A Wedding in Athens / George-Sevi
As I have already explained here, I am not the biggest fan of wedding photography.
Having said that, I want to tell you about George and Sevi, two very sweet and beautiful people, whom I had the honor of photographing on their wedding day (which was also their little boy's christening).
Two happy people
And a sweet little boy
George and Sevi are an exceptional couple, whom I met through their maid of honor, Fani. Their wedding day was simple and joyful, just like them. Surrounded by a few, but very dear people, they got married and baptized their little boy in a small, scenic church on the top of a hill.
“There is no more lovely, friendly, and charming relationship, communion or company than a good marriage.”
A few days later (after three postponements, if I remember correctly—Mercury in retrograde, as Sevi says), we had a little next-day session, which I really enjoyed.
If only all weddings were so easy and joyful; I would immediately change my opinion about photographing them.

Let me be frank: I almost hate being in wedding and/or christenings as a photographer. I’ve done a few of each and haven’t completely regretted it, but it’s really hard to convince me to take on such an assignment again.
