Filippo's Destination Baptism at Evia - Greece
As a wedding and baptism photographer I have the opportunity to visit many hidden beauties of Greece! I am glad when I see couples and parents to be aware of the wedding and baptism not as a typical process but as a shared biomatic experience among them and their precious family members and friends. This is the way that the parents of Filippos thought and decide to make his baptism at Evia and their favorite chapel, Agia Kiriaki – Steni. Flowing trickles under the shadows of huge planes and grannies selling their traditional products were included in the scene! Little Filippos and his parents pleasure composed the beautiful scenery.

[…] I left the chapel of Agia Kyriaki in the village of Steni in Evia for last. This may not be in the Attica region, but it is only an hour away from Athens and well worth the experience offered by this church. Agia Kyriaki is essentially built into a cave. The extensive square outside the church is full of plane trees, a river runs just below and a picturesque bridge connects the church to the square. This idyllic setting is marked off by vendors selling traditional fare and there is a restaurant serving satisfactory food just next door. What the pictures cannot show, though, are the sounds of the birds, the flowing water and the whispering of the plane trees that round off the stage for a unique experience.
