For over two decades, Toronto based, international documentary wedding photographer Andreas Avdoulos has been chosen by private couples across cultures and continents to document their wedding celebrations, varying in scale from elaborate multi-day productions to very intimate gatherings of just family.

He’s documented several hundred weddings across locally in Toronto, across Canada, Italy, Greece, France, the Bahamas, and as far as Japan.

His personal approach to documentary wedding photography begins before your actual wedding day. By establishing a genuine connection early, he earns the kind of access that makes his photographs feel private, personal, relaxed, and a real reflection of the wedding experience.

Andreas’ role as your wedding photographer means he’s with you from the rehearsal dinner, right through to the last dance of the wedding day — and long after, through the editing and printing process he handles entirely himself.

Being invited to be a part of the inner circle of his clients lives is something he does not take lightly, and the process of photographing your wedding is a personal one, which is why he only accepts ten weddings each season, allowing him to provide the best possible service.

When you choose me to photograph your wedding, it’s moments like this that I seek out.

REMEMBERING THAT THE LAST TIME YOU HELD YOUR FATHER’S HAND LIKE THIS WAS WHEN YOU WERE A SMALL CHILD.

THE LONG HUG FROM YOUR BEST FRIEND THAT YOU’VE KNOWN SINCE GRADE ONE WAS THE BEST HUG YOU’VE EVER HAD FROM HER.

YOUR GRANDPARENTS ACTING LIKE THEY JUST FOUND THE LOVE OF THEIR LIFE ALL OVER AGAIN THAT NIGHT.

THE QUIRKY, UNEXPECTED, UNPLANNED AND UNCONVENTIONAL MOMENTS THAT HAPPENED WITHOUT YOU EVER KNOWING IT.

I seek out the beauty in the imperfect. The personal moments that matter the most, that can never be repeated, staged or planned.

PROFESSIONALLY, I AM A DOCUMENTARY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER. BUT I’M A FATHER, HUSBAND, AND HUMAN FIRST, AND THIS INFORMS WHAT I OBSERVE, HOW I REACT TO WHAT IS HAPPENING AROUND ME, AND ULTIMATELY WHAT MOMENTS I PHOTOGRAPH.

I RELY ON INTUITION, AND THE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE FROM HAVING PHOTOGRAPHED SO MANY WEDDINGS REPRESENTING A WIDE RANGE OF CULTURES AND TRADITIONS.

IF THIS IS WHAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR, LET’S TALK ABOUT YOUR WEDDING PLANS.
