TESTIMONIAL

“Words cannot describe how grateful my husband and I are to have found Angela and Giorgos. Recommended by our amazing wedding planner, we embarked upon a unique journey with the arChive team, starting with the warmth of our first meeting all the way to the smiles and cries of happiness when we saw the final result during a fun-filled presentation at their awesome studio in Athens.

The quality of their photos – if you can call them that, to us they are more like snapshots of heaven – is simply incomparable to anything we have ever seen. Choose arChive photography if you want the most amazing, innovative, unique, fun, honest and absolutely beautiful photos. Choose arChive if you want photographers who are really going to get under your skin and create a completely tailor-made experience that you’re surely going to remember for ever (we’re sure we will!). Thank you thank you thank you again Angela and Giorgos for everything!!!”

Storytelling wedding photography – Sifnos

In mythology, humans had four arms, four legs, and two faces. Fearing them, Zeus split them into two, forcing an eternal search for their other half. Zeus obviously has failed.

Having travelled from the UK and Canada, Maria and Pierre-Louis chose Sifnos as their destination wedding.
The most challenging thing about photographing weddings is to capture the essence of love as felt by another. Going back to define the characteristics of this beautiful wedding, beyond the elegant decoration and a well-planned timeline is the spirit and the vibe. We identify and connect to the profound beauty of the happiest personalities. The smiles, as they come, pure and raw. Sharing this can be a fascinating experience—every time.

And here there is a story to be told.

// The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon //

Sometimes it is all about a word that will trigger and bring out the elements for our storytelling. Sometimes it is about a twirl or a twist of a sentence you use to play with each other. And sometimes it is about objects—favourite things. Small or big.Anything you connect to.

It is our endless adventure. What is essential for us is all that is meaningful to you. We then make pictures.

The ceremony took place in Chrissopigi church.
The reception was held at Fasolou beach.

Sifnos / Greece

Are you considering Greece as your wedding destination? Sifnos may be one of the most popular destinations in the Cyclades.

This beautiful Greek Island has become so familiar to us, yet each time we revisit, we discover new opportunities for inspiration. It is also so much about the way one can experience things with different people. After all, what we do is about people. It is all about how you interpret what is happening in front of you, and how far you can go into visualizing this interpretation. Of love. Handled with love. 

// About Sifnos Island Greece

Ideal for couples, Sifnos is rated as one of the top wedding destinations in the Greek Islands.

The romantic ambience of the island and the warm hospitality provide you with the ideal conditions for the wedding of your dreams. 

This beautiful Cycladic Island in the heart of the Aegean sea oozes a fairy tale charm that makes it so unique. Boasting the typical Cycladic architecture, Sifnos is dotted with cubic whitewashed houses, and hundreds of beautiful churches, so characteristic in the Cyclades. 

One of the best things to do in Sifnos, especially if you want to experience the essence of the island, is to visit the quaint Sifnos villages. Kastro, Artemonas and Apollonia, they are absolute musts! 

Get lost in the narrow alleys of Kastro, eat the best local food in Artemonas and have a taste of the cosmopolitan side of the island in Apollonia. Every corner of this is unique!

Last but not least is the unreal beauty of the beaches. Escape the summer heat and take a dip at Chrisopigi beach, under the homonymous whitewashed church, at the cosmopolitan Platis Gialos, at sandy Vathi beach, following by a seafood meal, and at Kamares, the options are endless.

// TESTIMONIAL

“Giorgos and Angela are moment hunters. It’s very simple and self explanatory, as they will ‘kill’ to grasp that tiny amazing small moment that it’s so powerful and you never even noticed, and your wedding day it’s over, but they noticed and it’s there captured for you for ever! They are the best choice you can ever make, as they are not ordinary photographers. I am afraid I have no words to express how grateful and blessed we are that we accidentally found them and they accepted to become our storytellers for our special day. In few words, they go above and beyond expectations on everything – visually, conceptually, professionally – they are thee with you, without you knowing, they will bring out your best self, your emotions, your authentic thoughts on film. They are magicians, capturing the milli seconds of your most hidden moments during your wedding days, make sure you get to meet them and know them and connect with them before making any other choice. Thank you arChive, we love you deeply.”

