There is something truly magical about photographing a couple after sunset. The soft evening light, warm atmosphere, and quiet beauty of Crete create the perfect setting for romantic photographs.

Yassine and Barbara chose the beautiful King Minos Palace in Hersonissos, Crete, for their night photoshoot. The resort, surrounded by Mediterranean gardens and overlooking the sea, provided a wonderful backdrop for their evening love story.

Instead of a traditional daytime session, we focused on the atmosphere of the night — elegant portraits, intimate moments, and natural interactions between the couple. The combination of the resort's architecture, lights, and the darkness of the Cretan evening gave the photographs a cinematic and sophisticated feeling.

As a photographer and videographer in Crete, I always try to create images that feel natural and emotional rather than overly posed. With Yassine and Barbara, the result was a beautiful collection of romantic night portraits that capture not only how they looked, but also the connection between them.

Crete is full of incredible locations for couples' photoshoots, and sometimes the most beautiful memories are created after the sun goes down. ✨🇬🇷

Some love stories are best told by the sea, with nothing but warm light, gentle waves, and two people completely lost in each other.

Tom and Julia were a beautiful couple I had the pleasure of photographing near Rethymno, Crete. We met by the coast just outside the city and spent the evening creating a relaxed and natural Love Story session by the sea.

As the sun slowly moved toward the horizon, the light became softer and warmer, creating the perfect atmosphere for romantic photographs. We walked along the shore, talked, laughed, and simply enjoyed the moment together.

I always love photographing couples in this kind of natural environment, where there is no need for complicated poses. The connection between two people, the sea, the sunset, and genuine emotions are more than enough.

Tom and Julia's session turned into a beautiful collection of warm, intimate, and joyful memories from their time in Crete.

Here are a few of my favorite photographs from their sunset Love Story in Rethymno. 

When Ray reached out to plan a surprise proposal for Alexandra during their Mediterranean getaway, the goal was simple: create an unforgettable, romantic moment and capture every emotion as it unfolded.

The serene, golden shores of Gerani, right in front of the luxury Myrion Beach Resort & Spa in Chania, provided the ultimate backdrop. With the soft sound of Aegean waves crashing nearby and the warm evening light settling over the coast, Ray dropped to one knee. Alexandra’s genuine reaction—pure delight, tears, and a glowing smile—made for an extraordinary set of images.

Following the big "Yes!", we took a relaxed couple’s session along the shoreline, making full use of Crete’s stunning coastal light and the modern, refined ambiance of the resort.

Planning Your Own Proposal in Crete?

If you're dreaming of proposing in Chania or anywhere in Crete, here are a few quick tips to keep in mind:

-Timing is Everything: Aim for the hour right before sunset (the "golden hour") for soft, flattering skin tones and rich colors.

-Choose the Right Spot: Coastal luxury resorts like Myrion Beach Resort & Spa offer privacy, convenience, and stunning natural backdrops.

-Keep It Natural: The best proposal photos come from genuine emotions—just focus on each other, and let your photographer handle the rest behind the lens.

There is something truly special about intimate weddings. With fewer guests and only the closest people around, every moment feels more personal, emotional, and genuine.

Cecilie and Alexander chose to celebrate their wedding surrounded by their closest family and friends at a beautiful villa near Rethymno, Crete. 🇬🇷

The day was filled with warm emotions, heartfelt smiles, and those little moments that make a wedding unforgettable. Away from the crowds, they could simply enjoy being together and share this important chapter of their lives with the people who mean the most to them.

The beautiful Cretan landscape created the perfect setting for their celebration. The villa, the Mediterranean atmosphere, and the natural beauty of the island made the day feel relaxed and timeless.

It was a small wedding, but full of big emotions — a celebration of love, family, friendship, and the beginning of a new journey together.

Sometimes, the most intimate celebrations create the most unforgettable memories. 🤍

Some wedding days are special because of the people, while others are made even more unforgettable by the place. For Price and Hana, their wedding in Crete brought these two elements together perfectly.

This young couple from the United States chose the beautiful Sea View by En Kipo in Stalos, near Chania — an exceptional wedding venue set on a green hillside overlooking the endless blue of the Mediterranean. The venue is especially magical during sunset, when the sea, sky and warm evening light create an incredible natural backdrop.

I had the pleasure of being there as their wedding photographer, capturing the emotions, details and spontaneous moments throughout their celebration. I also filmed their wedding ceremony, creating a visual memory that allows them to relive those precious moments again and again.

From the anticipation before the ceremony to the emotions during the vows, every moment was filled with genuine love and happiness. The combination of the stunning location, beautiful light and Price and Hana’s connection resulted in a collection of photographs that I absolutely loved creating.

Sea View by En Kipo is a wonderful setting for a destination wedding in Crete, offering privacy, panoramic sea views and a romantic atmosphere that naturally lends itself to beautiful wedding photography. The venue can accommodate ceremonies and receptions for up to 120 guests.

