Kathy & Joshua – Creative & Art Directed Prague Pre-Wedding

A wonderful couple who chose to experience the magical night time romance of Prague for their pre wedding portrait session.

For many couples from Asia, Prague is a gem that has rarely been explored. Most couples know about Paris, London and who can forget those wonderful locations closer to home in Asia. But Prague has been quietly winning over many couples who explore here. With increcible architecture, beautiful gardens and for those adventurous couples who brave the early wake up call – the magical night time romance of its gas lamp lit cobblestone streets always leaves a favorable impression.

For our latest couple, the very sweet and warm Kathy & Joshua – Prague was an experience they will never forget. The bonus: they were able to have pictures (real film) taken during their own portrait session with their antique cameras.

The day of…

We began their session at the riverside in hopes of having a dramatic sunrise. Though it was not as expected, it was still a wonderful experience as they were able to see first hand a romantic sunrise over the historic skyline of the Charles Bridge. They were all smiles as the sun quickly warmed up their bodies and gave them the neccessary energy to explore.

We did stop along the way for several wonderful locations that were picture perfect before heading to the Old Town Square where the historic Astronomical Clock is located. Kathy & Joshua were quite keen on having many images captured here as the medieval clock is such a unique icon of Prague. From here we explored the Old Town square before walking back towards Mala strana. One of their requested locations was a secluded spot over the city – which I always enjoy taking couples to. It is a rare respite from walking around as you can simply sit and enjoy the scenery down below.

Our last location The Vrtba Garden was where they changed in to a second outfit and brought out some vintage cameras. As these two are camera buffs I wanted to incorporate that aspect of their personalities.

Just as quickly as our day started it came to an end. But everyone was all smiles as we headed out from the garden.

Presented here is a wonderful morning these two will be able to relive over and over again thanks to these beautiful moments.

For adventurous couples who desire something truy magical we always recommend getting up early and having a pre wedding before dawn.

Zoe & Billy: pre dawn session

Looking for inspiration for your pre dawn pre wedding session in Prague? Look no further than our latest couple: introducing Zoe & Billy.

These two who had an unforgettable pre dawn session here in Prague. They are not only gorgeous, they are also a really sweet and fun couple. They wanted their pre wedding to capture aspects about their fun-filled personalities in addition to those very stylish must have ‘posed’ portraits.

The best way to have a session in Prague is to start early, before the sunrise if you wish to capture those beautiful & romantic night time portraits. These are the types of images you regularly see in the cinema.

As we had most of our locations all to ourselves, Zoe & Billy were able to really relax and soak up the atmosphere as they explored, laughed and hugged each other.

Our session started under the Charles Bridge under the gas lamps that evoke a bygone & historic era. After capturing some posed and natural style images it was time to change it up a bit.

It was fitting that as the sun started to break above the historic skyline these two picked a spot overlooking the Charles Bridge to watch as mother nature provided us with a stunning array of hues: everything from reddish pink to purple and blues. It was unforgettable.

After a few moments it was time to head up to the Charles Bridge where a crowd of people were already amassing with their tripods and cameras – and a few other couples too.

What follows on that beautiful day is simply this: two people very much in love exploring, laughing and enjoying one of the most beautiful days of their lives: their pre wedding in Prague.

And how did they enjoy it?

Kurt and his team are wonderful! =DDD 

My husband and I had a post wedding shooting in Prague for the pre-sunrise and sunrise till noon session in Oct which is the best time of the year with the golden yellow leaves.
