About me
Hello there, I am Spyros and I love taking photos! I was born and raised in Greece but I am currently based in Amsterdam, Netherlands. I travel a lot so you may find me in every corner of the world.
The Way I See
I bought my first camera when I left Greece to study abroad, initially as a way to document that journey. Over time photography shifted from simple curiosity into a way of interpreting the world around me. More than a decade later the camera still stays with me wherever I go.
Street photography is where my work feels most alive. I love walking and observing how life unfolds on the streets, using my camera as a way to express everything I cannot say. I am particularly drawn to quiet contrasts and overlooked moments where tension emerges through strong color, unique characters and layered scenes. While my photography continues to evolve, it is constantly shaped by the places I live in and travel through.
Why Street Photography?
I love street photography because it allows me to reflect and analyze, to cut the noise around me and to focus on both movement and stillness at the same time. Through street photography I can share something about the world that no one else can…my own perspective.
Fun Fact
In the social media you will find me under the nickname dumspyrospero. It is wordplay of the latin phrase “dum spiro spero” which translates to “while I breathe, I hope”. As a person that has both struggled with and been intrigued by purpose and the meaning of life it is something that deeply resonates with me. That plus the fact that it rhymes with my name!
