The People's Photographer
I'm Evagoras Mandrides, and I've been photographing weddings since 2004. I'm Greek Cypriot and I speak Greek, and I've now photographed more than 600 weddings. Most of my Birmingham clients are Greek Cypriot families.
I specialise in Greek Cypriot and Greek Orthodox weddings, from the stolisma to the last dance. I've photographed at Holy Trinity and St Luke and at St Andrew's Cathedral in Birmingham, Holy Transfiguration in Coventry, St Nicholas and St Xenophon in Leicester and Virgin Mary Eleousa in Nottingham. Flash is almost always allowed in Greek Orthodox churches, so I can photograph the whole service. If I haven't met your priest, I introduce myself before the service.
For a Birmingham or Midlands wedding, I always stay the night before, so traffic on the day is never a worry and I'm there in good time.
I arrive about 30 minutes before the service for family photos, photograph the whole service, then take about 30 minutes of portraits at the church and about 30 minutes at your venue. If you'd like me to stay on, extra coverage (2 to 5 hours) can include the meal, the speeches, the cake cutting and the dancing.
I cover Birmingham and the whole of the Midlands: Solihull, Sutton Coldfield and Wolverhampton, Coventry, Kenilworth and Warwick, and across to Leicester, Nottingham and Derby.

Check your date, get your quote and fill in the booking form. Your date is secured once the booking fee is paid, and if you need time to decide, I'll hold the date for 2 weeks.
Tell me your date and where you're getting married, then see your price as you choose your options. No obligation, and nothing is booked until you say so.
