About

I’m a nomadic adventure-based wedding and engagement photographer living on the road full time. I travel with my wife, who's also a photographer and three dogs in a vintage airstream (check my photo album to take a peek) that can always be utilized in a shoot. I’ve been all over the continental US and internationally in countries such as Greece, Puerto Rico, Vietnam and Hawaii (come on, its kinda international ;) When it comes to your wedding, I can guarantee you'll feel like you hired a friend rather than a client. You won't feel pressured, nervous or uncomfortable with me shooting your big day. Follow my travels and weddings on Instagram via @briskventure & @knmweddings. Let's talk!

Reviews of Kyle Murphy Photography

Kyle was 100% the perfect photographer for our wedding. His best quality is that he can fit in with any group - whether it’s parents, grandparent, kids, or friends, Kyle instantly puts everyone at ease. It felt much more like a having a good friend hanging out while taking amazing photos. And he’s so quick to get great shots! None of that waiting around taking 10 of the same photo before getting it right. Kyle also has a natural talent for capturing fun and unique shots - even if that means paddling around in a boat in your wedding dress :) But trust me, whatever he suggests, go with it! Those ones are some of my favorite photos, and memories, from the day.
If you are looking for a photographer who is genuine, caring, and incredibly professional and competent from his extensive wedding experience, then look no further.
Thank you, Kyle!!

I met Kyle at another friends wedding and loved what he did so much I had to hire him for mine. He really listens to what you’re looking for and delivers.

Kyle went above and beyond for our wedding pictures. He makes you feel comfortable & he really knows what he is doing. He is fast & gets every picture perfect. I really don't know how he does it. Along with getting the best pictures you are paying for, you get a friend out of it. He is not only an AMAZING photographer, but an even more amazing human being. I would highly recommend him for any event, family photos, wedding...really anything. My husband and I couldn't be happier with all the pictures we got from the wedding we had in May of 2017. I hope to see him again soon for family pictures :-)

Kyle was one of the best and most memorable parts of our wedding. He not only took some of the most beautiful, hilarious, and touching photos, but he integrated into our party in the most incredible way. He was dancing with us on the dance floor, taking epic selfies, and adding so much to the joy, energy and excitement of our big day. I can't even count the number of people who asked where we found our photographer and how they could have him at their next party.

Kyle delivered the photos to us when he promised and we couldn't have asked for him to better capture the energy of our wedding. I've never seen photos with more character than the photos. All of our friends and family who saw the photos said the same.

Thank you, Kyle, for a wonderful and memorable wedding and photos that truly represented this amazing day and night!

This guy is a pro. He originally was just a guest at our wedding but ended up taking fabulous photos that we will cherish forever. He is a top-notch recommendation for any wedding or event that calls for professional photography. We were more than pleased with his work.

Kyle was awesome! The pictures turned out great and he helped out so much during our wedding. Not only did he take great pictures but he also helped out throughout our wedding day. For example, he lit candles when he saw that nobody had done that at the head table. He even handled my mom when she wanted to put the flowers in a weird place. (That way I didn't have to deal with her!) You will want him for your wedding!!

Kyle Murphy is a true professional, but, more importantly, a true artist. If you have seen his work then you are aware that he has a unique way of seeing locations and subjects which allows him to capture the true individual nature of his clients. His work is nothing short of spectacular. Also, Kyle is able to bring comfort and ease to the process and understand the importance of photographing the moments that capture the emotions of the day. His energy, kindness, and caring nature shines through the whole process of his sessions, and my husband and I will always go to Kyle Murphy for our photography needs. He has our highest recommendation!

Kyle was extremely flexible in his willingness to work with my fiancee and myself to get the pictures we wanted. This included extending our time at Red Rocks and over flowing into a second evening so we could get the right light for the pictures.

He had our pictures back to us within a couple of days via Dropbox. Some were even back within the day!

He is also very efficient with his sessions. He does not take a lot of pictures but instead focuses on getting quality shots each time.

I have recommended him to several friends for their engagement photos/wedding photos and they have been thrilled with his work as well.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
