As the title states, this is a Do It Yourself wedding in Santorini. DIY Santorini wedding.
A quick description of this post… Kate and Aaron used the keywords Santorini photographer, at a well known wedding photography association!
Obviously, they picked me…..since I am posting their wedding portraits photographs!
How they met
Kate told me their story….
“About ten year ago, we met at the local restaurant I used to work at; we were a young age of 15. From there Aaron came in each week for about a month until he built up the courage to ask for my number and the rest is history.
Their trip in Greece – Europe
We decided to elope in Greece as we were already planning our first Europe trip and thought, why not get married there. The more we thought about planning a wedding, it just wasn’t quite for us. So here we are, exchanging our vows with one of the most picturesque backdrops in the world and couldn’t be happier.”
Aesthetics and style
Kate and Aaron is a lovely young couple of a high quality and stylish aesthetics!
They come from Australia and they are still in Greece at the moment having a wonderful time at Milos island.
Their decision to do a DIY Santorini wedding proved to be a stylish choice!
Island hopping
kate and Aaron, I wish you an absolutely amazing time at your staying in Greece. More photographs from your wedding and the Santorini wedding portraits photo tour will be uploaded on a later stage.

Videography
DIY Santorini wedding….Photographer and Videographer at the same time. Kate and Aaron informed me that although they give priority to photography, they would also appreciate some simple videography footage. Something within small budget. We agreed that I would be able to shoot some footage after completing the photographic session at each area we were visiting. I was pleased with the results, that you can see a bit further down.
Here is the link to their movie (videography)
When needs are simple and footage is needed only for the creation of a short movie (similar to this occasion), it is possible for me to act both as a wedding photographer and as a wedding videographer as well.

Did you know?
Did you know that the whole complex of Santorini islands is still an active volcano (the same as Méthana, Mílos and Nísiros) and probably the only volcano in the world whose crater is in the sea? The islands that form Santorini came into existence as a result of intensive volcanic activity; twelve huge eruptions occurred, one every 20,000 years approximately, and each violent eruption caused the collapse of the volcano’s central part creating a large crater (caldera). The volcano, however, managed to recreate itself over and over again.
The last big eruption occurred 3,600 years ago (during the Minoan Age), when igneous material (mainly ash, pumice and lava stones) covered the three islands (Thíra, Thirassiá and Asproníssi). The eruption destroyed the thriving local prehistoric civilization, evidence of which was found during the excavations of a settlement at Akrotíri. The solid material and gases emerging from the volcano’s interior created a huge “vacuum” underneath, causing the collapse of the central part and the creation of an enormous “pot” –today’s Caldera– with a size of 8×4 km and a depth of up to 400m below sea level.
