About

I’m Nikolas Polatos, a photographer and filmmaker based in Attica, Greece, with over 12 years of experience in visual storytelling.

I specialize in wedding photography and videography, as well as in portrait work that captures raw emotion and authenticity.

What truly inspires me is the ability to portray people with realism—to reveal expressions, emotions, and details they may have never seen in themselves. I’m fascinated by the subtle tension between light and shadow, and I strive to create images that feel intimate, cinematic, and emotionally resonant.

My visual style blends deep contrast, soft shadows, and a sense of refined minimalism—a combination that gives my work a moody, film-like atmosphere. Rather than staged perfection, I seek honest moments, told with the rhythm and sensitivity of a quiet film.

My approach is discreet but intentional. Through small gestures, natural light, and real emotions, I tell visual stories that are not only beautiful—but also meaningful.

If you’re looking for images that speak with soul and cinematic depth, I’d love to help tell your story.
