Planning your wedding should be joyful, not stressful — and your photography should be just as effortless. I’m Irini, a wedding photographer based in Chania, Crete, capturing timeless, emotional, and natural wedding moments for couples from Greece and all over the world.
Whether you’re planning a destination wedding in Greece, a local celebration with family and friends, or a LGBTQ+ wedding, I’m here to make sure your day is documented beautifully, honestly, and with as little stress as possible.
Below you’ll find answers to the questions I hear most often — from timelines and rainy days, to gallery delivery and working with videographers — all designed to help you feel confident, relaxed, and excited for your wedding day.
Your Wedding Photography Questions, Answered
I’m based in beautiful Chania, Crete — an island full of olive trees, stunning sunsets, and endless inspiration.
While most of my weddings are here in Greece, I travel anywhere love takes me — from other Greek islands to Italy, France, and beyond. Your wedding photos are worth the adventure!
I capture weddings in a natural, documentary style with an editorial touch.
My goal is to tell the real story of your day — laughter, tears, and the quiet moments in between. Every photo is composed with care, so your gallery is both beautiful and timeless.
Absolutely, yes — and with all my heart.
Love is love, and every story deserves to be celebrated and remembered exactly as it is.
Some of my favorite weddings ever have been between couples whose joy, warmth, and connection could light up an entire island.
I don’t personally offer video services, but I’m happy to recommend wonderful videographers I’ve worked with before.
I truly believe that photo and video teams need great chemistry — we move around each other all day, often without words, and it’s important that we “dance” together seamlessly.
With the colleagues I recommend, we’re already in sync — we know each other’s rhythm, respect each other’s space, and make sure your story flows beautifully in both photo and film.
Absolutely — a well-planned wedding day timeline is key to relaxed, joyful photography.
Working with a professional wedding planner is always ideal — they help you enjoy the day stress-free and coordinate every detail, ensuring your photographer has the time and space needed to capture all your special moments.
Before the season starts, I send each couple a detailed questionnaire about the wedding day — from preparations to the last dance. Using this, I help fine-tune the photography flow. I also review timelines whenever possible to optimize lighting, timing, and pacing.
If you don’t have a wedding planner, I’ll create a dedicated photography timeline so we know how to move through the day and make sure no important moment is missed.
Some of the most romantic and beautiful wedding photos happen under clouds, rain, or wind.
Crete has incredible light no matter the weather — we just embrace it, and I make sure every shot shines.
I do my best to deliver your gallery as soon as possible. For weddings early in the season, delivery times are usually very short. Later in the season, as weddings accumulate, delivery can take longer.
Typically, your final gallery is ready within 8–16 weeks (2–4 months). You’ll receive a curated online gallery with high-resolution downloads, perfect for sharing with family and friends or printing.
For those who can’t wait, I offer a “Skip the Line” service — a limited paid option that ensures your wedding gallery is delivered within just a few days, depending on availability. This service focuses on my personal editing time and guarantees faster delivery without affecting other weddings.
Almost all couples feel a little shy at first! I create space for you to be yourselves, guiding gently when needed but mostly letting your day unfold naturally. By the end of the day, most couples forget the camera is even there — and the best moments are captured without posing.
