My photographic journey starts a bit differently than usual, by not "owing a camera since I was young" but by a hobby I used to have since I was little. The curiosity of observation. I always loved to observe people, their surroundings and fill my eyes with pictures and colors. And this simply because a thousand words, emotions, smells as well as music can fit into a photograph. 
 
The biggest part of my cinematic style was formed by my love for cinema and music. Believe it or not, photographs have music within them. Looking at a photograph evokes an emotion is the same way as listening to a song and these can be combined into one: a photograph that brings to mind a melody. 
 
Things I like: cinema, music and food from all around the world, animals, tea and warm smiles. I speak English and Spanish.

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

I am located in Athens, Greece. I charge a travel fee when outside Athens or abroad.

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

I have been photographing weddings for 7 years now and I have shot more than 120 weddings as well as an equal of 120 christenings.

Describe your "style" of wedding photography.

My style is a mix of 90% photojournalism in order to capture the moments in a very natural way that would later become the precious memories of the couple as well as some 10% guided photos during their portraits in order to make pictures of high aesthetic but with a natural feeling at the same time.

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

The most typical wedding package I offer includes a pre-wedding shooting, the preparations of the couple, ceremony, portraits of the couple as well as family and group photos and of course the wedding party.

Do you have a studio where we can meet? Do you use Skype?

I have a showroom, where I meet with couples to discuss about their weddings and showcase my work. If they live abroad we can always use skype.

We chose Manos for our son's christening, an excellent person and professional. The result of his work is artistic and of high aesthetics. He managed to capture the emotions and atmosphere of the day. Manos, thank you for your amazing work and for being with us on this important day of our lives.

Finding a photographer for our wedding was one of the most important decisions for us in the whole planning...We wanted someone talented enough to capture the emotion, the moments, the real raw feelings - we didn't want something 'staged' - which, is not easy to find. Manos was incredible. No words. Perfection. Amazing. MAGIC.

Pre-wedding it was like we already knew each other, during the wedding he blended in like he was one of our guests, and post-wedding well - the photos left us speechless. They were beyond our expectations, blown away - his talent is unmatched. We can't thank him Read More enough for documenting our day with such magic and would choose him again 10 times over.
