Hi there! :)
2014 interview of me at lenspeople
I am a photographer & visual artist. I work with a very broad variety of photographic directions. I started with photography at an early age, and I now have decades of experience in the field.
I am half greek, half norwegian, and I live and work in Norway. Always ready to explore more challenging fields of my artisitic visions & ambitions.

The first time I came in contact with ioannis' work was after a tip by Josh (better known as JT) and the kind of approach in photographing people he found back in my work....:-) Might it be the respectful attitude and positive approach to people - I felt so complimented by after Jt's words- or the almost childish and very simple vision on creating a wonderful little world of his own, but each time a new image of Ioannis pops up is like a touch of blinding light appearing on the screen. A light of pure simplicity and love to the subject, skilled with a fantastic gift of playing with colours, shapes and atmospheres....a little dream to discover and cherish, time after time With my deepest respect and admiration, Frieda

Ioannis, is easily one of the nicest guys you'll meet on flickr. His work from his world travels speaks for itself, it's intimate, and always full of story and feeling. He's super talented, and a great inspiration. He's always willing to help, and give advice as well. Just an all round great guy. Happy to call him a friend! Hopefully get to shoot with him someday. Plus, just gotta see that hair in person lol.
Read lessA whole new discovery for me. He makes me jealous (with his Korean wife). lol. The thing is, Mr. Lelakis has a soul. I envy this great man. You see....you cant be a special photographer unless you have a VERY special mind. It didnt take me too long to realize what gift he has....gifted with one of the biggest hearts.
I like the work of Ioannis. His eye (and camera) captures the unique, the exotic, the unusual, and the usual from a different perspective ! Thank you, Ioannis, for inviting me into your world through your wonderful images!
