Bride and groom by the sea in Ithaca

Greece  /  Ionian Sea

Ithaca

Weddings and couple photography on the island of Odysseus

Pine-fringed bays, blue water and little chapels by the sea.

Ithaca is quiet, green and full of stories.

An island for those looking for their own journey home.

Why Ithaca

A wedding on an Ionian island

Ithaca combines the green of the Ionian with clear water and small harbours. The setting is simple and authentic, far from the crowds.

A wedding here feels like family: boats carrying guests, chapels by the waves and a celebration beneath the pines.

It suits a whole wedding, an after wedding, a pre-wedding or an elopement.

The light

Three moments of the day on the island

The light in the Ionian is softer than in the Aegean, and the green reaches right down to the sea.

Morning

The gulf

Calm water and boats setting out.

Afternoon

The chapel

White walls and wooden doors in warm light.

Sunset

The shore

The sun sinks behind the hills and the sea grows still.

Frequently asked questions

How do you organise travel to the island?

We plan the ferry crossing in advance and arrive in good time, so we are ready well before your day begins.

Can we also have a shoot on a boat?

Yes. A boat trip gives lovely images of the couple and the guests out on the water.

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 Patra 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.