For me, the best wedding photographs are not simply about beautiful poses. They are about capturing the feeling of the day — the laughter, the nervous excitement, the tears, the embraces and those little moments that might otherwise disappear with time.

Price and Hana’s wedding was full of exactly those moments, and I’m very happy to have been there to preserve them in photographs and film.

Congratulations, Price & Hana! May your story together be as beautiful as the day you began it in Crete.

Some proposals are simply unforgettable. Dorian & Molly’s was one of those beautiful moments filled with love, anticipation, and the magic of Crete.

In a romantic location near Chania, we found a small hill overlooking the endless sea — the perfect setting for a surprise proposal at sunset. We created a cozy private picnic with champagne, fresh fruits, and delicious sweets, surrounded by the warm colors of the evening sky.

As the sun slowly disappeared beyond the horizon, Dorian got down on one knee and asked Molly to marry him. Her reaction made the whole moment even more special — pure emotion, happiness, and love.

I had the pleasure of capturing their story through both photography and video, preserving not only the beautiful views and details of the picnic, but most importantly, the emotions of a moment they will remember for the rest of their lives.

A sunset, the sea, champagne, and two people beginning a new chapter together — a truly unforgettable proposal in Crete.

Pauli & Mark began a beautiful new chapter on the shores of Georgioupoli, Crete.

Mark chose the quiet magic of sunrise to ask Pauli the most important question of his life. As the first light appeared over the sea, he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him.

A simple, intimate moment filled with emotion — and the beginning of their journey toward a new family and a life together.

Some love stories begin with a question. This one began at sunrise.

There is something truly special about capturing family moments by the sea. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a wonderful family—mom, dad, their sweet daughter, and adventurous little son—along the stunning coastline of Chania.

As the late afternoon sun painted the Aegean sky in golden hues, we let the children play freely, chasing waves and running through the warm sand. Instead of stiff poses, we focused on genuine connections: giggles shared between siblings, gentle hugs from mom, and playful moments with dad.

The sound of crashing waves provided the perfect backdrop for a collection of candid, joyful portraits that this family can treasure for a lifetime.

“The best family photos aren’t just pictures—they are memories you can feel every time you look at them.”

Take a look at some of my favorite highlights from our golden hour session below!

Sometimes, a single photo shoot tells more than one story. When Stefano and Lotta traveled from Germany to the beautiful coast of Rethymno, Crete, Lotta thought she was simply stepping into a maternity session. Expecting their first child, she was excited to capture memories of her baby bump along the waves, holding the sweet ultrasound scan of their future little one against the Cretan sea.

Little did she know, Stefano had a secret plan up his sleeve.

A Maternity Shoot with a Twist

As the afternoon light softened over the Aegean Sea, we began capturing gentle, timeless moments of the glowing couple. Between laughing, walking along the shoreline, and sharing quiet moments together, Stefano saw his opportunity.
Right in the middle of our session, with the sea breeze and waves around us, he reached into his pocket, dropped to one knee, and asked Lotta to marry him.

The sheer surprise and joy on Lotta’s face were priceless. What started as a celebratory maternity shoot instantly transformed into a unforgettable proposal and love story all in one.

Capturing Magic on the Coast of Crete

It was an incredible honor to document this triple-milestone moment for Stefano and Lotta—a celebration of their love, their upcoming addition to the family, and their engagement. The emotion was completely genuine, making every frame feel effortlessly warm and real.
Thank you, Stefano and Lotta, for trusting me with such an important chapter of your lives. Wishing you endless happiness, a smooth journey into parenthood, and a lifetime of love together!

There are few places in the world as magical for a marriage proposal as the island of Crete. With its dramatic coastlines, sparkling turquoise waters, and timeless Mediterranean charm, it offers a backdrop that turns special moments into lifelong memories. Recently, our team had the absolute pleasure of planning and capturing a dream proposal for Radovan and Andjela in the picturesque coastal town of Agios Nikolaos.

Designing the Perfect Seaside Setup

Radovan wanted to create a moment that was intimate, elegant, and completely unexpected. To make the vision come alive, our team designed a luxury beach picnic right along the rocky shore of Agios Nikolaos.

We arranged a cozy setting featuring soft cushions, delicate white linens, fresh red roses, local fruits, and chilled champagne ready for a celebratory toast. Every detail was tailored to blend seamlessly with the natural beauty of the Cretan landscape.

The Proposal Moment

As the sun began to cast a warm golden light over the sea, Radovan led Andjela to the hidden spot. Surprised by the romantic setup, she was already moved before he even got down on one knee. When he pulled out the ring and asked her to marry him, the answer was a joyous, emotional "Yes!"

Being there to document these raw, unfiltered emotions with both photo and video is why we love what we do. From the quiet anticipation before her arrival to the celebratory champagne toast right after, every second was filled with magic.
