Acclaimed Santa Cruz-based photographer Steve Kurtz has been shooting weddings professionally since 1970. Things have changed drastically since he began his career in wedding photography, yet one thing still hold true over the span of his career: quality, creativity and service are more important than cost for the majority of brides and grooms.

In this lesson, Steve provides an overview of the path he has taken, which has allowed him to be successful for such a long time.

This lesson features images from a recent wedding Steve shot and serve as a visual explanation of his tips and style of wedding photography. This is the first of a two part series on how to improve your brand and skills as a wedding photographer in today's market.
