Frequently asked questions
General
Which areas do you work in?
I'm based in Athens and we work in Attica, Volos, the Peloponnese, Northern Greece, the Cyclades, the Ionian Islands and Crete. Tell me where your day is and I will tell you how we can arrange it.
Do you work outside Greece?
Not yet, and to be honest we would love to.
How much does it cost?
There are no ready made packages and no price list, because the cost depends on the area and on what you want us to cover. Send me the date, the venue and what you are interested in, and I will reply myself within 24 hours.
How much experience do you have?
I have been a professional photographer since 2017, and with the FotoPaths team we have done more than 400 weddings and 250 christenings.
Do you work alone or with a team?
With the FotoPaths team: we do photography, video and drone footage, with an assistant when needed.
Can we have only photography, or only video?
Yes. Photography and video usually go together, but you can also have just one of the two, whichever you prefer, at a wedding as well as at a christening.
How early should we book?
Ideally 6 to 12 months before the ceremony. Later than that it gets tight, because we may not be free.
How do we book a date?
Write to me through the form or by email, with the date and the venue, and I will reply myself within 24 hours. Then we talk on the phone and, depending on where you are, we also meet in person to go over the details.
Weddings
Will you be at our wedding yourself?
Yes, I will be there myself. It is what couples usually ask me before booking, and I understand why: you want the person you spoke to, whose photographs you have seen. That is why I never book two weddings on the same day.
How would you describe your style?
In the preparations and the shoot on the day after (next day), more of a fashion feel. During the ceremony and at the reception, I shoot as reportage.
Do you also film?
Yes, if you want it. From a wedding you get three films in 4K: a video clip, a long film of the wedding and the hours we filmed at the party. We keep them apart, because the whole ceremony and the party together would make a film of two to three hours. There is drone footage too.
Do you shoot before or after the wedding?
Yes, and quite a few couples ask for them. The pre-wedding shoot happens a few months before the wedding, and we need it mostly for the film, because it makes the story more complete. The next day shoot happens a few days after the wedding, usually the week after: we go somewhere you like, we suggest places too, and we stay about 2 to 3 hours, with photography and video.
When do we get the photographs?
Always as fast as we can, usually in less than 6 months. First comes a careful selection and editing, and the films are made; then you get the photographs as high quality digital files.
How many photographs will we get?
We cannot give a number at the start. We make a very careful selection and edit them, and in the end you get the photographs edited, as high quality digital files.
Can we have an album too?
Yes. For albums we work with Album Lab. I send them the files, and from there you talk to them directly about the binding and the materials: leatherette, plexiglass, wood, whatever you like. You also pay them directly for the album.
Christenings
Do you photograph the reception too?
At a christening we cover the ceremony with photography and video. The reception too, if you ask us to.
Proposals
How does a proposal shoot work?
We talk the concept through beforehand with whoever is going to propose. We photograph the moment itself, and film it as well if you want.
