Wedding photographers in Greece

—What should future newlyweds pay attention to when looking for a wedding photographer?

—I like this question ! Pay attention this is very important !1. At least look for 3 full weddings of the photographer to see if you really like their work, not just their shiny portafolio .2. Theres a lot of excellent wedding photographers all over the world , So don´t search just in your area but everywhere until you find the one you feel a good vibe and you can pay. Save your money but don´t be stupid to loose the best wedding photographer for YOURSELF for a small amount of money . 3. References from other clients . 4. Don´t let photographers to pressure you as I said theres a plenty of very good photographers take your time to pick the one you will love but just make sure the photographer know why you are taking so long.

—Is there anything in your work that you don't like or even hate?

—Yes , I dont like when brides want to do exactly the same things than the other brides. When they are not creative. I wish each bride feel free to do her own wedding based on what she really want and try to make something different . I hate when clients ask for a quote , your reply and sometimes they don´t answer nothing like if you where a robot and not a human. Instead of telling you that they are not interested any more .

—What mistake in your professional experience you treat as the biggest one?

—Great photographs come from great connections and getting to know your photographer is key to getting great shots.
