FAQ's
How can we reserve our date?
Once you have sent your inquiry via our Contact Form and we have discussed your date and events, and you’ve decide to book us, we will send you a contract for you to review and sign. You will need to reserve your date with a 50% non-refundable retainer fee which will be deducted from your final balance. The last payment will be 1 month before your wedding date - though in some situations we can also receive the final payment on the day of. This is standard with photographers and nothing to worry about.
Our wedding planner does not recommend you - any reason why not?
Great question. Truth is, in 2010 I simply had to change my business strategy one that does not rely on local wedding planners. At the time I was paying only 15% commission and was told by 2 of the largest wedding agencies in Prague that I needed to pay more (up to 33% in one agencies case) if I was to continue working with them. This pay to play scheme is fantastic for the agencies but it is seriously detrimental if you are running a legitimate full-time photography business. I am recommended by many wonderful agencies around the world and yes a few here - who value my hard work, my vision, professionalism and my attentiveness to my clients needs. But don't take my work for it, you can read some of my clients testimonials here.
Do you shoot destination weddings?
Absolutely! I have photographed weddings in: Austria, China, Czech Republic, England, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Malta, N. Ireland, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia and yes, several states in the United States.
How many images do you deliver?
There are many factors that will affect the amount of images delivered. This depends on how many hours you have booked us for, how much detail you have as far as decor and different events you have during the reception. But usually for an 8 hour wedding it is 400+ digital images.
We’ve never done any photos together and we are really awkward in front of the camera, will our photos still end up looking awesome like the rest of your portfolio?
Our portfolio consists of real couples – there are no models in our portfolio. Our first job is to make sure you feel comfortable with each other in front of the camera. We will prompt and direct you in order to get those wonderful candid and relaxed looks. And no worries, I can be pretty corny so joking around with you to get your ‘real laugh’, is a part of the process. By the end of it, you will feel great about your photos and have a different perspective on working with a professional photographer.
What do you shoot with and do you bring your own lighting equipment?
I shoot Canon and full frame cameras and have a back up for my backups (hence my lighting guy who is also carrying a full kit of backup gear). Fast lenses from Canon (14, 24, 35, 50, 85, 135, 70-200) and we use video lights and speedlites when we need to in dark lighting situations. Although having great equipment is important, we pride ourselves in the ability to concentrate on each couple and help them get comfortable in order to achieve those great results!
Will I get a video of the full ceremony?
No, unless you have upgraded your package to include a video package. Please keep in mind that there are two kinds of videographers; those who shoot reportages and those who also will wish to create a highlights video where they are art directing and will need valuable one on one time with the two of you. The key is to understand what kind of video you wish to have. We can also assist you in finding the perfect match for your wedding day video needs as we have worked with nearly every reputable videographer in Prague.

Carrie & Matt (USA)
Kurt's work is more than capturing the beauty of an individual but revealing the inner dynamic of a relationship. After looking through the pictures, my husband and I can truly say,Yeah...That's really us but more gorgeous!
Our friends and family were amazed by his work, that's including the photography savvy geeks and seasoned graphic designers.
You Rock Kurt!
Sam (wedding photographer) & Andy (UK)
I must be honest and say there is no way I can in any way critique the images as perhaps I am too emotionally involved.
I just love them. What I love most is that you have really captured the day and the way Andrew and I were feeling
and this is priceless!
Sherri (wedding photographer) & Matt
Kurt is an astounding photographer and is one of the best in the world. I highly recommend him as he was also my wedding photographer and I admire him greatly in my profession as a photographer as well.
Kurt is the best of the best!
