About

I’m Apostolis — a wedding and destination photographer based in Athens, Greece.
Before documenting love stories, I spent years as a photojournalist, capturing human moments in some of the world’s most emotional and unpredictable places. That experience shaped the way I see everything today — it taught me that the power of a photograph lies in emotion.

Now, after more than two decades behind the lens, my approach remains the same: to tell stories that feel real. I seek the unguarded moments — the quiet touch, the laughter, the in-between glances that reveal who you truly are. My work blends emotion, movement, and light to create images that feel cinematic yet deeply personal.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing hundreds of weddings across Greece and beyond. Whether it’s the raw beauty of a Cretan sunset or the timeless charm of an Italian villa, my goal is always to document your day with honesty and soul — to make you feel something every time you look back.

Above all, I value connection. I want my couples to see me not only as their photographer but as a friend — someone who will make them feel comfortable, present, and free to live their day to the fullest.

A few things about me:

  1. I’m a lifelong film lover — The Shawshank Redemption will always be my masterpiece.

  2. My vinyls are always spinning while I edit — music helps me relive every wedding I capture.

  3. I’m obsessed with natural light and open spaces — expect portraits that breathe, framed by the warmth and beauty of the Greek landscape.

Photography that lets you relive every emotion

No words can truly express how satisfied we are with Apostolos' work. No matter how many times we thank him, it will never feel like enough. From the very first moment we met online, we felt an immediate connection, and he understood exactly how we imagined our wedding day.

Throughout the planning process, he was always responsive and supportive whenever we needed his advice. On the wedding day itself, he and his colleague made us feel completely comfortable and relaxed—never stressed, always at ease.

The images we received tell the entire story of our day, capturing every emotion and spontaneous moment. Looking through the photos, we relived each memory, felt deeply moved, and experienced the joy of that unique day all over again. And to us, that says everything about Apostolos’ exceptional work.

EXCELLENT wedding photographer!

My husband and I booked Apostolis for our October 2024 wedding and we couldn't be happier! He was professional, kind and took such STUNNING pictures! We had great portrait and detail shots and he completely understood everything we wanted. He also gave great direction (which I was very thankful for since I'm definitely not a natural in front of the camera.) All our guests spoke so highly of him and his team as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

The greatest photographer we could ever get

We loved our collaboration with Apostolis for our big day. Apostolis is not just a great wedding photographer, but a wonderful human too. Gives out plenty of positive vibes and inspires trust that the result will be outstanding. It really was. Our guests still say that the photos are some of the best they've seen in weddings and we agree 100%! He captured many precious moments of that day that will help our memories last a lifetime. What we also appreciated is how he treated us with respect and top notch professionalism, making us feel pampered and not just one more couple getting married. Apostolis was one of our best wedding choices and we recommend him 100%

Amazing professional and person, highly recommend!

Apostolis is an exceptional professional! He has been extremely supportive throughout the wedding preparation and during the bid day, he and his team were amazing, full of ideas and great inspiration, making us feel extremely comfortable and at the same time have fun, while capture every moment and create great memories for us! Apostolis also recommended a first look photoshoot, and thanks to that not only we have great photos and memories at a unique location but also a more intimate moment just the couple, before seeing our guests. The pictures have all been gorgeous, we have been having difficulty to pick our favorite ones! Apostolis also covered our kid’s christening. He has been extremely supportive there too, with amazing photos before, during and after the baptism, creating unforgettable memories with our little one. I would definitely call him again on anything we may need. What a great experience all has been thanks to him!

I could not have asked for a better photographer.
Such a wonderful person with a great energy. Made us very comfortable on our pre-wedding, ceremony and wedding photos.
His communication is great and my husband, our guests and I were delighted with the photos.
I highly recommend his service and I guarantee you won't regret.

Excellent professional - Highly recommended

Apostolis is an excellent professional photographer and very warm person. He made us feel relaxed and we enjoyed our happiest moments, which he managed to capture in a unique way. Thanks to him, these memories will stay with us forever. Congratulations to him and his team, Antigoni and Sophia, for organising everything in great detail, leading to an impeccable outcome.

Apostolis and his crew made our day truly magical!

During our wedding planning, the thing we found the hardest was choosing a photographer. But from the very beginning of our initial phone call with Apostolis, he was very warm, engaging and friendly with a bubbly attitude, with the ability to capture special moments so beautifully and candidly. We knew we finally found the person we trusted to capture our most special day.

He was very easy to reach whenever we had questions or wanted to have a call, he was so quick at responding, and was so efficient and organised with all relevant paperwork.

On the big day, both me and my husband agree that the Apostolis and his colleagues were incredible, so fun and easy to work with and took all the shots we had discussed in the way that we wanted them. They helped keep us calm and kept reminding us to savour and enjoy each moment.

The day we received our photos was the cherry on top of such a wonderful experience; our photos were magical and the editing fit perfectly with our wedding theme. We could not recommend the team enough.

Best Photographer in Greece

It’s been almost 3 years since we first spoke with Apostolis and still very distinctly remember how personable and warm he was! Our first call was literally at opposite sides of the world (Seattle/Greece) and the connection was immediate. Apostolis made a trip to London right before the pandemic broke and we had the time of our lives during our engagement photoshoot in the city of our hearts, London. Time passed by and many things happened including us moving back to Greece almost after a decade abroad. We finally had our wedding where we had the privilege and honor to have Apostolis and his team to be again with us! How incredible were those 3 days, and Apostolis and his team were there, every step of the way, to capture all important moments and feelings!

The entire team was super warm, fun, insightful and incredibly generous with their time and energy. Their work, approach and outcome boast attention to detail, real care and interest in their clients’ special moments and show how much pride they have in their work! Due to their hard and thoughtful work we will always have these unique moments captured and eternilized in time - we will get to relive our wedding from so many different perspectives, feeling again the fun and love of our family and closest friends.

Totally recommended!!

Before our wedding I was bit worried because I did not know what to expect from photographers. With Apostolis our fears vanished and only the best memories stayed; memories of a perfect wedding and of a true professional who is also a great man. He facilitated a lot the pre-wedding, crossing many many kilometres, and the day of our wedding not only did he take amazing pictures but he also respected our personal moments. He was always ready and willing to help and his presence created a sense of tranquillity. The post-wedding shooting was amazing since Apostolis made everything possible to adapt to our schedule and his willingness had not got reduced a bit; he was the same smiling person and the photos he presented us were wonderful. Thank you Apostolis!!
