Some of my sessions will be showcased on one of my web sites, social media platforms or even be submitted on according
publications to promote my work. That is probably how you found me 🙂
In return my clients are allowed private use of the images. This includes printing and sharing online with your friends and family.
Commercial or third-party use has to be mentioned and agreed on and needs my written consent.
Client privacy if requested is +40% of the final price.
During all my sessions I enjoy adding elements of true Lifestyle. Sometimes more and sometimes less.
And I don’t just use the word Lifestyle as a fashionable term, that is used to impress, or for search engines to be found, but I use it because I enjoy bringing a touch of real life into everything I shoot.
Let it be a wedding, an engagement, a portrait, a hotel, a villa or even a dish of food.
This is simply a reflection of my personality shaped by where I grew up at, the place I live in now, and is simply what I truly do best.
My work is not complete till I edit and process all my images. And that is the main reason I do not deliver RAW pictures.
A signature look comes with the ideal coloring, toning or black & white creation.
I would say that I am appropriately quiet when needed as well as loud and cheerful at the right time. I tend to smile and bring out humor at most of my sessions.
And when called for I will loudly orchestrate a large crowd to achieve a great image.
Overall, I like to see a session naturally take its course yet retaining a sense for each person’s personality.
Andreas is a true master of photography. He captured our spirit and energy so well. I couldn't believe how brilliant the photos were when they came back. Beautifully framed and flawlessly edited. He was also great at prompting and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. He captured our day perfectly. Thank you!
We found Andreas to be very progressional and it was clear that he had a great knowledge of when and where to take photos. Although he gave clear directions to allow us to get the best photos we did not feel pushed or posed at all. This resulted in some very natural, fun photos which captured every element of the day perfectly.
The best! He took our proposal pictures! Amazing! He was so kind and made us laugh. I would recommend him again & again. Thank you for taking such great photos! My future husband surprised me I had no idea he was going to propose and he was great at distracting me with taking amazing photos! These are the best photos ever! Obsessed!
✨ Love knows no borders ✨
Two beautiful souls traveled all the way from the States to say “I do” in the breathtaking mountains of Crete, Greece. 🇬🇷🧡
Their intimate elopement at @markakisestate in Apokoronas was a dream brought to life — with a stunning orange theme woven through every detail, from the vibrant florals to the cake. Every moment was perfectly prepared and styled by the incredible team at @creteforlove
The mountainous landscape they fell in love with became the backdrop for their love story, and the emotions captured in these images speak volumes. Pure joy. Deep connection. Unforgettable moments.
Congratulations to these two radiant brides! 🧡🤍

Here’s a shorter version without “workshop”:
Just returned from an incredible journey to Madeira, Portugal, and my heart is so full! 🇵🇹✨
.
Spending days on this stunning island with fellow photography pros, we captured beautiful couples against Madeira’s breathtaking landscapes – but the real magic happened between the shots.
The connections we made, the knowledge we shared, and those golden hour moments when everything just clicked – these are the memories I’ll treasure most.
To my new friends and creative collaborators: thank you for inspiring me and reminding me why I fell in love with photography. We didn’t just create beautiful images together; we built a new community, willing to support each other.
Madeira, you were the perfect backdrop for new beginnings. Until next time! 📸💙
.
Special thanks to mr @wayupnorth himself @_coleroberts for bringing us together and setting this up.
And to Youtube wedding photographer sensation @taylorjackson for being part of the team.

Lost in the ancient laurel forests of Madeira 🌿✨
There’s something otherworldly about Madeira’s mystical forests—where centuries-old trees twist into powerful, almost spooky shapes, and the mist wraps around you like a veil. On this windy day, nature became the perfect co-creator for this intimate elopement.
.
The way her dress danced with the wind, how they moved through the trees, above them, within them—this is what elopement photography is all about. Raw, untamed, and deeply personal.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding that breaks all the rules in one of the world’s most unique locations, let’s talk. Madeira’s ancient forests are waiting.

Madeira Island — wild cliffs, lush forests, and endless ocean views. A place where nature feels alive in every direction. As a destination and elopement photographer, usually based in sunny Crete, I was amazed by Madeira’s raw beauty — the mist, the wind, and the dramatic light that turned every moment into something cinematic.
.
This elopement was a reminder that love stories don’t need perfect weather — just two people ready to embrace the adventure. The wind, the waves, and the mountain peaks became part of their story, creating images full of emotion and atmosphere.

Walking through the sun-drenched streets of Funchal was pure magic. The bright, beautiful day brought the vibrant colors of Madeira’s capital to life as I captured it all on my 35mm film camera.
There’s something special about shooting film—the intentionality, the anticipation, the timeless quality it brings to each frame. Between shots, I grabbed some video on my iPhone to capture the movement and energy of this stunning town.

Madeira in Bloom
There are moments when nature and emotion meet in perfect harmony — like this one, where a bride in a soft, flowing white dress paused beneath an enormous red bougainvillea on the island of Madeira.
The contrast of her elegance against the vivid bloom felt like a quiet conversation between grace and passion. This elopement was a celebration of simplicity and beauty, where every step told a story and every color carried meaning.

A color that speaks in emotions rather than words — bold, passionate, and endlessly alive. In the quiet hills of Apokoronas, within a secluded little Greek chapel on the island of Crete, red became the heartbeat of this intimate elopement. From the vivid blooms that framed their vows to the cake that celebrated their joy, every detail carried warmth, love, and timeless beauty. This was a celebration of connection — where tradition met emotion, and love found its color.

Sultry summer evenings in Greece are almost here.
Barefoot walks along golden beaches, the sun melting into the sea.
On the island of Crete, every sunset whispers temptation.
Get ready to feel the heat.

Private portrait session in the Venetian harbor of Chania Crete.
While visiting Greece Johnny wanted to capture a Saint-Tropez-ish vibe of images for his personal use.
A great gift anyone can arrange while on vacation.
This was a 2hr session that included a short boat ride, some drone images, Polaroids and even medium format film shots
.
All together to make the feeling nostalgic and original
