Valerie & George’s wedding in Brittany, France

18 Jun 2019

Valerie and George are a stylish Parisian couple who decided to escape the heat of the capital for their wedding, escaping to the laid-back beaches of Brittany. With friends and family coming from around Europe for the big day, they wanted a place where everyone could stay and enjoy catching up over several days, so they booked the Les Iles campsite in Penestin for the celebrations.

The couple were very happy campers as they dressed in their finery to exchange vows at the Mairie (Town Hall) in front of their loved ones. See more…

Wedding at Great Fosters, Surrey | Natalie & James

12 Jun 2019

We were delighted when this lovely couple asked us to record their Wedding at Great Fosters, Surrey. Any bride and groom can tell you that one of the most challenging aspects of planning a wedding is making both families happy. As much as it is “their” day, a marriage also represents the joining together of two families, and it is important to incorporate appropriate customs to respect both the bride’s and the groom’s backgrounds, as Natalie and James did when they wed in Kingston-Upon-Thames.

Natalie’s family is British-Greek Cypriot and James’ is British, and their special day was very much a fusion of each heritage. The service took place at St George Greek church in Kingston-Upon-Thames. The early summer weather was the sort to make my heart sing, with just a few fluffy white clouds punctuating the azure blue skies.

Natalie was a natural in front of the camera and she and her three bridesmaids made the most of their time together as they got ready for the ceremony. See more…

Wedding videography at Sopwell House

25 Apr 2019

Hers is Alex and Andriana’s image gallery and wedding videography at Sopwell House. The couple chose the beautiful and rural Twelve Apostles Church for their traditional Cypriot ceremony before celebrating with their guests a few miles away at the luxurious Sopwell House. The entire event went like clockwork, giving us the sort of day we dream of.

The 12 Apostles Church is a favourite with Cypriot brides and grooms who want a classic English country wedding. The former Anglican church sits peacefully in its parkland setting, looking as if part of the set for a film like Four Weddings and a Funeral. The exterior may be English, but the interior is See more…

Styling in Santorini Island

14 Apr 2019

That beautiful island of is close to my heart so I was excited to do this work showcasing wedding style and bridal fashion. When we snap weddings in the Greek Islands, or anywhere else, the focus is always the newlyweds. The clothing, accessories and setting are all chosen to make the bride and groom stand out – they are, understandably, the stars of the show. With styled images, however, the focus is less on the people and more on the clothing and the location. We create aspirational pictures that fuel the imagination of a bride and groom, showing them how their wedding could look. See more…

Photography of a Wedding at St Albans Register Office

14 Apr 2019

There was much to delight my photographic eye when Katerina and David married as they asked me to provide their wedding photography at St Albans Register Office. The couple exchanged vows in front of family and friends in a wedding at the Register Office, and the ceremony was both intimate and beautiful. Katerina was a picture-perfect bride in her retro-style 1950s wedding dress with David, in his stylish blue suit, acting as the perfect foil to her ethereal beauty. See more…

A Wedding in Cyclades

09 Oct 2018

On the Cycladic islands of Paros in the heart of the Aegean, the love of two people, for the sea, for life, was consummated with a truly original wedding. I was there to portray their precious moments and tell their inimitable story.

It was not a surprise that a day before we seemed to have ‘lost’ the groom who had gone for a ‘catch up’ with the Aegean Sea before the big day. D. and C.’s love affair with the Greek Islands had begun several years earlier when they went for a holiday and got hooked with kitesurfing.

Bobbie & Dimitri | Orsett Hall Essex

12 Jul 2018

Dimitri and Bobbie chose to celebrate their wedding at Orsett Hall when they tied the knot. Both from Cypriot Greek families, the couple incorporated many recognisable traditions into their big day which started with the Stolisma at their respective family homes. As the bride and groom to be were getting ready at the same time, we used two teams covering their preparations.

The wedding was at St John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church in North London. There are around two dozen Greek Orthodox churches in the capital, with this being one of the largest communities. The ceremony was beautiful, See more…

Island Residence in Varkiza, Athens – (updated) – Travelling just a few kilometres outside of Athens one can encounter this immensely beautiful location; Island Residence in Varkiza. An idyllic setting where the sun never fails to shine. Pavlina and Nikos chose to have a dual celebration of their son’s christening and their wedding on the same day.

