Highly recommend

Kurtz portfolio and Instagram account really show his amazing skills in creating such beautiful photos. There was no doubt that his photos will turn out amazing. Kurtz photographed my engagement shoots and we absolutely love all the pictures. Kurtz also just sent us a sneak peak to our wedding, and oh boy I cannot stop looking at all the photos. They are beautiful. I can't wait to see the rest of the photos. Kurtz was also such a pleasure to work with. He is friendly, not pushy, and very calm. We highly recommend Kurtz.

Highly recommend Kurtz!

Kurtz was our photographer for our wedding and we could not have been happier with our experience and how our photos turned out. Through the whole process, Kurtz was very professional and responsive to all our questions. Close to our date, when a problem arose at one of our photo spots, Kurtz was very flexible and made sure we were able to get all the photos we wanted for our special day.

Kurtz's friendly and relaxed demeanor made us feel very comfortable. He told us exactly how to pose and where to stand, you can tell he knew what he was doing. Our photos turned out better than we could ever imagine! I would recommend Kurtz to everyone. Thank you again.

I would highly recommend Kurtz!

We were so excited to have Kurtz as our photographer! We had seen his work from a friends wedding and knew that we had to have him.

Kurtz lived up to and went beyond all our expectations. We booked an engagement session with him first that allowed us to feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Kurtz was their at the site early on that day to scout out photo locations and ready to take us there once we arrived. Not only did his pictures capture us quite perfectly, but there is a continual elegance of style you will see throughout his work.

On our wedding day we had outlined what we would like and everything ran so smoothly. Kurtz is organized, punctual, so easy and friendly to work with. The photographs from that day were stunning, beyond what I could’ve imagined. Kurtz documented the day perfectly and we are so grateful for that!

Kurtz has been professional all the way through this process, from the engagement session to wedding day, and after with the final photos. We have had so many compliments on our photographs! I would highly recommend Kurtz. We consider him our friend now and look forward to getting to work with him again.

Amazing work!

We just had our wedding and absolutely loved working with Kurtz. We are so happy that we chose him as our wedding photographer! We couldn't be happier with our engagement photos and wedding photos thus far!

Kurtz was amazing from start to finish, he is very professional and was super responsive to our emails and phone calls. One thing we really loved about working with Kurtz is that he is so friendly, easy going, and kind. He really made us feel at ease during our wedding day and also during our engagement session, we had so much fun! He also provided us with so many helpful tips that made the day go smoothly. Kurtz works in a very timely manner, and even provided us with "sneaks" the next day. We received a ton of compliment from our guests, saying that both him and his second shooter, Jesse were so professional and they weren't in the way at all.

Kurtz thank you so much for all your hard work, we look forward to working with you again the future.

Kurtz's work speaks for itself. His keen eye for detail and ability to play with light make him the perfect photographer for an outdoor wedding.

We first found Kurtz through Vineyard bride. We were immediately impressed by his portfolio. There is something very delicate and elegant about his work that draws you in.

As a vendor, Kurtz is very professional. He takes the time to get to know you as a couple and makes a conscious effort to ensure you feel comfortable in front of the camera.

Thank you so much Kurtz! Looking forward to having you shoot many more milestones to come!

Kurtz is an amazing, professional, kind hearted person. He did an absolute amazing job on the photography of our wedding and I could not be happier. I am hard to please and Kurtz goes above and beyond. He works very hard and takes his job very seriously and not to mention his talent. He is amazing at capturing special natural moments taking your photos to a much higher level than most photographers. It was a pleasure Kurtz having you as our "photo cowboy" for our special day, you are so talented. All the best, and you will be hearing from us soon as we would like a family session :). Also Kurtz is super fast with our photo turn around, only 3 weeks when most photographers told us 6 months for our wedding. Thank you Kirtz for bringing talent and value back into wedding photography.

Thank you so much Kurtz for making our wedding and reception memories so very special by giving us such a wonderful collection of photos to keep forever. Kurtz knew exactly how to get the right shots while keeping it fun. He is truly an amazing and talented photographer who is not only passionate about his work but he also has an eye for capturing pictures that are meaningful. His positive energy made us feel comfortable in front of the camera where normally both of us shy away and he was able to bring out the fun and joy we felt on our special day. The pictures came out beautifully and he was professional from the start. I highly recommend him for any special event.
