Our New Site | rChive Premium Wedding Photography

“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky,is by no means a waste of time”.

Remember when you used to lie on the grass and see things in the clouds?

Are you tired of reading about bad economy around the Globe?

We would love to share an Art break with you ;

So this is our story

and the announcement of our New Site | rChive Premium Wedding Photography;

Mesmerized we remained after our second in a row trip to the island of Rhodes. The Old town still leaving its strong effects on us, as we strolled within the medieval walls exploring twenty four centuries of history. Fascinating medieval fortress-like buildings, the bastions, gates, narrow alleys, old houses, fountains, tranquil and busy squares making us feel like we had stepped back in time. The palace of the Grand Master, the cobblestoned Street of the Knights, packed with medieval inns that used to host the Soldiers of the Order of the Knights, one could almost hear the sound of the horses hoofs disappearing in the sunset. Images emerging from the strong impact of a variety of cultures and civilizations, Could not ignore the amazing Turkish district with the Mosque of Mustafah Pasha and the Yeni Hammam. The twelve hour boat trip back to Piraeus held for us yet more surprises. The magic spell of a constantly changing, sky we barely managed to keep up with.The clouds were so challenging to our solitary eyes. Spring breeze carried them back and forth dividing them into hundreds of forms and shapes. A strong lighting, then thunder, brought back life to our idle thoughts.

To quote on our favourite Henri Bresson “A photograph is to put on the same line of sight, the head, the eye and the heart”. We did just that, and wish to share it with you. We hope to keep on carrying you away…

images from the heart.

A Greek – Italian Wedding in Milos by rChive

A perfect afternoon in Milos, with the sounds of happy people in the background, and a bag full of love to get us going. We even got tips on how to drive your italian lover crazy : at some point, during a romantic interlude, just burst into a song with That’s Amore. It still brings a grin on our face.

“Choose the color of a dress after a thousand hesitations, but for God’s sake, get married without reflecting on it! That’s the grace I wish for you. May you even be so distracted that day that you walk past the registry office without remembering to stop there.”

Photo shooting Greek Italian Wedding in Milos, starring Guiseppe & Aphrodite. An honor, an experience and memories of feelings to last us a lifetime. Now let images speak the truth…

Wedding Photographer Syros // Evangelia & Isidoros

Wedding photographer Syros

/ Lost in timeless serenity /

This time it’s Syros for arChive. The island where Greek tradition and western influence come to a harmonious marriage. And as this is Greece, beautiful beaches will forever delight the sea and sand lovers.
Ermoupoli, “the city of Hermes”, evidence of a glorious past still holds everything a Greek island should have.
The most striking feature of the island is the Venetian influence. Unique for the Cyclades is the medieval quarter of the Roman Catholic community and the fortress-like cathedrals. Ano Syros, a beautiful village hanging at the top of the hills with picturesque narrow streets, traditional whitewashed houses, archways and open spaces with a breathtaking view of the island, it is indeed a place to remember.

We spent hours scouting around the village and fell in love with it.

Wedding in Syros

/ Catholic & Orthodox Ceremony /

Orthodox and Catholic communities give breath to the island. Hence the double ceremony that took place in Syros for our lovely couple. Evangela & Isidoros, chose the groom’s hometown to take their vows. In an atmosphere of peace, reverence and respect both Catholic and Orthodox ceremonies were carried out with utmost sentimentality. We shared laughter and tears, the couple’s joys and hopes. And then there was dance, there was singing and there was happiness to last a lifetime.

“It takes two to tango…”

We dedicate this quote to Evangelia, for reasons she alone will understand.

“The Tango is the ultimate communication between two people. It begins with an embrace, an initial sharing of affection, yet stresses individual balance. The mastering of one’s individual balance is what allows two bodies to dance as one, along with a technique that is clean and uncluttered, a form that is pure, a line that is classical and an elegance that is sublime.”

Miguel Angel Pla

And it always bur always, takes two to tango. The perfect two. Have a good life.

Having completed this journey, we were left richer and happier. Full of inspired images and beautiful feelings that will remain precious to us for ever and ever!

Wedding Photographers – Sifnos

Kostas and Sanem, their friends and colleagues from Geneva, their beautiful families from Turkey and Greece, travelled all the way to Sifnos, to join their lives, and share their love and happiness.

We, as their wedding photographers, shall never, ever forget any moment of this wedding, as we shall never forget these two very special people, a beautiful couple, their special families and a group of wonderful friends.

Photo shooting for their Wedding in Sifnos was more than an experience. It was fun, it was trust, that eventually ended up in a much-appreciated friendship. We can never stop a smile, or a gasp when we go over their album. Happiness is all that we shall always wish for them.