Ioanna & Fanis

This was a perfect start for a series of weddings in Sifnos for the season. Never the same as any previous one, the island and our couple tempted us once more. To be inspired and unique, to be personal and to come up with imagery that highlights their dreams, their memories and their very personal story. Sifnos is one of our very favourite Greek islands, and always rewards us with exceptional imagery!
It is in Sifnos that Fanis and Ioanna chose to reload. No place could be a more perfect match than this beautiful destination, with its whitewashed houses standing like pearls along the crest of the island. Unspoiled footpaths link villages under the warm changing light,
kissing the landscape and exploring the slopes of the mountains, to meet with olive trees, bays with aqua waters, offering that breathtaking experience, so characteristic in the Cyclades. If you are considering your wedding in Greece, Sifnos is a fantastic destination.

 With the typical Cycladic aura, excellent facilities and accommodation and very close to Athens. Enjoy our wedding photography in Chrissopigi, the famous church on the island. For more information about this wedding destination, don’t hesitate to get in touch at info@rchive.gr

Fanis and Ioanna, their beautiful families and their extraordinary friends took every extra step to make their wedding day extravagantly beautiful. We have laughed, and we have cried. We have enjoyed, and we have lived. Their dream became ours to share and preserve. Every moment was irresistibly inspiring. Being their photographers on their three-day wedding was nothing like common. We wish for them the best from our hearts, and we thank them for their trust and friendship.

“It was a crazy, crazy wedding, a two-day party filled with sensations, with the background of our beloved Island Serifos. George and Angela, we shall never forget your eagerness and smiles throughout the weekend. From our very first meeting until the last click, you never stopped surprising us with your professionalism and your ideas. A great thank you for the amazing images you, by all means, recorded the best moments. We are still trying to choose our most favourite ones, but this is such a hard task, as each one hides something different yet.”

Wedding Photographer Serifos //

Serifos is a charming and elegant Greek Island and the most niche wedding destination. 

Serifos Island, with its rugged mining sites, ladened with history, has its own distinct Cycladic flair. The island exudes a calm atmosphere and speaks directly to your senses. Despite its arid and wildland characteristics, Serifos is gracefully embraced by the deep blue colours of the Aegean Sea.

The locals have respected the traditional Cycladic architecture by building white and blue houses making the island’s towns and villages all the more beautiful. The imposing Chora town is built amphitheatrically on a rocky hill commanding the island from the top. It is one of the most beautiful Cycladic villages that will inspire you, even before the ship docks, on your arrival to Serifos. Chora is connected by a stairway to Pano (meaning upper) Chora and Kato (meaning lower), leading to narrow streets that blend in harmoniously to the whole scene. We enjoy walking up to the Venetian castle that majestically overlooks the Aegean sea. It is our favourite place to have Rakomelo. Rakomelo is a spirited liqueur with honey. A centuries-old Greek recipe of a soothing Raki brew with mountain honey and spices from the Aegean Islands.

Locals on the Aegean islands throughout the centuries used to warm up Raki (grape pomace distillate; grappa) and add honey, as a warm treat, a winter remedy to share among friends. It has become one of our very favourite drinks.

 A well-cared-for portis an ideal place for lazy evening walks by the seashore. There are plenty of beaches to choose from; rocky, pebbly or sandy with fantastic crystal blue waters.

The romantic atmosphere and the island landscape create the ideal conditions to have the wedding of your dreams in Serifos.

Small village churches by the sea, isolated chapels with a breathtaking view, idyllic sunset photoshoots on sandy beaches, 

 or in the traditionally paved narrow streets of Chora. The old mine installations are one of our most favourite locations, but the beauty of this island is endless. You can party all night and enjoy the most unique cuisine. Serifos combines all the necessary conditions for you to organize your perfect wedding.

You can read more about Serifos here. Find more information about Serifos in its Official Site: www.serifos-island.com and  here.

Afroditi & Pepe in Milos

It only seemed appropriate for this wedding to take place in Milos considering the origin of Aphrodite of Milos(aka Venus de Milo) and our Afrodite.

// TESTIMONIAL

It was love at first sight! We knew the moment we met Angela and Giorgos that they were the ones. Two great individuals, absolute professionals with amazing talent and passion but even more important very human, full of emotions that inspired us immediately. We had found our wedding storytellers! We trusted them, they became “our people” in this unique life experience. They “followed” us everywhere, super discreet and at the same time super present, sharing our enthusiasm, joy, even our tears of happiness. Our photographs speak for themselves, equal to thousands of words, emotions, colors and wonderful memories that will stay with us in the years to come. Thank you both for everything!!!

Afroditi & Pepe

Wedding Photography in Milos

Milos island is mostly known as the place where the inhabitants discovered the famous statue of Venus, or Aphrodite, now in the Louvre Museum in Paris

It only seemed appropriate for this wedding to take place in Milos considering the origin of Aphrodite of Milos (aka Venus de Milo) and our Afrodite.

