A sunrise & sunset pre wedding session in Prague with Alice & Mun

Alice & Mun are a fantastic couple who will be marrying in Singapore a few short weeks. Like many couples they were searching for something a bit different for their pre wedding session and as such they chose Prague. Prague is quickly becoming one of the top pre wedding destinations in not only Europe but the world.

What I enjoyed about Alice & Mun, how easy going and laid back they were to simply hang out with and capture as they explored this amazing city.

We started our session on the Charles Bridge before sunrise and followed a route that maximizes the possibilities for the best photos before finishing up at Prague Castle. After an afternoon break, a new hair style and a new look it was time to head out again for a late afternoon / sunset / evening session and we chose the stunning Vrtba Zahrada (Garden) for our start and then headed up to Prague Castle before finishing up at the Charles Bridge where this wonderful day had its start.

For couples who are really looking for the best in pre wedding photos in Prague this is simply the only way to enjoy the city. Very few tourists are out before sunrise, the wonderful sunrises & sunsets over the many spires of this historic city and a few beautifully crafted night time portraits and you have a collection of stunning images without the tourists. Truth is, this is the only way to explore this city. So if you are looking for the very best in pre wedding portrait sessions in Prague consider having a sunrise and sunset session. After all you deserve the best!

To Alice & Mun, thank you both very much for selecting my team and especially for introducing our services to you friends and family. I wish you both much love, happiness and future success as husband and wife. A big thanks to the crew: Cary, Kari, Zu and Eliska Matejkova (Hair & Makeup)

Prague Lifestyle Portrait Session / Amala & Emeka

Introducing one of our many gorgeous couples from this year: Amala & Emeka who hail from Nigeria.

They wanted a session that incorporated the best locations in Prague but without the hoards of tourists who over take this city daily and so a sunrise session was especially tailored for them.

Since they flew in from London the day before they had not had a chance to take in the sights yet and so we decided to start our session in front of one of the most beautiful buildings in Prague: the Praha Assurance building. This Art Nouveau masterpiece is one I highly recommend and visiting this building at dawn where the neon ‘Praha’ is lit is really a wonderful way to start off the day.

Led by our favorite hair & makeup artist Eliska who brought them down to where the crew was waiting, you can tell that this was a great starting point as Emeka & Amala were simply blown away by the atmosphere and the buildings beautiful & ornate facade.

Later we headed to the historic Charles Bridge and luckily there were not that many tourists. Seeing the sky change colors and the early morning light hit Prague Castle is truly a site to behold. The smile on Emeka’s face watching Amala take in the incredible atmosphere was worth the entire trip and she absolutely glowed standing there with a parasol in hand.

Our next location was the Old Town Square where luckily there were only a few stragglers left over from the previous nights partying. Without a doubt Old Town Square should truly be enjoyed at sunrise. Watching the sun break above the skyline of spires and especially when you walk hand in hand under Tyn Church with your partner in a nearly empty historic location as this is in a word – unforgettable.

But like all wonderful session they must come to an end and Emeka and Amala chose my personal favorite place – the Letna overlook for their final location. This truly is a stunning location as the city awakes and the sounds of trams, boats and many cars (too many actually) and pedestrians start their new day in one of the most beautiful cities in Europe.

After a few moments of soaking up the sunshine it was time to say our adieu’s and let Emeka & Amala explore this wonderful city on their own terms – hand in hand.

Kurt, first of all, let me thank you for the amazing pictures. Amala (thanks for the compliment by the way) and I are extremely excited… Once again thanks for giving us a wonderful gallery of pictures which we will enjoy for the rest of our lives.

A special thanks to my crew: Eliska (hair & makeup), Kari & Zu (lighting) – the best crew in Prague!

GWM featuring one of our favorite couples: Wayne & Graham

Pretty stoked about this as these two are truly outstanding guys and to be able to capture their post wedding portrait session and then have it featured in an international publication such as GWM is a pretty big deal.

So if you get a chance check out this publication featuring wonderful couples from around the world and you can also pick it up at the newsagent if you are in one of the cities it is sold it.

Also a very big thank you to Pink! A specialized boutique wedding agency that focuses not only LGBT but also the asian pre wedding market – this agency is really going to shake things up in the Prague market.

pre-wedding Prague: D&L vintage portraits

A fun couple who chose many of Prague’s favorite locations for their pre wedding portrait session. Though the weather was quite grey & gloomy and threatening to rain during our session, that did not stop Dudu & Leo (and their two friends) from having a great time exploring many of the popular locations for pre wedding portraits.

Though our session was supposedly a daylight session only, we ran a bit behind due to a hair & makeup change and ended up catching some truly beautiful portraits of them at the Old Town Square after sunset. My personal favorites in addition to the stunning vintage inspired portraits of them at the riverside: the horse and buggy that was parked behind them that added an old world ambience to their portraits. To be honest, there is nothing special like having beautiful memories captured at the Old Town Square on a quiet summer evening.