Mykonos | Hara & “Pierros” Manousos

04 Jul 2018

With the help of a beautiful sun, Manousos and Hara had managed to tell their own story both together as one and each on their own – and its speaks for itself! Capturing the true aura of the couple, as well as the magnificent island scenery surrounding them, it’s hard not to fall in love with this island. It’s authentic Greek blue and white architecture and distinct Cycladic island layout, crystal clear water, peerless beaches, narrow graphic alleys, picturesque windmills, and unique fun venues not found anywhere else, all synthesise an imperceptible atmosphere that is hard to resist. Especially for young couples like Hara and Manousos, who have the bursting energy of youth and flaming romance within their spirits.

Jialin & Qingrong’s Session

20 Jun 2018

The city of London is bursting with fantastic sights, iconic landmarks, and oodles of character. It’s no wonder that visitors from around the world make a special effort to have pictures from there. Jialin and Qingrong are one of a growing number of couples from China and the US having their pre-wedding images in this great city. Nothing could dim this young couple’s enthusiasm, not even the rain which was present for most of the shoot. They were just so happy to be together that their excitement shines through in every image. See more…

The Hassan’s Engagement

07 Jun 2018

Despite this being the age of the selfie, it is normal for couples to feel an initial sense of awkwardness when it comes to their engagement images. Most of our couple’s consultations begin with me asking questions to help them decide on the perfect setting/s for their engagement gallery. Not so with Funda and Serhan! The beautiful and talented drama teacher and her handsome fiancé had very clear ideas about See more…

Maria & Tim’s Wedding

26 May 2018

Being a local professional means that SH is a venue with which we are very familiar. The 4-Star country house hotel is a wonderful venue for all kinds of celebrations, with a Sopwell House wedding always being a memorable occasion. It is a highly picturesque venue with 12 acres of grounds outside and many decorative features within. While guests were tucking into their welcome drinks and canapes captured by our second team, our main team made the most of the romantic gardens for the post-ceremony portraits with just the bride and groom, as well as some group shots with their wedding party. The groomsmen certainly got into the spirit, as you can see! See more…

Maria & Akis | A “Day After” in Santorini

17 Apr 2018

Even though they live abroad but married in their homeland Macedonia Greece, Maria and Akis wanted a session in Santorini island. Since I often work in Cyclades, I know the islands exceptionally well and was able to help them choose locations based on the sort of shots they wanted. Cyclades is a beautiful complex of 33 islands in Aegean Sea. Many popular islands are a part of it such as Santorini, los, Paros and Mykonos. See more…

Anglican Christening at St Brides London 05

An Anglican Baptism at St Brides Church, London

15 Apr 2018

Jasper Abraham, was an absolute delight to capture on his Anglican baptism day at one of our favourite locations – the beautiful St Bride’s church in the heart of London’s City.

Little Jasper was an incredibly sweet boy, who we met asleep on his arrival. Having to be woken, he was all smiles as soon as awake and realising all the special people in his life surrounding him. It was magical to take pictures of these moments and the relationships he had with both his parents and siblings. Also with all the others that had come for his special day, including his grandparents and godparents.

Shot from a wedding at Chelsea Town Hall

Wedding of Caroline & Gareth in Chelsea

03 Apr 2018

It was such a wonderful experience for myself to be able to capture, and moreover be present at Caroline’s Chelsea wedding, as she married her husband Gareth.

I loved capturing the moments of her first walking down the street towards me, arriving with Gareth and their two witnesses at the offices. All smiles of course! Then the special moments from the process of the booking, through to the ceremony itself. It was lovely to capture the expressions of their witnesses too. Plus of course the ceremony end. Choosing the smaller registry room for their service, the wedding ceremony was animated and light hearted, which was well suited to both Caroline and Gareth and their relationship with each other, as well as their strong friendships with their fun loving friends Sarah and Barry.

