    Beautiful memories

    We planned our wedding to be on Mykonos during one of our port days on board a Royal Caribbean cruise. We found Magdalene on wedding wire and she was the exact person we needed! She recommended a wedding planner and they worked beautifully together. Her pictures capture the personalities of everyone in them. The fact you don’t need to focus on posing and forcing smiles makes it easy to take in the beauty around you and all the small details to remember later after the day has passed. I couldn’t recommend a more talented photographer with a beautiful and gentle soul!

    One of a kind ♥️

    We had an amazing experience with Magdalene!
    We received the photos of our wedding shortly after the ceremony and her work honestly exceeded our expectations! Her ‚eye‘ offered us the most captivating photos which make us live the day again and again!
    Apart from the outstanding job she does, she is also a beautiful person. A sweet, discrete and calm presence.
    We are completely impressed by her aura and professionalism, she is second to none. We highly recommend her!

    Magdalene, you have a place in our hearts!
    Thank you,
    Alexandra, Max, Ilias

    The most incredible photographer and person!

    Magdalene was honestly one of the best things about our beautiful wedding in Lindos, Greece.
    We were incredibly overwhelmed and so so happy with our choice in photographer, she treated us with such kindness and was so relaxed and happy on the day and totally put us at ease.
    She even drove us to St Pauls Bay in our car for extra photos, which are actually our favourite of all of them!!!

    The photos are so much more amazing than I even thought they would be! I gave her a few inspo pictures before the wedding and she has captured everything we wanted. We can't recommend Magdalene enough if you want a truly lovely soul on your wedding day giving you lovely words of encouragement.

    Magdalene Kourti photography's reply:

    Thank you so much for sharing such a special day with me!! You are such a beautiful couple! I feel grateful!!

    Our Money Best Spent

    As a bride in the US, wedding planning abroad was intimidating. I had great help from my planner Rosina (at Dreams in Style) which helped a ton but I knew I'd be super picky when it came to a photographer. Most US-based photographers have a really specific shooting and editing style that I don't like. I wanted more candid, genuine moments as opposed to posed. More natural, vibrant color than overly orange. More authentic capture of the night than crazy, over-exposed light lines (that look really trippy lol). The moment I saw Magdalene's website and portfolio I knew she was the one. Her photos are beautiful, natural, and raw. They capture a whole story as opposed to random shots throughout the day that just check a box. She was such a calming presence on the day-of and I was immediately comfortable with her. My husband getting ready in a different room was initially resistant to having a photographer snap any pics of him getting ready with his groomsmen but later told me "It was fine! I barely noticed she was there and I'm so happy we got those photos" (and for her to feel 'not there' in a very small hotel room is an accomplishment! haha). What I really loved about Magdalene was that she was extremely flexible and go-with-the-flow. She did not come to my wedding with a pre-conceived idea of how she wanted me to stand and where- you could see the inspiration coming to her throughout the day and quickly acting on what looked good. It felt totally custom and tailored to me and my husband and our event. When we got our photos back, I was so overjoyed. She captured the day perfectly. I was (only a very little) nervous about choosing a photographer that was only a solo shooter as opposed to some who come as a team of 2 but I feel absolutely no regrets having one photographer. The photos clearly tell a story from 1 pm when we started to get ready through 4am when the party was over. I would LOVE to work with Magdalene again in the future and surely will contact her the next time my husband and I are in Greece (one year anniversary!!?).

    Magdalene Kourti photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Alexandra! Your wedding was an amazing experience, full of high love vibes! I feel so grateful! Looking forward to meeting again on a Greek island xx

    Great Talent & Warm Professionalism

    We couldn't be more delighted with our experience with Magdalene. She was not only exceptional behind the lens, but also exhibited a great ability to connect with us and our loved ones during our wedding day. Her communication throughout the entire process - from the planning stage to receiving the photos- was outstanding. During our wedding day, Magdalene's calm and friendly demeanour really stood out and helped creating a comfortable atmosphere - she was great in capturing candid moments and her natural discreetness added a genuine touch to the photos. The end result was a great collection of images that beautifully captured the essence of the day.

