The most in-depth

wedding FAQ ever made.

What are your prices?

Wedding photography packages start at €856 for elopements and from €1346 for full-day coverage. Want extras like wedding albums, wedding video, drone shots or prints? We’ll build a custom package that fits you. Nothing copy-paste, everything tailor-made based on your story.

I feel awkward in front of the camera. What do we do?

You’re not alone – most couples feel like that. The trick is forgetting the camera exists. I don’t pose or direct. I’m there to observe, not interrupt. This is documentary wedding photography, not theater. You'll be too busy enjoying your day to worry about how you look – and that’s when the magic happens.

Do we need a meeting?

Ideally yes. Whether in person or on Zoom, it helps us connect. Choosing your wedding photographer is a big deal. Let’s make sure we vibe before we commit to each other.

What happens at the meeting?

You’ll see full galleries from real weddings, hear how I work, and tell me what matters to you. We’ll build a plan around your day. Got questions about wedding video or delivery? Ask away.

Do you have standard packages or are they flexible?

I have a few sample packages to give you an idea, but nothing’s set in stone. We’ll adjust based on what you need – wedding albums, extended hours, video coverage, drone footage, the works.

Do you travel for weddings?

Absolutely. About 40% of the weddings I shoot are outside Thessaloniki or abroad. From islands to mountaintops to Europe – I go where the story takes me. I usually arrive 1–3 days early to get the vibe of the place.

Do you offer wedding albums?

Yes – from handcrafted fine-art albums to more affordable digital ones. All made with local labs I trust, with top materials and clean design. You’ll have something physical to hold your memories.

Do you charge for travel?

Up to 50km from Thessaloniki, no charge. For destinations further out, travel expenses are included in the proposal, no hidden fees.

How many photos will we get?

Between 450 and 600 final images, edited and in high resolution. I deliver the strongest, most emotional moments – not just thousands of clicks. Quality over quantity.

How do I order prints?

I’ll send you all the final photos with codes. Pick your favorites, tell me size and quantity, and I’ll handle the rest. For albums, you choose around 50–60 and I’ll turn them into a visual story.

When do we pay?

You pay a deposit when we sign the agreement, and the remaining amount on your wedding day.

How do we book you?

Just say “We’re in!” I’ll send the agreement, you send the deposit, and your date is officially locked. Wedding photographer secured.

How many weddings have you shot?

Over 500 weddings in the last 15+ years. Every couple, every place, every vibe – different. But I’m always fully present.

What’s your schedule on the wedding day?

I usually start 2–3 hours before the ceremony with the preparations and stay until the party’s truly started. If you want me to stay late or until dawn – we’ll plan it in.

How early should we book you?

As early as you can. Summer weekends book fast. Some couples book a year in advance, others a month before. If your date is still open, we go for it.

What’s your photography style?

Documentary, natural, raw. I don’t pose or stage moments. I capture what actually happens, as it happens. Real stories, real emotions – that’s what I care about.

Do I have to order an album or prints?

Nope. Everything is optional. If you want a wedding album or prints, I’ve got you. If you prefer digital files only – totally fine. You’re in control.

What do you wear at weddings?

I dress to blend in and move freely. Usually all black or dark tones. If it’s a beach wedding, I might wear shorts. If it’s fancy, I’ll be smart casual. I’m not there to be seen – I’m there to capture.

Do you use Photoshop?

Yes for color correction, contrast, crop. No for changing bodies or faces. If you’ve got a pimple or weird bruise you want gone – just tell me. Otherwise, I keep it real.

Why does wedding photography cost so much?

Because behind every wedding there are days of editing, preparation, backups, communication, equipment, and experience. You’re not just paying for a few hours of shooting – you’re investing in how you’ll remember this day forever.

What if you get sick?

I’ve got backup photographers with a similar style ready if anything goes wrong. And if for any reason that’s not okay with you, I’ll refund you.

Will you post our wedding photos online?

Only with your permission. I respect your privacy. You can say yes to sharing a few, or keep everything private. Totally your call.

Do you shoot wedding videos too?

I don’t do both at once – but I collaborate with amazing wedding videographers and filmmakers I trust. If you want a full wedding video, I’ll connect you with the right person.

So… who are you really?

I’m someone who used to work in art, animation, and documentaries – until I realized I love telling real stories, with real people. I’m not flashy. I’m not fake. I’m the wedding photographer who stays calm when the timeline explodes and still gets the shot.

What if it rains?

We go with it! Some of my favorite wedding photos happened in the rain. We’ll find cover or embrace the weather – either way, the story continues.

How long do you stay at the party?

At least 2 hours into the reception. If you want full coverage into the after-party, let’s plan it. I love staying late when the real fun starts.

Do I need a wedding planner?

Not required, but helpful. If you don’t have one, I’ll help you with timeline tips and structure based on what I’ve seen work in over 500 weddings. You’ll be in good hands.

Do you shoot family group photos?

Yes. We’ll make a short list of the must-have family photos to make sure no one is missed. Aunt Maria will thank us.

Can I give you a shot list?

For family groups – yes. For everything else – trust me to tell your story as it unfolds. I’d rather capture real moments than copy Pinterest ideas.

Will the photos have a watermark?

Never. You get full-resolution files, no logos, no restrictions.

How do we choose the right wedding photographer?

Look at their work. Talk with them. Make sure you vibe. Don’t choose based on price alone. This person will be close to you on a very personal day. Make sure you trust them.

What if we can’t afford a wedding photographer?

Let’s talk. Maybe we do a smaller package, or fewer hours. I believe everyone deserves to have their story documented. We’ll find a way.

What does a wedding photographer really cost?

Anywhere from €300 to €5000 depending on experience and coverage. Most pros charge between €1200–2500. If someone offers a full-day wedding for €300 – ask questions.

Do you shoot film?

Yes – if you want it. I use analog cameras for that nostalgic vibe. It’s slower and moodier, but some couples love the feel. I’m all for it.

Do you give the RAW files?

No. Like a chef doesn’t serve you raw ingredients, I deliver finished work – carefully edited and curated.

Do you back up our photos?

Yes, in multiple places. I keep backups for at least 4 years. If you lose your files – I’ve got your back.

Can guests take photos too?

Of course. Just ask them to avoid blocking me during key moments like the ceremony or portraits. You enjoy – I’ll document.

Do you shoot digital or film?

Mostly digital for speed and flexibility. But if you’re into analog, I can bring my film gear and mix it up.

Do you edit every photo?

Yes. Every single image goes through my hands. I don’t dump a preset and walk away. Each photo is finished with care.

How many weddings do you shoot per year?

15–20 tops. I want to be fully present, not burnt out. You deserve someone who’s excited about your day – not counting down the hours.

Where are you based?

Thessaloniki, Greece – but I shoot weddings anywhere. Cities, villages, islands, abroad. You choose the spot. I’ll be there.

Can you hold the date without a deposit?

Unfortunately not. To lock in your date, I need a signed agreement and deposit. Otherwise, someone else might book it.

Why are some photographers cheaper?

Maybe they’re just starting out, maybe they outsource editing, maybe they take dozens of weddings a month. Just make sure you know what you’re getting.

How can we save money on wedding photography?

Shorter coverage, weekday wedding, digital delivery only. Skip the album for now – add it later. There are ways.

Who’s the best wedding photographer in the world?

The one you’d love to sit next to at your own wedding dinner – and who’d capture it like no one else. Could be me.

What do we really need to get married?

Someone to marry, a few good friends – and a way to remember it all. Everything else is extra. But timeless photos? Always worth it.