As Caroline had chosen to do things the other way around and get legally married, after their symbolic wedding, this was a bit of fun for them and you could tell that they thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience of wedding at Chelsea Town Hall. See more…

Korina & Juan | A Wedding in Halkidiki

24 Mar 2018

I was delighted when Korina and Juan asked me to cover their wedding in Halkidiki. Let me first paint a backdrop of calm sea, bright blue sky and glorious rays of sunshine. This is the beautiful setting of Halkidiki, Greece that was the unobtrusive witness to a weekend celebration. A true Mediterranean marriage of Spanish and Greek family tradition and culture, allow me to introduce Korina and Juan!

Now joined together in marital harmony, Korina, originally from Greece and Juan from Spain, celebrated their beautiful wedding in Halkidiki. Living in central London but with their hearts belonging not just to each other but also to the culture and laid back lifestyle of the Mediterranean cost, it was only natural that they head to Korina’s beloved home-country to say and celebrate their much awaited ‘I do’s’.

Tery & Billy in Mykonos

07 Feb 2018

Lying in the Mediterranean in the heart of Aegean Sea, Mykonos is one of the smallest and sunniest of the Greek islands, enjoying more than 300 days of sunshine a year.

Traditional whitewashed houses of Chora welcome visitors with their colourful doors, and it is a pleasure to get lost walking along ancient streets which twist and turn, offering a fantastic view or an unforgettable cafe around nearly every corner. The white buildings are the perfect foil for the azure sky, and a wonderful backdrop for tumbling bougainvillea flowers in vivid pinks and purples.

Alexandros’ Greek Christening in Bayswater London

30 Jan 2018

The setting for Alexandros’ christening was St Sophia’s orthodox cathedral in Bayswater, London. We are grateful to have worked in several orthodox christenings and weddings here, yet we are always struck anew by its peaceful atmosphere. You don’t have to be religious to appreciate its beauty, light, and perfect proportions.

Since its consecration in 1882 St Sophia’s cathedral has been the beating heart of the Greek orthodox community in London. While the domed roof suggests something special from outside, See more…

Chandni & Pinal’s Session in Wales

01 Jan 2018

A pre-wedding session is not only about having beautiful pictures to share with family and display at the wedding, it is also a way for a couple to show the world how they see themselves as a couple and to confidently launch themselves into the arena of nearly-newlyweds. Of course, weddings are about the bride and groom, but they are also about traditions and families. A couple’s session, however, is only about the couple, and they are great fun for everyone involved. See more…

ECE Wedding Cakes | Opulencia

Orthodox Bar Mitzvah | Pardes House School in Finchley London

25 May 2017

The youthful energy of the guests at a bar or bat mitzvah is always a lot of fun, and it is enjoyable watching families celebrate together, sharing loving bonds in a tradition that is thousands of years old.

We started the day with some individual shots of Osher, who looked endearingly proud if slightly self-conscious in his suit and hat, showing signs of the man he will become. He is the oldest boy in a family with seven children, and we took the opportunity to do individual pictures of all the siblings. It is always lovely to have images of children at different stages of their lives – not only at a handful of milestone events – and something parents and grandparents appreciate enormously.

Whatever the event, we always look for those candid moments, the unscripted shots which capture the emotion of the day and show subjects at their most natural. A special thank you to Osher’s mother for allowing us to play a role in this momentous occasion. They made us feel extremely welcome, and we enjoyed our experience of the day. Mazel tov!

Gina & Graham | St Albans Cathedral

12 Jan 2017

I love the sense of drama that the holiday season adds to a wedding. These special days are beautiful in their own right, but when you add the colours and sparkle of Christmas together with a magnificent setting it makes it a great pleasure. Gina had her heart set on marrying in St Albans Cathedral and Abbey and was happy to wait for a date to become available. This cathedral holds particular significance for christians as it is where Britain’s first saint, Alban, is buried. Despite its size, the abbey is a warm and welcoming space, holding not only Church of England services, but also Catholic, Russian Orthodox and Lutheran ones. Gina and Graham could not have made a better choice for their big day. See more…

Christening at Brompton Oratory, Knightsbridge

14 May 2016

You may think that weddings are virtually the same as christening images and videos. While it is true that the events are similar in many ways – the setting, the families, the familiar ceremony, christenings have a different feel altogether as the parents are typically more relaxed than a bride and groom, and that makes a world of difference to a professional.