    Best photographer you can hire on Rhodes!

    Working with Magdalene was the easiest part of our wedding planning. We picked her because of her artistic vision and ability to capture both the sweet candid moments throughout the day and the energy of the dance party at our reception. Her photographs were beyond our wildest expectations and we are in awe of her eye. Truly a pleasure working with her, and we'll enjoy the photographs and memories for the rest of our lives.

    Magdalene Kourti photography's reply:

    Thank you so much! Your wedding was such a beautiful and elegant one. I wish we meet again in Rhodes during your summer visits!

    A match made in heaven

    I consider ourselves extremely lucky to have been able to have Magdalene as our wedding photographer. Not only is she a true artist with an exceptional eye and sensibility, who has been able to capture the most wonderful moments of our wedding, but she is also an extremely professional photographer. Everything with her has been smooth from start to finish, and with all the stress a wedding entails this is of considerable importance. In a nutshell, the trust she created has been the source of gorgeous pictures that we will cherish forever and l wish l could work with Magdalene over and over again

    A professional and gifted photographer

    Magdalene was a pleasure to work with. She was easy to contact and arrange a schedule and budget that suited our needs. She was on time and picked 2 great locations.

    She’s a gifted photographer and her photos truly captured the moment. We are very pleased with the result. We would choose her again, and we would recommend her highly to anyone.

    Family Shoot - Rhodes Town

    My wife and I visited Rhodes in October, with our two daughters. Usually we arrange to have a family photoshoot during our holidays, but this trip was fairly last minute, so we didn't plan ahead. Towards the end of our stay, I searched for family photographers and found Magdalene's profile. I was impressed with her beautiful portfolio of images.

    Mindful that we were nearing the end of our stay, timing was critical. To say Magdalene is responsive would be a huge understatement. I initially contacted her via email and within the space of two days we were meeting for the family photoshoot.

    Magdalene was lovely, immediately putting us at ease and our children warmed to her, which is always half the battle! As a local to Rhodes Town, Magdalene made the most of her knowledge to recommend settings and backdrops, to suit the type of pictures that we wanted. Her style is very natural and not forced or staged. Which again, really helped capture our children as my wife and I see them. Like any good professional, she listened, adapted and fully delivered for us.

    Magdalene was quick to make our photoshoot available to us - as I recall within approx. 4 days. We received beautiful images, that we will treasure forever.

    From start to finish, our experience of Magdalene was fantastic. We couldn't have asked for more.

    Thank you ever so much!

    David.

    Amazing & Talented Wedding Photographer

    I knew as soon as I saw Magdalene's photography that she would be the perfect fit for our wedding. Her style is so unique, and she has a talent for capturing real moments and emotions in her subjects.

    Working with her was easy and I couldn't think of a better person to spend our wedding day with. We'll treasure the wonderful photos she took forever.

    Magdalene is a very talented photographer.
    We have seen her work before we agreed to book her for our wedding day and what we really liked about it was the natural way she captures the moments - just like a spectator.

    She captures your soul

    Magdalene is pure magic, she captures the most important candid moments and you don’t even realize she’s in the room. She specializes in journalistic photography so if you don’t like posing for pictures or you are camera shy she is your girl. She documented amazing moments, each pictures conveys emotion, every time I look at a picture i relive my wedding. I highly recommend Magdalene, her pictures are beautiful, she is professional and honest. most of all she helps you feel relaxed on your big day, she truly is a breath of fresh air.

    Magdalene was amazing and made everything so easy. From our first communication a year before the wedding to organising the wedding album Magdalene was always quick to respond and very helpful.

    The photos were amazing and perfectly captured the day. Everything was perfect.
