What a lovely couple these two were - and what a great start to 2020! Andrea and Constantinos were full of so much love and warmth for each other, and from the very first moment I turned up to start shooting this was so obvious. Many, many people turned up to both the couples’ allamata - their baby daughter looking gorgeous and their many friends and family. After two very fun and lively preparations, the couple met at the church of Ayios Georgios in Deftera, just outside Nicosia. After a cocktail party joined by literally hundreds of their friends, they partied on well into the night at fashionable city venue Royal Hall in the Old Town. Big thanks to the wonderful TimeFrame Productions who as always are a joy to work with. Here are some highlights from the day.
Claire and Udi Wedding Celebrations Part Two | Nicosia Wedding Photographer
Asked to come back to the house and shoot part two of the celebrations? Just TRY and keep me away. The couples’ house once again looked absolutely STUNNING and it was amazing to see so many familiar faces - old friends, aquatances and clients I’ve met over the years. The entertainment was out of this world and it didn’t take long for everyone to be up dancing and having an awesome time. What an incredible evening and soooooo much fun! Check out my favourite images of the night..

Claire and Udi's Wedding Celebrations Part One | Nicosia Wedding Photographer
I have known Claire for some years. She was one of the first people I met upon my arrival in Cyprus back in 2009. I have always known her as a warm, vibrant individual who cared deeply about her close family and friends and I was of course over the moon when she asked me to be her wedding photographer. It was talking with her over the phone during 2020 that I noticed the biggest change in her. I can honestly say I had never heard this lady so happy and joyful. Udi coming into her life certainly sparked something, and that was something very clear to see. Weddings are always joyous occasions but the weekend that I flew back to Cyprus to shoot their wedding and be an integral part of their celebrations, were for me something more than that. As I am unable to put what I saw and how I felt into words I shall as always let my images do the talking. I am so totally happy beyond words for Claire and Udi, and wish them a very long lifetime of happiness.

Theano and Andreas | Aes Ambelis Wedding Photography | Christine Constantine Photography
Theano and Andreas are a popular young couple from Nicosia. They approached me some time before the wedding to be their wedding photographer and I got on well with them and understood what they wanted from their photographer from the start. After an intimate and beautiful hilltop wedding ceremony they partied the night away at the stunning Aes Ambelis Winery.
The winery was founded in 1992, and has since produced wines of unique character and premium quality. Aes Ambelis is located on the slopes of Kalo Chorio Orinis in the Nicosia district, 28 km southwest of the capital. The winery is on two-levels and includes modern winemaking facilities, an underground cellar for barrel and bottle aging, as well as a tasting and reception hall. The wedding receptions I’ve photographed have always been in the summer and outside on the large terrace - overlooking the hills of that region.

Natassa and Leonidas' Cyprus Wedding | Metropolitan | Nicosia | Cyprus
Natassa and Leonidas tied the knot on a warm balmy day in late summer. Their preparations were a more relaxed affair than usual and I found myself shooting the intimacy of a clearly very close group of friends just hanging out with each other.
Natassa and Leonidas are a fun-loving and very popular couple and it was a total joy to shoot their wedding day. It was simply fabulous from start to finish. Natassa looked absolutely radiant, while eliciting a feeling of cool vintage glamour. Leo's style complemented Natassa's perfectly and the couple looked truly meant to be together.
Talented local videography team Cinesen, who are always a pleasure to work with, were there with me every step of the way capturing the magic.
Luckily we had time for a quick getaway to nearby Kykkos Park, where we were able to capture some nice relaxed shots of them both in a more earthy, natural surrounding.
On to Metropolitan, and just look at how much fun they both had on that dance floor! With a soundtrack supplied by popular local DJ Claudio, the couple and their friends danced the night away into the very early hours.
