Top Crete Photo Shoots - page 2

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion in Crete—such as an engagement, anniversary, or a birthday—or you simply want to preserve vacation memories, this private photography session is the perfect choice. A professional photographer captures your moments, and you can even rent or purchase a wedding dress if needed (extra charge). Tailored to your preferences, the session is customizable and exclusively for your personal group.

Everyone knows the standard photos taken by vacation photographers. But I offer you photos from a completely different perspective that no one in your circle of friends has and you will stand out from the crowd! We start our shooting at the Nikolaos Church in Georgioupolis at sunrise. The orange light of the morning sun fills this place with magic and we will capture the first snapshots of the day. Then we go to the Kalyvaki beach, which is still deserted at this point in time, and take pictures of you on and in the crystal-clear, turquoise water.

Using my two professional cameras and my several different lenses, I make sure that I will catch photos that you will love. Since photography is the only way to travel back in time, make sure that your photos worth it!