To Dudu & Leo, congratulations! I wish you both much love, happiness and prosperity in your new lives together as husband and wife.

PS: and from our happy couple:

Dear Kurt, It’s a wonderful experience to have you as our photographer. I think if any friends of mine would ask me for pre-wedding/ wedding photographer in Prague, I would have no hesitation to introduce you to them.

An engagement session with two gentlemen in Prague

Graham (left) and Wayne (right) are two incredible people who’ve faced their share of hardships. Graham, who lost a leg serving in Iraq, has been through a lot, but he’s unstoppable—always smiling, with a positivity that’s contagious. As someone who understands the challenges veterans face, I was especially excited to show them the beauty of Prague.

Graham had visited Prague before and fell in love with the city’s architecture and charm, so he knew it was the perfect place to celebrate with Wayne, his love and now husband. They traveled from San Francisco, bringing along their little dog, for this post-wedding portrait session—a heartfelt gift to Wayne.

On the day of their session, the city was bathed in a golden light, with spires glowing in the distance. We started at Petrin Hill, under the cherry blossoms—a spot made for romance. Then we wandered through Prague’s picturesque streets, ending at the iconic Charles Bridge at sunset.

It was truly a magical day, filled with laughter (and some very ‘kampy fun-filled moments’) and love.

Graham and Wayne, thank you for letting me capture these beautiful moments. Wishing you both endless love and happiness, and I can’t wait to welcome you back to Prague someday!

Prague pre wedding photography Enzo & Ray lifestyle session

A Charles Bridge marriage proposal and a special pre wedding portrait session in Prague with Enzo & Ray who traveled over from Hong Kong!

Not only did Ray have a truly wonderful trip and a pre wedding portrait session planned for his beautiful girlfriend Enzo, but he wanted to make it official. So on a very special & romantic evening under a rare Super Moon, Ray got down on one knee and proposed to Enzo on top of one of the most romantic places in Europe: The Charles Bridge.

Enzo was clearly in shock and with tears running down her cheeks she smiled and quickly said yes. As a former magazine photographer who traded in social reporting for capturing these wonderful sessions where people are having fun and enjoying their lives together – it is evenings like this that make this work all the more special. There are really no words that I can express to sum up my feelings of being invited to capture this wonderful moment in two very special peoples lives.

The following is a small sample of images form their collection that they chose. Hair & Makeup by the wonderful and talented Jitka Novotna. Lighting assistance provided by Cary Hubbs.

Enzo & Ray, I wish you both much happiness, success and luck in your new lives together as husband and wife. I look forward to one day catching up again (perhaps in Hong Kong) and I am especially pleased to hear how happy you two are with the results.

Some reflections from Ray & Enzo:

We are honored and thanks to Kurt to be our pre-wedding photographer and our witness of our Proposal in Prague. Special thanks for the advices and suggestions for the places of shootings, especially for the place and moment of the Proposal, the photos reflected our true expression during Proposal. Kurt is very professional for the whole shooting process, including the rundown, places and gestures, since we are no experience for taking pre-wedding photos and no ideas for the places of Prague before that. We love the results very much and our family and friends are appreciated for that as well! Furthermore, the price charged was reasonable which is within our budget and much cheaper than the team we found in Hong Kong! We do not hesitate to share our experience and recommend Kurt to our friends.

Thanks again for bringing the unforgettable experience in our life!

Best Wishes, Enzo & Ray, 6 April 2015

Prague marriage proposal: Jennifer & Frank / St. Vitus belltower portraits

A Prague marriage proposal: Jennifer & Frank / St. Vitus belltower portraits

Sometimes when it feels right, you just have to go with it. Frank planned a truly special & whirlwind European visit for his lovely girlfriend Jennifer. He also had a secret he was keeping from her, an engagement ring. The plan: fly to Paris, then catch a connecting flight to Prague where they were to be picked up by a chauffeur and quickly whisked straight to St. Vitus Cathedral – where a special tour was set up just in their honor. Talk about fast.

But sometimes things take an unexpected turn, flights can be delayed, traffic can be disrupted and the timeline simply too tight to pull off. But no worries, when it feels right it will work itself out in the end. Instead of having the cathedral tour, a different tour was organized at the famed St. Vitus bellower that was begun in 1396 and has overlooked the castle and the city down below ever since.

After all of that time traveling on the planes and rushing through was Jennifer really going to be up for walking up those 287 steps? After being dropped off at the front gate of the castle a visibly excited Jennifer and Frank was game, after all how often does one start a European vacation like this?

Though it was overcast and raining lightly that did not dampen their spirits as they took in the impressive views down below of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. To think that 24 hours earlier they were in the states. And then – the moment arrived. It was quick, quite a surprise, very tender and very special. As a photographer I really do hope these images capture that special time that Jennifer & Frank shared on that very special day in their lives here in Prague. Presented here are some of their favorite moments.

To Frank and Jennifer, it was an honor and a privilege, I wish both of you much love, happiness and success in your new lives together. It would be great catching up with the two of you again.
