The wedding
Andrea and Jamie, a U.S. couple that had their wedding at Santorini.
This is a swift and fun wedding that took place at Firostefani area, at Santorini’s Caldera with the wonderful light and the amazing and unique landscape.
Some folklore and ethnic, traditional Greek vibes were noticeable at this wedding.
Most of guests are Americans and the few Greek guests ended up «teaching» syrtaki and other traditional Greek dances at the new married couple and their «guests».
Andrea and Jamie honored me by choosing me as their photographer for their special day!

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.
