes, a simple and refined approach can be the most effective, while other times, a more bold and colorful approach may be the perfect choice. Ultimately, it all comes down to what I have in front of me and how I can use my skills as a photographer to showcase it in the most stunning way possible.

Film or Digital?

While digital is so far my preferred format for professional work, there will always be a place in my heart for the timeless beauty of film photography. Especially when it comes to personal projects or for entertainment purposes, I can't help but have a soft spot for film.

What should I do in order to enjoy my wedding photos the most?

Share your vision with me! Let me know what is most important to you and what you want to remember the most from your big day. This will help me to capture the moments and details that matter most to you. On the day of the wedding, don't be afraid to express your emotions and be yourself in front of the camera.

From my heart, I want to assure you that I will go above and beyond to make you feel relaxed and at ease during your photo session. My aim is not just to capture beautiful and timeless photos, but to ensure that you enjoy the whole process and feel comfortable throughout.

What do you do in your free time?

I enjoy socializing by going out for dinner or drinks... I take photos with film....I like watching TV Series and cooking... Lately, I've started exercising a few times a week and hope to continue! I also travel A LOT! It's a great way to experience new things. I can visit new museums, try different foods, and discover new artists that I may not have known about before.
