Contact Magdalene Kourti

Magdalene Kourti is an award-winning documentary wedding photographer based in Greece, celebrated for her honest and artistic storytelling. With a background in Fine Arts and a passion for both digital and 35mm film, she captures the authentic, unscripted beauty of Mediterranean celebrations. Known for her calm presence and sophisticated eye, Magdalene creates timeless, soulful imagery for couples seeking a genuine narrative of their destination wedding or elopement.

Where are you located? Do you charge a travel fee for weddings not in your location?

For the last few years I am based on Rhodes and Naxos (where my parents come from), in Greece. I do charge a flat rate for travel and accommodation for destination weddings all over Greece and Cyprus, unless otherwise agreed.

How long have you been in business? How many weddings have you photographed as the main photographer?

Since 2009, ..really many, each of them unique :)

Describe your "style" of wedding photography.

I blend digital and film photography to tell your story authentically. Every wedding is unique, and I aim to preserve its spirit, laughter, tears, and joy, creating images that feel timeless. 
Whether it’s a barefoot celebration on a Cycladic beach, a historic village ceremony, or an intimate elopement, my goal is the same: to document your day as it truly happens — beautifully, naturally, and honestly.

What's the typical wedding coverage package that you offer? What is the price?

I will deliver the edited files 4-6 weeks after the shoot day in a private gallery, protected with a password in order to share with friends and relatives; and download your edited high resolution files. All photos are professionally edited, color and exposure corrected, and polished for delivery. You will receive all edited digital images with a personal use copyright release. My belief is that a photo is not finished until it is printed. I design each album individually.

What are your professional degrees, credentials, affiliations? Have you taken any recent educational workshops or classes?

With a BA in Fine Arts from WCA, University of the Arts London, and an MA in Digital Arts from London Guildhall University, my work has earned accolades like the Adobe Award and a BBC distinction. Featured in Grace Ormonde Wedding Style magazine, I have also photographed Madam Shoushou’s collection and participated in the Outnet photo session.

Is there anything else you'd like to share about yourself?

Born in Athens and with family roots across the Cyclades and Dodecanese islands—including Naxos, Amorgos, Rhodes, Symi, Crete and Samos, and 25 summers on Lemnos—I bring a deep knowledge of Greece’s diverse landscapes, venues, and cultural nuances. Specializing in destination weddings in Greece, I prioritize a seamless, meaningful experience for couples, ensuring they feel comfortable and present. To me, the Greek islands are more than a destination—they are a feeling, inspiring images that are as timeless as the settings themselves.

I thought I booked a photographer but instead I got an angel. I absolutely loved how little pressure you applied to getting the right shot. You let the moments unfold organically and caught timeless scenes for us to remember forever. Your presence is calm and warm—we always felt relaxed.