Giuseppe, the Italian gentleman from Parma who stole the heart of our Afridite and inevitably all impressions, after performing a traditional cantata, singing a Greek song in a performance no one could resist, and like a genuine true Italian gentleman, escorted his beautiful girl to the beginning of their new life together.

Inevitable, one and one is not two. It’s exponentially greater.

Beautiful families from Italy and Greece and friends from all over the world came to Milos to share the happiest time of their life.

For us, as Destination Wedding Photographers, this wedding in Milos was a very inspiring and fulfilling experience.

As for the Milos Wedding photographers, what can we say?
Our scouting was an endless adventure of over 400 Km through dust and rocks.

It just another obsession of ours to discover hidden paradises around every corner of the world, so we couldn’t possibly omit Sarakiniko for an after day session. It is definitely true that Milos is the most romantic place in Greece as this is an island that can hide amazing surprises and photo opportunities around every corner.

It’s the charm of this island with the white sandy beaches and rocky coves. This harmonic combination of green crystal clear waters, the deepest blue sky and white rocks that surround the beaches, make this place divine!

The most beautiful destination // Milos 

After a very brief summer vacation, our mission was to pack, board the Speedrunner again and head to Milos to meet Afroditi and Giuseppe. All who know us already understand we would never, ever miss an opportunity to visit Milos. The nature of this island, the sea, the vibe, will make anyone wish to be back. You can have so many alternative experiences on this island with the exceptionally unique wild landscape. The unbelievable colours of the sea, the smells, the beautiful sunsets, the gentle breeze, the calm atmosphere, everything about this island, easily makes it our top favourite destination. 

The island has more than 70 beaches, and each one has its own characteristics, colours and beauty.

Waters of blue, azure, emerald, green, red and violet colours contrasting with white, black, pink, or red rocks, Milos is the Island of Colours. We find our hidden paradise in Kimolos and Poliaigos, the two nearby islands with the most amazing secluded beaches you have ever seen.

More about the Island can be found here.

Wedding Photography Naxos

Peru & Yiorgos

“And when she walked holding wild flowers in her hands the world stood still. For these few seconds, the world belonged to her!”

Wedding in Naxos

We hope we never grow to lose the inspiration in the smallest and simplest of things. We hope never to forget the magic in sunsets or ever laugh less. We hope to always be able to leave a space for magic to happen.

And when she walked holding wildflowers in her hands, the world stood still. For these few seconds, minutes, hours, days or years, the world belonged to her. A day like no other. A day of no necessities, or compromises. Her day!
And he was the soul within this magic. It was all becoming inexplicably connected, the location, the people, the ruins behind us, the priest, the people, the appropriateness of a moment, of synchronicity, the rain that spared to spoil the dream, just for that one day, and the Sea. Its always the Sea. This day was so close to perfection.

Someone has to tell these tales. Someone needs to show these bits of overlapping narrative. Someone has to walk a mile in your shoes. Someone has to care. And there is a soul in all of that. We often tell a tale that takes up residence in someone’s soul, endlessly driving, transforming or shaping images- to memories- to magic. And this is our gift.

Why Naxos ?

Naxos, because nobody can resist the never-ending golden sandy beaches, with the crystal clear blue waters. It is here that you can find what you are looking for, to bring back home magnificent memories and strong images of diverse scenery and unique landscape patterns.

We have been to Naxos many many times, but we have never failed to discover yet another hidden treasure. A wedding in Naxos is a wonderfully rewarding experience as the island offers an endless variety of original alternatives. Gastronomically it is unbeatable!

For Peru and George, it was an Island in the Aegean neither had visited before. Just that!

Wedding photography does not have to look like wedding photography. It is all about relationships.
What makes the world of a difference, is the connection between people and the means by which you can spot, understand, experience and interpret these relationships. We summon creativity, courage, and the vision to bend, or very often break the rules.

And there are no second chances.  

Photographer Naxos

Wedding Photography

It takes hard preparation, precision organisation, and endless creativity. It takes all of these, but more, to even have a chance of delivering stunning results.
It is not about the lense or the camera, but the photographer behind it. You need to be brave and confident to cross boundaries to explore your world in others. But even more than that, we believe that what makes a photograph truly important is the experience it can deliver.

