GRANT AND KRISTINA’S DESTINATION WEDDING – ZANTE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of being flown out to the Greek island of Zante to photograph Grant and Kristina’s wedding. This so-called job of mine can be challenging at times. There’s long, unsociable hours and many of them sat staring at a computer. Saying that I can’t think of many jobs quite like it. It was sat on a boat in bright blue waters of the Mediterranean, just off the coast of Zante I came to the conclusion that my job actually is the best one I could wish for.
I spent three days in Zante for Grant and Kristina’s destination wedding. The day before the big day I was invited to join them on a boat trip. I politely accepted their invitation and took along my cameras.
On the day of the Zante wedding I met up with the groomsmen at their hotel (and waterpark) – Aqua Bay in the lovely little town of Tsilivi. Needless to say we had a good laugh with a bit of footy down at the beach before the boys hit a few of the water slides. It was a tad more chilled for Kristina and her bridesmaids. Plenty of pampering and bubbles before heading off on the short drive to their idyllic venue. Their ceremony and evening reception was held at the magnificant Porto Azzuro Beach Bar Restaurant which is located near the small town of Vasilikos, in the southeast of Zakynthos.
After a gorgeous wedding ceremony on the beach Grant, Kristina and their guests devoured delicious food, threw back plenty of alcohol and danced into the early hours. I had such an amazing couple of days with these guys. I cannot thank them enough for having me along to capture it for them. It was humbling being welcomed in by everybody and meeting some wonderful people. Grant and Kristina are so lucky to have such fantastic friends and family that made the journey with them.
It’s hard to put into words just how much fun I had at Grant and Kristina’s Zante wedding. I’m hoping that the photo’s that follow will do all of the talking for me.
