Giusi, Manolo and Amalfitan Coast

Vico Equense, a jewel of Amlfitan coast, is the perfect setting to get married. We had an excellent opportunity to photograph this beautiful bride and groom. Giusi and Manolo had planned to have a polaroid party and a very cool vintage Cuban corner with old hats. They did not miss any details in their designing this wedding. The caterer was so delicious and phenomenal and some of the best catered food I have had in quite some time. Here are some images to view. Enjoy them – Comments always appreciated.

Indian Wedding Portugal – Forte da Cruz Estoril

There are some weddings where we, as wedding photographers, want to leave our gear and join in on the wedding reception fun. And such was the case during Saloni and Brian Sangeet Wedding in Forte da Cruz, Estoril.

This was day 1 of 3 of their Indian wedding in Portugal festivities. Sangeet and Mehendi started the celebrations where girls have their henna done to join all the happy party for Sangeet which is the reception of guests and launch of the party with dance performances and music and delicious Indian food savoring. It was such a pleasure to begin their wedding events in the picturesque Forte da Cruz in Estoril, Portugal. The old fortress used to be closed and abandoned, but recently it has been renovated and is a host and Portugal wedding Venue to a lot of beautiful destination weddings. And it is such a stunning landmark in Estoril. Its glory and splendor are the best for honoring gorgeous wedding festivities.

Tha had been a fantastic day where guests from all parts of the world came to celebrate the couples Portugal Destination Wedding. And all the guests said one thing, that the soon to be wed pair has a special something. We could see the spark between the gorgeous couple that only shows up from pure love and bonding. We are so fortunate to be their Portugal wedding photographer and not only have we been enriched culturally through this event, but also our we gained new friends around the world. It was our debut photographing a wedding at this Forte da Cruz wedding venue, but it has been a first of many, and all festivities we have had the honor of documenting has a unique charm that only an ancient building can give.

We hope that our photographs depict just how beautiful this Indian Wedding in Portugal was.

Santorini and Athens Elopement photo tour

Greece is for many years now considered to be as one of the top destinations globally for weddings, elopements, anniversaries, photo tours and wedding portraits photo sessions, to speak with photography terms.

Since Greece is also one of the top tourism and holiday destinations as well!

Athens is the capital city, and many people select this destination for experiencing the tradition, the urban landscape and the modern way of living in combination with the country’s history.

Santorini from the other hand is the perfect island that describes a majestic landscape, the summer feeling and the extraordinary architecture and combination of the Greek colors….white and blue!

Clement and Bonnie being photographed at Santorini and Athens

Clement and Bonnie, a lovely couple from China that traveled to Europe and got photographed at Santorini and Athens.

This I guess is one of the good things that globalization brings along nowadays!

They were looking for the appropriate photographer for their elopement when they came upon my portfolio at my website!

Instantly they both decided that I was the photographer for them, as they told me while having a refreshment break.

Photo tour at Santorini

We had a full day photo tour session at Santorini island. We managed to follow the plan I made for them to perfection and visited all the places we were planning to. Our session run smoothly!

Photo tour at Athens

We met a few days later at Athens. This time we planned a quicker, half day, walking photo tour. On this occasion, things were not as easy as we expected since we bumped into demonstrations. No problem though, we instantly adjusted our plans and job was done! The main problem was the extreme heatwave! So when we finished, a cold coffee was a perfect decision!

Better not to say (write) more as the photographs will describe our photography sessions better than my writing….
