Flash Poets Photography

Flash Poets (photographer Greg Liss) is based in Haarlem and treats wedding photography as poetry in light: I search for those unexpected, authentic moments that truly tell your story. As an experienced wedding photographer I don’t just record images — I transform the day into lasting memories, approaching each moment with a relaxed attitude, a touch of humour when appropriate, and an ongoing pursuit of natural light and truth. Why choose Flash Poets as your wedding photographer? My work focuses on documenting real emotions without forcing them. I believe a wedding reportage is most beautiful when it feels natural and unvarnished: from the secret laugh behind the best man’s back to the quiet moment between you during the couple shoot. I work quietly and unobtrusively so guests can enjoy themselves while I capture the candid moments that later prove most valuable. My experience in bridal photography ensures graceful, emotive portraits as well as honest documentary coverage. My approach is personal and calm. I want you to feel at ease — I blend in with the guests, offer reassurance, give subtle guidance when needed, and make the portrait session an enjoyable part of your day rather than a source of stress. For couples who wish, I also offer engagement sessions; these are ideal for getting to know one another before the big day and for creating relaxed images that complement the style of your wedding photography. With roots in Cape Town and formal training at the Orms Cape Town School of Photography, I combine an international perspective with local knowledge of Haarlem and its surroundings. That blend shows up in my compositions, the way I use light, and my attention to atmosphere and location. Whether you plan an intimate ceremony or a large celebration, my goal remains the same: wedding photos you will return to with pride. Every wedding is unique. Please get in touch to discuss how I can capture your day, which moments matter most to you, and what a bespoke wedding reportage could look like. Flash Poets is ready to document your story with respect, passion and creativity in Haarlem and the surrounding area.
