—Making people feel special about themselves is the biggest reward. We want our clients to feel like stars because they are stars. We just help them get it out of them.

—Τι σας αρέσει λιγότερο στο επάγγελμά σας;

—When you love what you do, it's not a job anymore. We love every minute of what we do.

—Πώς αντιμετωπίζετε την κριτική;

—Life is constantly about learning. We learn every day, whether it's from a personal or professional point of view. We welcome constructive criticism that will help us grow as a company and as human beings.

—Ποια πράγματα δεν επιτρέπονται σε καμία περίπτωση κατά τη φωτογράφηση;

—Anything goes, even though the crazy uncle with his iPad drives us crazy at times!

—Ποιο θα είναι το μέλλον της φωτογραφίας;

—I want to believe that wedding photographers are in a great position to lead and manage the whole wedding day in the near future. They need to have a solid grasp of every event that will occur on that day and plan accordingly.

—Τι το ιδιαίτερο υπάρχει στο φωτογραφικό είδος στο οποίο εξειδικεύεσαι;

—We are so fortunate to play a role in the union of two people that love each other and want to broadcast this to the world. We have the responsibility to capture these unique moments and offer them something they will cherish for the rest of their lives.

—Με ποια κριτήρια θα πρέπει ένας πελάτης να επιλέγει φωτογράφο;

—1) Do you like the photographer's work? 2) Do you like the photographer? Simple as that.

—Πώς ξεκίνησες να ασχολείσαι με τη φωτογραφία;

—In 2008, I was already doing amateur photography for a couple of year. To do something different for a change, I asked my uncle if I could photograph his wedding. It was his second marriage, they were not asking for a photographer, so there was little risk. I ended up liking it so much, that I decided to do it more.

—Έχετε φωτογένεια;

—No! I much rather be behind a camera.

—Ποια είναι τα πιο σημαντικά στοιχεία μιας καλής φωτογραφίας κατά τη γνώμη σας;

—Above all, the photo has to have a certain impact. Wether that's an intense emotion, a good vibe, or just a spectaculair visual impact. After that comes the technical part. So a good lighting, composition, etcetera. But for me, the impact is the most important part, by far.

—Σας αρέσει να ταξιδεύετε;

—Yes, but with moderation though. I'd love to do 3-5 destination weddings a year. I don't think I'd enjoy doing 10, 15 or even more.

—Τι σας αρέσει περισσότερο στο επάγγελμά σας;

—It sounds like a horrible cliché, but it's true: Every wedding is different. You never really know what's going to happen. Surprises can happen at every moment. Besides that, I think it's a great honor to be asked to create lifelong memories for the people that are getting married. 5, 10, 25 or even 50 years after they get married, people still remember who took their wedding photos. It's pretty wonderful that you can be an important part in people's lives.

—Τι σας αρέσει λιγότερο στο επάγγελμά σας;

—Basically: The postprocessing. I have a horrible concentration when it comes to editing. I love editing my 50-75 favorites from a wedding, but after that, it gets hard for me to keep focused.

—Πώς αντιμετωπίζετε την κριτική;

—I try to extract what people really mean with their comments. Some people have difficulties in finding the right words to give feedback, sometimes making them sound rude. But I always try to figure out what's the real message there.

—Ποια πράγματα δεν επιτρέπονται σε καμία περίπτωση κατά τη φωτογράφηση;

—'Allowed' is a big word. I'm not the one to say what's allowed or not. However, I don't like to unnecessarily intervene in a wedding. With the exception of the posed shots, I don't like having to tell people what to do, where to stand or how to look.

—Ποιο θα είναι το μέλλον της φωτογραφίας;

—I think the future of wedding photography will be a further evolution of the direction it's going in right now. More journalistic stuff, more moments. But besides that: technical advances. Faster camera's, better low light capabilities, and other accessories like drones, light field cameras, and stuff like that, giving photographers even more tools to being creative.

—Τι το ιδιαίτερο υπάρχει στο φωτογραφικό είδος στο οποίο εξειδικεύεσαι;

—I love many aspects of it. I love the fact that people are in a good mood, they take the time to look good as well. People get married in beautiful venues, and you as a photographer gets to be a part of so many people's special day. That's amazing.
