Session Details Mix and match multiple photo shoots for a truly custom experience. Sessions can be scheduled back to back or at different times to allow a change in hair and makeup. Studio Shoots are a great way to achieve a more fashion oriented style, or to capture that classic yearbook photo on a white background. Mini Outdoor Shoots can be the entire session, or can be a way to add another location that is more than a 15 minute drive from the location of another shoot. Outdoor Shoots and Complete Outdoor Shoots allow for two photo locations within a 15minute drive of each other. An example would be downtown Holland, and Holland State Park. Night Shoots are so much fun, and look amazing with the city lights. These are best during the summer months when it is still comfortably warm after dark. Starting at sunset can be a great way to capture both twilight and night photos. Payment for sessions is due at the time of booking, via cash, check or credit card . Session payments are not refundable or transferable; however sessions may be rescheduled within a month of the original date.

Orders After the photoshoot, we begin the process of selecting the best photos, and editing them for the best possible color and style. After two weeks, the photos are prestented in an online gallery and/or physical proof book. We prefer not to restrict you to ordering using complicated packages that may or may not meet your needs. Instead, you may order of whichever combination of photos and prints you desire. Our online ordering system makes this process near effortless. When your order is recieved, each photo is individually retouched for skin, stray hairs, or other distracting elements. We use the best professional lab in the area to ensure top notch quality for every order, and a fast delivery time. If you would rather handle your own printing, all the images from the photo session may be ordered on a flash drive for a flat rate of $400. If your print order exceeds $500, we will include the flash drive for free with your print order.
Frequently Asked Questions What equipment do you use? We shoot on full frame Canon cameras, currently the 5D Mark III and 5D Mark II. We use Canon prime lenses, and Canon L-Series zoom lenses. For off camera lighting, we use Paul C Buff and Elinchrom lights. Do you travel? We travel for free within an hour radius of Grand Rapids, Michigan. For photo shoots beyond that range, we estimate bare minimum travel charges on an individual basis to keep your shoot affordable. How far in advance do you book? Plan to book your photoshoot 1-2 months in advance. We may be able to accomodate short notice photo shoots, but no promises. How long have you been in business? Kyle Bultman Photography was established in 2006. How do I move forward to book Kyle Bultman Photography for my senior photos? Email kylebultman@gmail.com to inquire further or schedule your photo shoot. What time of day is best foy my session? For the best light, we try to schedule sessions to end a half hour before sunset, unless the goal is sunset pictures.
How soon will the photos be done? Expect to see the photos within three weeks, and you order to be fulfilled within two weeks of ordering. Is there an extra charge for blemish removal? This is included for every photo you order at no charge. Do you have a studio? Yes, we share a shooting space with Dan Johnson Photography in Grandville. Please note that this is only a shooting space booked by appointment only, not a retail storefront with regular open hours. What happens if it rains? Inclement weather can be a real drag, we will contact you the day of the photo shoot if unworkable weather is expected and offer 2-3 possible times to reschedule. Can we combine a senior session with a family session? Absolutely! This can be a great time to update your family photos. A half hour family session can be added for $50 immediately before or after any senior session. It must be at the same location as the senior session.
About Kyle My Start
My inspiration came at a young age when I discovered a love for photographing people. I used to annoy my friends by taking a million pictures of them. I was amazed by the rare candid photos that truly captured the beauty and essence of a person and became obsessed with creating more images like those. When I decided to turn my passion into a profession, I began a year long internship with a professional photographer and learned photo retouching, large format printing, and was given the opportunity to hone my photography skills at weddings and other photo sessions. The next year I became a full-time professional photographer and have not looked back since.
My Style
My creativity is always inspired by the amazing people I am able to work with. The consistent style that I have become known for is the strong use of color in my images. I tend toward using vivid colors while making sure they look as bright and bold in my photographs as they do in real life. One element that sets me apart is using studio lighting outdoors. By controlling the light, I am free to be creative in my choice of locations instead of being limited to using locations that naturally have ideal lighting. I tend to use simple natural posing so that my clients look comfortable and in their element. By keeping my photo sessions fun and relaxed, I am able to create an environment where a senior can themselves and let their personality come through.
My Story
I married my beautiful bride, Katie, 5 years ago; she works full-time helping manage the business side of Kyle Bultman Photography. We have two adorable rescued dogs, Pixel and Widget, and enjoy taking them hiking, mountain biking, and on rock climbing trips. I also enjoy writing, philosophy, video production, drumming and anything to do with aviation.
