Morning
The Old Town
Shady lanes, pastel façades and the arcades of the Liston before they fill up.
The narrow lanes (kantounia) are still in shade. A window opens, laundry dries between the houses, and somewhere further on a church bell rings.
Corfu has something of Venice, something of Paris and something entirely its own. And a lot of green.
Why Corfu
Elegance and nature on the same island
The Old Town with its arcades, squares and fortresses. A little further out, cypresses, olive groves and shores with blue-green water.
For a couple this means two worlds in one day: the elegance of the town in the morning and the calm of nature at sunset.
It suits a wedding, an after-wedding session a few days later, a pre-wedding shoot or an elopement, with the town in the morning and a shore at sunset.
The light
Three times of day in Corfu
In Corfu the light is softer than on the Aegean islands, thanks to the greenery and the humidity. It flatters faces all day long.
Afternoon
The fortresses
Stone, sea and a view of the town from above.
Sunset
The shores
The sun sets over the Ionian, behind the rocks of the west coast.
The places
Where we photograph
We plan the route together, depending on the light and how much you want to travel around the island.

- Liston & SpianadaThe arcades and the great square, elegant and bright.

Before you come
Seasons, timing and what to wear
When to come
From April to October. Spring is lush and green, autumn warm and quiet. In July and August the town is busy, so we shoot early and late.
Best time of day
We photograph the Old Town early, before the shops open. We keep the afternoon and the sunset for the shores.
Styling
The town loves elegance: classic lines, satin, linen. Warm neutrals blend with the pastel façades, and white stands out against the green. Bring comfortable shoes for the cobbles and the rocks.

Frequently asked questions
Can we combine town and sea on the same day?
Yes. The morning is for the Old Town and the afternoon for a shore on the west side, where the sun sets over the sea.
Which season is best?
May, June and September: green landscapes, warm sea and fewer people than in high summer.
Can you also photograph our wedding there?
Yes. We cover every wedding exclusively with a double team: four professionals, not two professionals and two assistants. Your couple session can take place on the day itself or a few days later, as an after-wedding shoot.
How do travel expenses work?
We are based in Patras and travel all over Greece, to the mainland and the islands. Travel and accommodation costs are discussed from the start, so you know the full amount before you book.
Can we also have a film?
Yes, the photography can be combined with a wedding film. See examples on our Films page.
How early should we book?
The earlier the better, especially for the summer months. Tell us your dates and we will let you know our availability.
