Jen + Dennis traveled over from New York City for their stylish Prague pre wedding shoot

Prague pre wedding / Jen & Dennis: portrait session

There was no doubt that Jen & Dennis who traveled over from New York City were going to have a stunning session as they looked very much like models in their very stylish wedding attire. Plus, woman who wear the birdcage veil look quite sexy and Jen easily pulled this look off.

As we simply did not wish to be surrounded by the throngs of camera wielding tourists in the centre, the peaceful oasis of Prague Castle and its sumptuous gardens were our starting points. Jen & Dennis very much enjoyed the castle gardens and especially the breath taking views, in fact we probably could have stayed there all day long, but we had many places to visit on our tour.

An old tilt shift lens was used to capture the dreamy look of our super stylish & sexy couple at St. Vitus Cathedral and especially those beautiful portraits of them sitting overlooking Mala Strana as the last rays of light ebbed.

Later a quick walk down to Mala Strana for a very stylish outfit change was in order before heading out once more to capture Jen & Dennis enjoying other locations such as the Charles Bridge and of course our final destination – the Astronomical clock. It was in essence a truly beautiful day and evening. A wish or two was even made atop the Charles Bridge in a very historic spot and unlike the many others they knew how to make that wish come true 😉

What I really enjoyed about Jen & Denis besides their warm and fun personalities and seeing their selection of chosen images: images that are more natural, spontaneous and real. And the second best part? The feedback:

Hi Kurt. The results are just as you said. They are stunning without a doubt. Dennis and I want to thank you and your team for giving us a memorable experience and creating such gorgeous photos. Thank you so much again.

To Jen & Dennis, thank you once again for choosing my team for your pre wedding photography here in Prague. I wish you both much love, happiness and prosperity in your lives together.

— A big thank you to the crew: Cary for handling the lighting (and carrying all of that gear) and Jitka for doing a wonderful job on the hair & Makeup and yes, Martina for handling the office while I am always out.

Prague pre wedding / Yannes & Roy portrait session

Prague pre wedding / Yannes & Roy portrait session

We love working with super friendly people who are in love, getting married and who fit perfectly with our style and vision. Our new friends Yannes & Roy traveled over from Hong Kong to have a beautiful pre wedding portrait session with us. They were wonderful, brilliant, fun and easy going – just like us. Their only real concern, making sure there were not too many people in their images and they wanted a more natural look – which we also very much enjoy.

After meeting up, a course was outlined that took in the more green and quieter parts of the city such as the Castle Gardens, The Bellview palace, the Orangerie, a wonderful boat ride along the Vltava and of course the usual sites of Prague Castle and the Charles Bridge. As you can see it was a very laid back and fun session. Later after a quick hair & makeup change provided by Jitka Novotna it was time to head out once again to capture Yannes & Roy enjoying the Charles Bridge (where they made a wish that we believe will come true) and then their last stop at the stunning Astronomical Clock for a romantic kiss underneath.

A picture perfect day for a terrific couple. Thank you again Yannes & Roy and we hope to see you in Hong Kong very soon!

A big thank you to my assistant Zybnek who did a wonderful job. Hair & Makeup by the wonderful Jitka Novotna

Prague pre wedding / Jay & Ambrose / portrait session

One of my favorite and very cool couples from last year – the lovely Jay & Ambrose.

Jay & Ambrose traveled over from Hong Kong to have their pre-wedding portrait session in Prague on a very special day: May 1st. This is usually a day where the city is filled with protests, marches and counter protests. So not wanting to be a part of that we headed to the Holešovice theme park that has been a local attraction for many years.

It is always fun capturing people not being concerned with being photographed – and you cant go wrong with the many rides, the cotton candy and of course my favorite: the bumper cars.

Holešovice was the site of the 1891 World’s Fair that was opened by Archduke Karl Ludwig when this land was originally a part of the Austria-Hungarian empire. Though many of these buildings that were created for it are in poor shape it is still a wonderful location to visit and experience the grandeur of its past.

For many Prague lovers, Petrin Hill is the location for an annual rite: a kiss underneath its Cherry Blossom Trees. Funny enough we were discussing this exact tradition when I spied Antonin Kratchovil. For those who know photography Antonin is one of the worlds greatest photojournalist and so seeing him again (he was actually a judge at Czech Press Photo when I was awarded a 1^st Place for my News reporting)and photographing him participating in this Prague rite was a laugh. Not to be left out Jay & Ambrose stood under the very same tree and also participated in this wonderful ritual that many of us vow never to miss.

Later and after an outfit change, we jumped aboard David Cerny’s Baby’s for a quick snap as well as took in some other out of the way locations that make this city so special.

For many couples there is nothing more romantic than standing atop the world famous Charles Bridge and watching the sun set slowly behind Prague Castle – it is truly unforgettable.

To Jay & Ambrose, it was wonderful meeting the two of you as well as getting to know you a bit better. And the next time you two are here the round of Scotch is on me. BTW thanks for the brilliant book – he is one of my favorite authors!

Wishing you much love, happiness and prosperity in your new lives together as husband and wife!
