Food Photography
Seeing food as an art expression gives you the choice, the joy to play with the impression of the food through the eyes. If the pleasure of the eyes comes before the pleasure of the taste, it has an effect on the taste.









Portrait, Commercial & Headshot photographer Athens Greece
Observing people, I am amazed by the many different expressions a human being can have. Ηow unique each one of us is as we express our own culture, language, family, country, profession, and way of life. Ιt is what i find most fascinating as i endeavour to capture it in photographs.

My approach to photography is rooted in storytelling and careful observation rather than performance. I am interested in what feels real, in the details that reveal identity and in the moments where personality surfaces naturally. Influenced by documentary traditions and contemporary portraiture, I aim to create images that are honest, timeless, and emotionally precise—photographs that do not simply describe how someone looks, but suggest who they are. With years of experience working across editorial, commercial, and personal projects, I treat every subject as a singular story rather than a repetition of a formula. Each collaboration is different, because each person is different. My goal is always the same: to create portraits that respect individuality, honor complexity, and preserve a small, truthful fragment of human presence in time.Dimitris Vlaikos, Photographer

The cloudy sky and the really good quality daylight helped us a lot…
Tacos of The Seas Luxury Yacht photography
Lifestyle photos in yacht photography gives the appropriate understanding to the viewer of the interior and exterior spaces of each yacht. A series with models like a young couple, or a family could give the feeling and show the yacht activities that the guest could enjoy during each trip.
In this yacht photography season for Tacos of The Seas, me and my crew, we took the yacht from Athens-Piraeus and spend a day round to the saronic gulf, capturing 2 models and their daily life in the yacht.
