You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You can also look at a picture for a second and think of it all your life.

I have photographed weddings at nearly every venue in Prague as well as many castles and chateaus throughout the Czech Republic or 'Czechia'. From large VIP 250 + person gala events to those smaller & intimate elopements. I am always humbled to be chosen to capture these unique experiences. The most unforgettable weddings? The ones where couples are able to devote some quality time to each other and enjoy the moment during their private wedding day portrait session.
Though I enjoy destination weddings - I am always quite happy to stay home in Prague. Want to know how you can have the best experience for your elopement or mini-wedding? Contact me as I would love to share.
Your wedding photographer for your Czech Destination Weddings
Not only do I regularly capture weddings in Prague but I also photograph beautiful weddings at many of the Czech Republic's finest wedding venues such as: Chateau Dobris (Dobříš Castle), Hluboka Castle, Troja Palace, Chateau Liblice, Chateau Havel, Chateau Mcely, Chateau Brandy's nad Labem, Sychrov Castle, Chateau Zbiroh, and many more wonderful Czech locations. You can find images from these locations throughout my wedding photography section. For couples who wish to see more location specific images please feel free to contact me to set up a time.
Though I offer set packages, the reality is most of my packages are customized to suit each clients needs. If you wish to discuss your needs or would like to inquire about having a specially created package please feel free to contact me.
The best thing about being a wedding & portrait photographer based in Prague? It is a relatively easy to travel around Europe. I have photographed weddings in: Ireland, N. Ireland, France, Germany, Greece, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, United Kingdom and Italy. I have also photographed weddings at the prestigious Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong as well as San Diego and Louisville (my hometown) in the United States.
Capturing gorgeous photos of couples having the time of their lives as well as showcasing those wonderful locations is something I do best. As the original 'Prague pre wedding photographer' - I have been capturing & creating these sessions since 2008. Not only do I take beautiful photos but we retouch them to the highest standard to ensure that when your images are displayed as large as possible there are no distractions or blemishes. With this focus on quality I am regularly called upon to create these beautiful sessions around Europe and yes, even in Hong Kong. So yes ladies, we offer a very high Hong Kong standard for your pre weddings and the prices reflects this accordingly. Rest assured there are no shortcuts and unlike my competitors we will work to ensure your images are perfect!

Telling your story in a unique way is what I do best. As each couple is unique I strive to create a session that suits their wishes and their style. For those who are not quite sure what they desire, I will work with you during the session to provide you with options and ideas. Some couples like the more posed look, while others wish to have a more organic & natural feel. Most simply wish to have a mixture of styles - after all styles changes.
As it is your session it is important for the two of you to feel comfortable and to really enjoy the moment and the creative process. I will not simply walk you around and pose you all day long - it just looks cheap and you definitely deserve a better experience.
At the end of the day my goal is to create a body of work that will blow your minds and leave you with images that you will happily pass down to the next generation. Images that you and your loved ones will cherish for the rest of your lives.

Looking for an event or gala event photographer in Prague? Do you need professionally created marketing & PR materials? As a professional who has been capturing many events for discerning clients worldwide I have the knowledge and expertise to capture literally anything that you need.

Are you considering Prague for your elopement or destination wedding? Unsure about which wedding planners you can trust? If you are in need of an honest and reputable wedding planner - I would be happy to assist you in finding the best fit. As an American with over 13 - years of international experience, I know which agencies you can put your trust in and which ones to stay away from. There is no quid pro quo.
The truth is some agencies are brilliant at having a stylish website . But they fail to offer the type of services that brides and grooms from Western Europe & N. America expect and deserve. While others may not have the flashy web presence - they make it for it by being honest, ethical and with a personalized approach that brides and grooms appreciate. It is quite daunting to searching for the right planner without having a second opinion - especially when the market is incredibly saturated.
If you wish to chat about your needs - please feel free to contact me. There is no obligation and I am always happy to assist couples in ensuring that they have the best wedding experience during their stay in Prague.
