Wedding & Editorial photographer in Greece – Irina Spiru
I am Irina Spiru, a wedding photographer in Greece working with international couples who choose this country for destination weddings, elopements and refined celebrations. My approach is soft, elegant, emotional and timeless, blending editorial style with authentic documentary moments. I photograph weddings across Greece, including Santorini, Mykonos and other carefully chosen locations, working with couples from the UK, the United States, Europe and Australia who value quality, experience and intention. I work as a wedding photographer in Greece for couples who value refined, intentional imagery.
As a professional wedding photographer
BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE
I graduated from the University of the Arts London, where I developed a strong visual foundation and a deep understanding of composition, light and storytelling. I began photographing weddings in 2012, and since then wedding photography has become the core of my professional work.
Over the years, I have worked on weddings of different scales and styles, from intimate destination celebrations to multi-day events, always with the same focus: clarity, emotion and visual coherence that remains relevant over time as a wedding photographer in Greece.
WORKING WITH INTERNATIONAL AND GREEK COUPLES
I work primarily with international couples who choose Greece for their destination weddings. Many of the weddings I photograph bring together families from different countries and cultures, with guests traveling from across the world to celebrate together.
Alongside this, I also photograph Greek couples who live abroad and choose to return to Greece to celebrate their wedding surrounded by family, tradition and long-established roots. Understanding this emotional context and cultural nuance is essential to telling the story honestly and respectfully when working as a wedding photographer in Greece.
MY PHOTOGRAPHIC APPROACH
My approach is considered, expressive and intentional. I work with attention to emotion, light, composition and movement, guiding when needed and allowing moments to unfold naturally when they carry their own energy.
With a background influenced by fashion and editorial photography, I combine refined aesthetics with real, unscripted moments. Every element matters: atmosphere, connection, posture, gesture and timing. Nothing is accidental and nothing is forced.
FROM WEDDINGS TO EDITORIAL AND COMMERCIAL WORK
Alongside weddings, my portfolio includes editorial portrait photography, engagement and pre-wedding sessions, fashion photography, model portfolios and interior photography in Greece. This broader professional experience strengthens my ability to work with structure, styling, space and visual narrative, and directly informs my wedding work.
Each genre sharpens a different skill, and together they create a balanced, versatile photographic language.
WHERE I WORK AND WHO I WORK WITH
I work across Greece with a focus on destinations that offer strong light, atmosphere and architectural character. My clients value discretion, professionalism and imagery that feels elevated yet personal. You can view selected wedding galleries here: https://www.cameradia.com
I am the right fit for couples who care about quality, emotional depth and a calm, experienced presence on their wedding day, and who want their photographs to feel honest, elegant and enduring.
LET’S CREATE SOMETHING MEANINGFUL
Wedding photography is not only about documenting an event, but about creating a visual record that carries meaning long after the day itself. If you are planning a wedding in Greece and are looking for photography that reflects real emotion, strong aesthetics and deep professional experience, I would be happy to hear about your plans.
PORTRAIT PHOTO SHOOT IN ATHENS
Portrait photoshoot in Athens is a natural extension of my wedding work. Athens offers much more than an urban backdrop — from historic streets to the sea, coastal cliffs and the Athens Riviera, where light, movement and open space create a perfect setting for expressive portraits.
Most portrait, couple and engagement photoshoots I photograph take place in Athens, especially along the coast. These sessions are designed for couples who want beautiful, natural images by the sea or in elegant outdoor locations, without turning the shoot into a destination production.
I work with international couples and local clients who choose Athens for engagement photoshoots, couple portraits and pre-wedding photography. These sessions are relaxed, time-efficient and visually refined, with a strong focus on light, composition and genuine connection.
While some pre-wedding or post-wedding photoshoots are part of a wedding experience, most portrait photoshoots in Athens are standalone sessions. They are created for couples who want strong, elegant imagery in a setting that combines sea, landscape and atmosphere — something only Athens can offer.
FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY IN GREECE
Fashion photography has always been an essential part of my professional background. I started my career working in fashion and editorial photography, and this experience continues to shape the way I see light, composition, styling and movement.
Fashion projects in Greece offer a unique creative freedom. They can take place in Athens, on the Greek islands or across multiple locations, depending on the concept. From contemporary urban settings to iconic island architecture in Santorini, Mykonos and other destinations, Greece provides a visually powerful backdrop for fashion campaigns and editorial stories.
Unlike short portrait sessions, fashion photography is a fully developed production process. It involves creative direction, stylists, models, makeup artists and carefully planned locations. These projects are built around concept, rhythm and visual coherence, allowing space for experimentation while maintaining a strong aesthetic structure.
I work on fashion projects for brands, designers and creative teams who are looking for photography that combines editorial sensibility with clear visual storytelling. Whether the shoot takes place in Athens or on the islands, my focus remains on delivering images that feel contemporary, intentional and visually strong, while fully respecting the creative vision of the project.
MODEL PORTFOLIO PHOTOGRAPHY IN ATHENS
I work as a model portfolio photographer in Athens, creating professional portfolios for models who need strong, versatile images for agencies, castings and personal promotion. Athens is an ideal base for model portfolio photography thanks to its variety of locations within a short distance — from clean urban settings and modern architecture to coastal backdrops along the Athens Riviera.
Most model portfolio shoots I photograph take place in Athens, allowing flexibility, efficiency and visual diversity without the need for travel. This makes it possible to create several distinct looks within one session while keeping the process focused and professional.
I photograph model portfolios for both new faces and experienced models, paying close attention to posing, expression, light and styling. My background in fashion photography helps models feel confident in front of the camera and results in images that look polished, contemporary and industry-relevant. Each portfolio is built with intention, clarity and long-term use in mind.
ARCHITECTURE, INTERIOR AND PROPERTY PHOTOGRAPHY IN GREECE
I photograph architecture, interiors and properties across Greece, working with private owners, designers, developers and hospitality projects. This includes villas, private houses, boutique hotels, yachts and exterior spaces where architecture, light and location work together.
My approach to architecture and property photography is focused on clarity, balance and atmosphere. I work carefully with natural light, perspective and composition to show space as it truly feels, while keeping the images clean, structured and visually strong. The goal is always to present a property in an elegant, realistic and appealing way, without distortion or unnecessary styling.
I photograph interiors and architecture both in Athens and on the Greek islands, adapting the visual language to each location. From contemporary city spaces to coastal villas and island architecture, each project is approached with attention to detail and respect for design. The final images are suitable for websites, publications, real estate listings and professional portfolios, with an emphasis on quality and longevity.