Someone needs to tell these stories. Like when the pirates find their treasures, and the princesses their prince. We need to tell these bits of overlapping narrative. There is magic in that. It’s in us. And for each one of us it will be different, and it will touch you, us, in ways we can never predict. From the mundane to the profound. Don’t forget, there are many kinds of magic. And you can take this story from your heart and shape it. Then it will take residence in your heart. And in ours. You are the life of it.
This is our role.
And this is our gift.

Wedding in Scotland // Comlongon Castle

Rania & Stratos

A beautiful and ever so inspired couple, that shared their dreams with us and honored us with yet another fairy tale.

// TESTIMONIAL

The truth be told we went through  a lot of research. I being a perfectionist and “difficult”, the wedding set in a medieval concept in one of the best castles in Scotland, everything was taken care of in every detail. The photographs HAD to be perfect Google search was set on fire. Nothing could stand for what we had in mind. Up until the day our wedding coordinator, announced in a tone that allowed no contradictions: “Stop this research. Only arChive can immortalize something so unique. These guys will exceed every one of your expectations, guaranteed” Needless to say the photos are unreal (extraordinary).
A real fairy tale, as contradictory as this may sound. Τhe feeling of the whole day was imprinted in every single image. We were at loss of words when the presentation was over. Bearing in mind that the wedding was not a traditional Greek Orthodox wedding, but bore a number of peculiarities, which George and Angela had never previously witnessed, to say that the result was EXCELLENT is only very little. We spent five unforgettable days, with two marvelous people, with whom we fit perfectly, and the result was such, that even when years have gone by, it will always wander us back tour own personal and unique  fairy tale. Ιn a little castle somewhere in Scotland.

// Stratos & Rania

This bespoke Medieval Wedding in Scotland was held at the Comlongon Castle, near Gretna in Scotland. In this restored 15th Century Medieval Scottish Castle Wedding Venue, a luxurious Baronial Hotel with themed luxury en-suite bedrooms, and Honeymoon Lodge was where our couple would exchange their vows. Their choice of a location was as inspiring as the stories about it. A beautiful and ever so unique couple shared their dreams with us for yet another fairy tale.

We believe in classic beginnings of once upon a time, where good conquers evil, in fantasy and fate, in stories about love. We believe in wondrous enchantment, a place of endless possibilities and dreams, where inspiration is found in the oddest of places.

We aspire to inspire, and someday we will change the world.

“While ‘Once upon a time’ may be a great way to start a story, ‘Here in the moment’ is the best way to live one.”

The Medieval theme of this wedding was so well supported by friends and family, Scots and Greeks who fell into the mood of this love story/ It was enhanced with a rock approach that only felt so natural coming from this charismatic couple. We wish for them a life full of fairy tales and happy endings!

About Medieval wedding themes //

A medieval wedding ceremony can be a romantic and unconventional way to celebrate your union. You can pick and choose which elements will create a unique cross between tradition and real life. 

About the Castle //

Standing in 120 acres of secluded woodland and gardens, Comlongon Castle is a massive 14th- or 15th-century tower of five storeys and a garret within a corbelled-out parapet. Parts of the wall are roofed-in to form small, gabled chambers, and there is a cap house crowning the main stair. 

The entrance to the tower, still with its iron yett, is reached by an external stair. It leads to the vaulted basement which has very thick walls, with a well, and to the turnpike stair, which climbs to the first-floor hall.
The hall has a stone-flagged floor, two fireplaces – one in a deep arched recess – and two mural chambers, one reached by a stair in the thickness of the wall, which goes to a guardroom and dark prison. There were private chambers above, each with its own fireplace.

‘Kumlingen Cast.’ is marked on Blaeu’s map of Annandale. You can read here more about Comlogon Castle

On another note, finding joy in the glory of travel, we cannot seem to find anything that excites a greater sense of childish wonder, that to be in a country where we are ignorant of almost everything. Where our existence depends on a series of guesses, and our comfort zone drops down to zero.

We travel a lot to find ourselves. We learn to live. To understand the differences and redefine the way we see the world and ourselves in it. Most of all, we learn to live in this world with respect.

Rock & Glam wedding in Kifissia // Athens Wedding photography

Despoina & Alex

A combination of the all time classic chic of Kifissia,
the birthtown of both and the strong personality of two authentic rock stars!

