Toronto Documentary Photographer, Andreas Avdoulos.

Over two decades of documenting intimate, private, multicultural weddings across Canada and abroad.

I’ve photographed hundreds of weddings, ranging in scale from very intimate, private family gatherings with just a few guests, to complex multi-day events with hundreds in attendance.

In addition to photographing private family events and weddings, I produce photography for commercial and corporate clients, documenting their workplaces, people, and telling their story through candid, documentary style imagery.

“I booked Andreas as my photographer because of how comfortable and beautiful the women in his photos look.”

— Vanja Petkovich

“Andreas knows how to capture emotion. It’s very easy for someone to come and take a bunch of photos but to capture emotion takes a special eye and makes those photos come to life.”

— Michael Marzetti

“What we wanted from our wedding photos were natural moments, organic emotions, and a sense of nostalgia.”

— Nadia Carinci

“Having Andreas at our wedding was like having a family member there. He made everyone feel welcome and relaxed, and the photographs show that.”

Meet Andreas, Toronto Documentary Photographer

When documenting a wedding, my focus is on creating one-of-a-kind images that reflect your wedding day experience: the time spent with your closest friends and family, the traditions and cultural elements that make your wedding a truly one of a kind event.

I approach each wedding as an observer, capturing real, unplanned moments so that years from now, you can relive the day and tell your own stories through the photographs I make just for you.

I work in a documentary style, prioritizing observation over fabrication. I don’t chase trends, follow rigid shot lists, or turn your wedding into a big production. Aside from the family portraits, nothing is predetermined or planned out.

There’s beauty in imperfect, fleeting moments, and that’s where my attention stays.

I understand that being photographed can feel like a lot. Especially on such an emotional day. That’s why connection and trust are essential to my process.

To make the process of being photographed as relaxed as possible, I choose to work alone at each event I photograph. It's just me and a couple of cameras. This allows me to be blend in and be part of the wedding day, rather than be the focus or a distraction.

I photograph weddings in Toronto and surrounding areas with the mindset of being at an event for my own family: present, attentive, and respectful of the experience.

Families who choose to work with me value authenticity over posing and want to enjoy their day without the pressure often associated with “wedding photography” in the traditional sense.

I personally respond to all messages daily, so you’ll hear from me soon.

“We booked Andreas to shoot our wedding because I was so inspired by not only his work and portfolio but also his energy, kindness, and passion.”
