Snow & Hein: lifestyle

Our latest couple Snow & Hein from Myanmar who chose Prague for a small, lifestyle session. Currently residing in the US where they are finishing up their university studies, Snow & Hein were in Prague for a few days and decided that the gorgeous city was picture perfect for a small engagement session.

They had already visited the many tourist heavy sites and asked if I knew of a location that would be less crowded. My first thought was of course Ledebour garden – it is in reality one of the most beautiful locations in Prague to be photographed in. Of course there is that Commercial Photography admittance fee, but the reality is – Ledeburska is a peaceful oasis of calm overlooking the city and is gorgeous.

So on one very sunny & hot summer day we did just that, we traveled up and around and explored the many hidden gems this garden has to offer. And the result – as they said themselves GORGEOUS!

Presented here is a small sampling of two people in love exploring a unique cultural landmark in one of the most gorgeous cities in the world: Prague!

A Winter Destination Wedding At The Historic Troja Chateau

A beautiful destination wedding at the Troja Chateau featuring the lovely Helen and her husband Cesar who traveled over from Lebanon to have their dream wedding in Prague. Beautiful, natural-styled wedding photography captured not only at the Troja Chateau but at many of Prague’s iconic locations.

Not only were these two an absolute joy to capture on their visually stunning and happy wedding day but their close family & friends who joined them made it all come together. It was truly unforgettable.

And the beautiful bride left me this wonderful review:

Kurt Vinion was the best decision I made during the entire wedding planning process.. You are simply FANTASTIC!! came up with great-looking unique photos ? thank you for capturing our big day and making it look so effortless, your dedication and precision to work is what matters!

an engagement session in Prague with A&P (USA)

Introducing our very cute & fun couple Andrey & Phillip who live in sunny Los Angeles. They are good friends with a couple whose engagement portrait session we captured a few years back at Prague Castle. As Andrey & Phillip were going to be in Prague for a few days they contacted us and inquired if we could create a session for them. Unlike our usual portrait sessions where we work with a crew of assistants, hair & makeup and at times a full video crew, they wanted a more toned down, simplistic approach: just the two of them and myself. I must admit, I very much enjoy these very simple ‘natural light sessions’ as couples are far more relaxed when they feel that no one is watching them or fussing about with their hair & makeup all the time. Plus the great thing about Andrey & Phillip, they know how to have a great time in front of the camera.

What follows is a wonderful morning of two people in love exploring the sites of a beautiful city.

I am often asked: do I ever tire of photographing the same locations in Prague? The truth is, it is not about the locations as it is about sharing & capturing couples who are experiencing this city for the first time. The bonus: capturing those beautiful, intimate moments shared between. That is what I enjoy best.

To Andrey & Phillip I hope that when you view these images (hanging on your walls, or presented in a beautiful designer book) you relive that special time here in Prague.

pre wedding Prague – R&A (USA) sunrise & sunset portraits

I love this session. I really do. Rose & Alpha are from the great state of New Jersey in the USA who were looking for a mixture of styles on their pre-wedding portrait session in Prague. Not too staged, not too romantic, never boring, just a simple, fun, spontaneous and yes, a mixture of incredible locations for their pre-wedding. They danced, they kissed, they laughed ( a lot) and they shared truly wonderful, unforgettable moments. Everything was perfect (well, except for that bit of rain, and ok, the cold morning air before the sun was supposed to come up, and well ok, the sunrise was a bit of a let down – in fact, it was gray for awhile – too long). Ok, so yeah, the weather was truly a drag, but these two are in love and a little rain is not going to ruin their session and from having a kick ass time.

As you can imagine every photographer in the world is traveling to the Prague and trying to capture this city in its most amazing light and well, sometimes it simply does not happen, but with a bit of flair and a kick ass lighting crew any situation can be made better and every couple will look amazing – even if the weather is not. Our crew came through, the light came through in the evening (sunrise & sunset sessions are the way to go) and Rose & Alpha were floored, happy, ecstatic and they will have a crazy fun slide show that incorporates their wonderful time in this incredible city.

Here is a small collection of the many, many images captured, lovingly enhanced, colored, retouched. Images that will be shared and cherished with family & friends. Thanks to the fantastic, fun and very cool Rose & Alpha for allowing us to share this beautiful, fun & fantastic pre-wedding session.
