THE BEST OF REPORTAGE

TESTIMONIALS

We found Jirka's portfolio completely by chance and his natural style won us over instantly. He was exceptionally nice over skype, we clicked nicely, which is always important, he gave us plenty of useful tips ahead of the wedding so that we could plan accordingly. Communication was superb, he was very punctual and easy going. We have been to many weddings as guests and some of the photographers can be a bit bossy or obtrusive. Jiri was the exact opposite, he managed to capture everything yet he was almost invisible, he was very nice and friendly to everyone, the portrait session was easy going and the photos are breathtaking! Jiri can really work with natural lighting, his photos breathe nostalgia, softness and fragility. He has the rare gift of capturing little moments and smiles among people. I love every single one of the photos he made:) We could not have chosen a better photographer for our big day. Thank you again!

Veronika & Martin

Our pre-wedding shooting and our wedding shooting with Jiri was fun, candid and rewarding. From the very first e-mail it was a pleasure to make plans with him and our initial impression of him being very reliable and uncomplicated was confirmed when we met him in person. We like his photos due to their naturalness and a hint of nostalgia which works perfectly for outdoor and vintage wedding just like ours. Jiri has a talent to be in the right place at the right time, without attracting attention. Thank you for capturing the emotions and special moments of our day – we are very happy with your work.

Johanna & Aaron

We came across Jiri after our previous photographer cancelled our booking. And we are now so grateful that the destiny crossed our paths. We just couldn’t have made a better choice. Jiri is an amazing photographer with an incredible sense of capturing the right moment and sense of detail. His photos look completely natural and spontaneous. Exactly the way we’d always wanted to have them. And with all that Jiri was completely unobtrusive so that we barely noticed he was there during our wedding day. Not mentioning the fact that all our guests had nothing but praise for him. To sum it up the result of his work is just wonderful. We are really delighted with his work and can definitely recommend him. If it wasn’t just once and forever, we’d definitely pick him again:) Thanks for everything.

LENKA & DANIEL

Since we have found Jiri's work and had a Skype call with him, we knew that he would be an amazing photographer, as well as a wonderful person to have at our wedding. Before the wedding, he has given us a lot of useful tips, for example how to position our outdoor wedding ceremony for the best experience and light. During the day, he was at every important event and took so many amazing photos, as well as captured every moment and emotion that we missed during the day. He was very professional and we have had a great day. After the wedding, he delivered the photos very quickly and kept us well informed about when our full-res photos will arrive. We have truly enjoyed meeting Jiri and we are ever so happy that we have invited him to our wedding as a photographer.

MÍŠA &MICHAL

When we stumbled upon Jiri’s work, it instantly won us over. Candid shots with sense of detail underlined by naturally looking postprocessing, that was the thing that spoke to us. We didn’t hesitate, and got in touch with him. He gave us some useful tips on the ideal portrait session timing and lighting which we didn’t even know we needed to take into consideration. On the wedding day Jiri was very professional, unobtrusive, appropriately dressed and accommodating. He photographed with pleasure anything we and our guests asked him for. Eventually we enjoyed the portrait session a lot and felt very relaxed. We were all blown away by his photos. He managed to capture moments we didn’t even notice during our wedding day. We are very grateful that Jiri was able to catch situations we couldn’t witness. We’d like to recommend him to anyone. Thanks again, Jiri!
