Besides shooting weddings, I also photograph for commercial picture agencies such as Getty Images and many other editorial articles in magazines and books. Children Photography is also a big part of my life and as I have three little ones of my own. Children interaction with the bridal party is often a recurring subject on my wedding pictures.

From the first day you gave me the chance to join WPJA I felt I found my
soul mates in photography. The spontaneity, emotions and truth reflected in
the photographs of WPJA members gave me joy because since then I could
rarely see wedding photographs of such honesty. I feel privileged I joined
the community you founded and I thank you for that. Before even knowing the
existence of WPJA (you see I live some thousands kilometers away from you!),
whenever I shared my point of view on wedding photography with some
professional wedding photographers in Greece, I received their contempt.
They regarded wedding photography as a boring job which could offer nothing
to the photographer except money. On the other hand, fine art photographers
could never believe that wedding photography could have artistic virtues.
But WPJA proved that there are some wedding photographers out there who
enjoy capturing the happy moments of couples, who are passionate with
photography, who have artistic values and last but not least offer quality
services to their clients.
The community you founded gives joy to both photographers and couples
to be married. You should be happy for that! Please, have in mind that I am
on your side.
If you choose one of our WPJA Greece wedding photojournalists
as your wedding photographer, please let them know you found
them through the Wedding Photojournalist Association.
