Our History as a Wedding Photographer

We are 2 brothers, Manolis and Dimitris Mindrinos, born in 1977 and 1981 respectively. We live in Elliniko – Argyroupoli – Athens and we come from Santorini and Crete. Our story: In 1977, our father Giannis Mindrinos created a graphic arts studio, where we, being children have got the knowledge with the art of layouts, computers and various design programs.

In 1998, graduates of the Leica Academy of Photography and having knowledge of computers, we worked for several years in professional photography workshops and as assistants to wedding photographers.

In 2003 we created our own studio “Photographic”. Equipped with modern digital photography equipment and organized computer lab for image editing and modeling. At a time when the change from analog photography to digital was of particular concern to professional photographers, we creatively combined the advantage of familiarity with the electronic medium and the harmonious marriage of photography and graphic design.

His activities have expanded to Wedding Photography, Baptism Photography, Digital Albums, Panoramic Photos, Architectural Photography, Children’s Performances, etc.

In 2010 we moved the Studio “Photographic” to Argyroupoli, creating a beautiful and cozy space for wedding appointments and Photography Studio. Now focused on the field as a Wedding Photographer, we co-exist and collaborate with the cameraman Mr. Nikos Dimou and his team (www.iliketomovieit.gr). The undiminished interest of our customers proves our right choice to dedicate ourselves to this genre.

Now in the years 2019 we continue with 20 years of experience but also married with several small pleasant “problems” Odysseus, Melina and Giannakis to color our free time. Our space is easily accessible, located on the ground floor just 5 blocks from the Argyroupolis Metro, with easy parking. In 2015 we created our own Photobooth www.facebooth.gr

WHAT IS YOUR STYLE AS A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?

Our style in photography (wedding-christening) moves more towards a discreet recording with clear influences than reportage photography, with the images emphasizing spontaneous moments and emotions that unfold the story of the day. We will not fail to take the classic wedding photos with family-friends if you wish, because we do not consider them insignificant, at least in the long run their value increases.

What we consider very important is to create images respecting your personal moments. Human contact is especially important to us. We do not want you to choose us only because we offer you a competitive service, but because you feel that you are pleasantly communicating with us and you would like us to be the ones who will have the honor and pleasure to record your personal moments.

HOW MANY PHOTOS DO YOU TAKE?

We will take many photos so that we can have as many options as possible and a complete record of your day. Perhaps the most time consuming but also important process after the wedding and the baptism is the processing and selection of the photos since we are dealing with thousands of photos. We want to provide you with the essence as correctly and simply as possible, saving you from the trouble of countless photos.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?

We use CANON professional DSLR cameras.

ABOUT DIGITAL ALBUMS?

Digital albums are the most common way to present your photos. Our friction with the graphic design protected us from the so-called “childhood diseases” (use of many photos, effects, etc.) we prefer the minimal design because we believe that it helps to make your photos timeless but also to make them stand out more. We make the draft by our own choice and after we see it then we proceed to print it together.

There is a wide variety of Digital Wedding-Baptism Albums, Designs and Sizes to choose the one that suits you.

DO YOU GIVE THE ARCHIVES OF THE HIGH RESOLUTION PHOTOS (NEGATIVE)?

Yes of course you can get them, they are included in the price in all our packages. For your convenience we upload them to a server from where you and anyone else you want to select and download the photos from your wedding. Without procrastinating at all. The copyrights remain ours for promotional uses, eg internet, print media etc.

WHAT IS THE DELIVERY TIME AND HOW DO WE SEE THE SAMPLES?

In a couple of years and we will see…. beyond the fun the samples are usually ready in 2 weeks after your wedding. They could be the next day but we want to provide you (with processing) simply and clearly the essence, the distillate, saving you from the trouble of countless photos. The samples are uploaded to a personal server where you can view, share and order your favorite photos.

IS THERE A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER?

Yes and we consider it very important! He is someone we have worked with for many years and is knowledgeable about the subject. It helps to make our work faster, safer and more “relaxed”.

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH VIDEO SCIENCE?

We have partners that we can provide you with in our packages with your own supervision but also to suggest videographer for you to address yourself. Having the desired possible result that expresses you. Certainly the wedding-christening video has made great strides in recent years. Having risen to the prestige of couples has earned our respect.

HOW IS THE PAYMENT MADE?

The deposit is 20%, continuing just before your wedding we repeat them to remember them and you give an extra 50%. With the delivery of the agreed (eg album and video recording) it is paid. Caution in case of marriage annulment you do not return the deposit. To change the date we just check the availability together.