// Testimonial

“On the run… suggestions, counter – suggestions, demands, suspense, strain, objections, fits of rage, explosions, exasperations, weariness… All there for this notorious wedding day. The truth is we cannot recall much. We couldnt even enjoy this day as much as we would like to. What remained  in the end, is the wedding gown, the suit and the photographs. The clothes have already been condemned to life sentence in the closet. On the other hand the photos spread  and expand as would a  virus, leaving everyone with some kind of quirk in the mouth. Whoever saw the photos realized the mistake made in their own wedding, It is not only a matter of quality that intimidates the work of other artists in the field, but also the creativity and imagination that arises from  this opportunity called wedding and all that is eventually imprinted in the material delivered. 

The ceremony, the party and the styled day after photo shoot, with photos that are immured in frames and decorate furniture and mantlepieces, is something everyone has access to. Our photographers have immortalized the whole timeline of our preparations. That is those candid and very real moments before the official massacre of the freedom of two people. Many more extras as a separate concept were prepared  for us by the arChive team highlighting our personalities. that we shall not reveal. And we were surprised. The arChive team did not deliver us with material to be seen in the future with farsighted glasses, but images from our personal short period in time. This special period that everyone will look back on, to revive memories passed. In conclusion they are excellent professionals, and they have excellent personalities…”

In his Attic NightsAulus Gellius describes the unique ambiance of intellectual ferment and aristocratic leisure in an idyllic setting which he created there. Now a strong part od this life story Kifissia remains a suburb with unique character and a mood.

The story of Alex and Despoina. A combination of the all time classic chic of Kifissia, the birthtown of both  and the strong personality of two authentic rock stars! Such perfect  harmony… and so much natural beauty!

Being fanatic lovers of  images that are evocative and get you wondering, this magnifiscent couple gave us all the inspiration to keep us alert for quite a long time. We followed them everywhere. Wedding proposals, bridal rehearsals, tatoo studios, and so much more. Moments that will always linger and remain vivid to our eyes  and hearts.

A Romantic Wedding in Sifnos

Sifnos Photography

This is Nick and Valmina, who met in  Yemen  and travelled the world to end up where else… but Sifnos.

// TESTIMONIAL

We’ve been trying very hard and for many days to find the right words to describe the feelings we felt during those days and in the result we received from Angela and George… Finding the right photographers to capture our special day wasn’t an easy task. We spoke and met with many photographers but we were not satisfied with anything we saw. The only thing we knew was that we wanted something special, something more than a photograph, something completely natural and unique, something that we could not find anywhere! In the midst of millions of errands and stress and when we were starting to get desperate, we met the arChive guys (and we have to thank our wedding planner, My Best Wishes Events, for that). And the rest is history… What remains from these moments is photographs. And arChive managed to give us not just great photographs but an array of our own short stories. Each photograph is unique and constitutes a small piece of our own fairy tale. This is the fairy tale that we would like to remember and tell after many years when memories start to fade away. So, this fairy tale will stay alive because of Angela and George. What should you expect from the rChive team? Well, utmost professionalism and a result that surmounts any expectation. What the rChive team delivers is a form of art. They are your true personal storytellers that will tell your fairy tale in their own amazing way which you will simply never forget…”

Snowy-white houses with traditional chimneys made of potter’s clay and small churches with blue domes, built on green hills, which lead to sandy beaches. This is Sifnos, the gem of Cyclades. A wedding to remember.

The most difficult part about wedding photography is allowing people to connect in front of a camera. Not with Valmina. Such a natural. Her personality overflowed and any connection became instant. Just like she grasped our eyes,  she also stole our hearts. Forever. She became our lucky star!!
Keep on smiling natural, and may your life be what you dream of!

for those meant to be

About Laskaris //

Born on the northeastern Aegean island of Samothraki, Laskaris Valavanis moved to Athens as soon as he finished his schooling, to pursue his dream of becoming a couturier. After graduating from the prestigious Veloudakis College, eager to learn all the secrets of his craft, he started working as an apprentice with three of Greece’s top couturiers, Vouros, Gerardos and Mailis. He gradually developed his skills as a designer while at the same time perfecting his exceptional eye and gift for intricate embroidery, which remains an essential part of his designs to this day. After completing his apprenticeship, he moved to Paris, where for the next six months he fine-honed his skills and broadened his horizons in the Mecca of fashion. He drew inspiration from its legendary creators, not just in couture but also in all the visual arts that are part of the unique vibrancy in the fashion industry. At the end of the 1980s, he collaborated with Gallerie Jade, where he presented his first personal collection and came into contact with the top echelons of the Elite Athenian society. Investing in his skills and reputation, he decided to open his atelier in the prestigious Athenian neighbourhood of Kolonaki.

Today, Laskaris shines bright in the Parisian catwalks and other international fashion designers runways.
