ABOUT KIM
From an early age, I've been fascinated by storytelling. I'd spend hours writing silly short stories and looking at old photographs my grandparents collected over the years. My journey into photography started during my time living in Hawaii. The island was so beautiful that I felt compelled to teach myself photography, which eventually led me to buy my first digital camera.
Over the years, I've shifted my focus from landscape photography to wedding and portrait photography. The opportunity to work with people and tell their stories through photographs is something that I find incredibly inspiring and life-giving. It brings me immense joy to play a part in documenting special moments for people to cherish in the years to come.

Some things I hold near and dear to my heart: Jesus, my husband, our cat Zazu and anyone willing to rewatch Interstellar with me!
Philosophy and Approach
With a deep appreciation for both the big and simple moments, my philosophy centers on capturing life and love in all its forms. My work goes beyond taking beautiful photos, to me it’s about documenting a time in your life. With every photo I take, my hope is to create a meaningful and lasting legacy for my clients.
I believe that genuine moments are the heart of a compelling photograph. I want to capture each person, couple, or family with honesty and empathy by letting their personalities and stories shine through. My approach to photography is grounded on collaboration and connection. I want to connect with my clients, understand their unique stories and build trust to tell them.
Photography is an art of storytelling, and a celebration of life's sweetest moments. I approach each session with gratitude and I am humbled and honored to be trusted to create photographs that will hold lasting meaning in your life.
