Simon & Jasmine Destination Wedding Portraits in Santorini

Very sporting, outgoing and adventurous, Simon and Jasmine came to me seeking something different. So after many meetings and discussions, they finally decided on Santorini. A place where blue is a theme colour of the city. The sky, the sea and most of the the buildings too. The signature white houses with blue skies were a must have and that's what caught their eyes. And since they were there, they have planned for a dive trip too!

The people were very friendly and the scenery was magnificent! The gorgeous sunset was for us to admire every evening. We woke up to catch the sunrise on the other side of the island  for the 1st day of the shoot. I took them to a small fishing jetty (a sight that not many people see and know. As fishing is also a major part of their livelihood) on the east side of the island.   We then drove to the main city of Fira while stopping along the way wherever its beautiful. We ended up stopping everywhere!

Sadly the 2nd half of the day started to be very cloudy so we decided to push everything to the next day. That proved to be the best decision made that trip! The sun was shining brightly the next day. We had some fun at the beach in the water. Took some cliff jumping and underwater shots. Totally AWESOME!!! That was indeed the highlight of the shoot.

Lunch naturally followed after and the 2nd session started after. This time we strolled down the famous town of Oia. This is where all the signature houses that are plastered on every post card. The day ended with a really stunning sunset. It think it was the best combination we could ever ask for. Thank you God for blessing us with the marvelous weather!
