The Photographer
Hello, my name is Melina Tringis and I photograph families and couples in the luxurious lavender gardens of Cyherbia Botanical Park. Every year, when the lavender is in bloom from June until July, I get my custom made one size dresses ready for clients to wear during their photoshoot, with specially made flower crowns.
Through my work, my goal is to capture the feeling of serenity, love and togetherness and to deliver one of a kind series of photos my clients get to look back on for the rest of their life.
