About

Water Bear Photography is about making connections and your wedding day is one of the biggest connections of your life! Since 2015 we have been blessed to capture these connections and share the joy of all our couples. We aren't here to just photograph your wedding day, but to create artwork and preserve your memories for generations to come.

Water Bear Photography was born with the birth of our miracle baby and the desire to capture every moment, to look back on for a lifetime. We are primarily a wife/husband team who strives for excellence in the artwork we create for you. Our couples have taken us around the world to share in their day. From underwater to the top of mountains, we create an experience unique to you that tells your story. From that first phone call, to seeing your photos for the first time after your day, each interaction is about you.

We know how important it is that you find someone whose work you love, but we believe it's just as important you find someone who will bring out the best of who you are in your photos! Our mission at Water Bear Photography is to capture your life's biggest moments and create a custom, and unique experience for you that is as simple and stress-free as possible. Our goal is to get to know you and your fiance before we ever pick up the camera so you not only love your photos, but also enjoy your experience created just for you.

We devote an extensive amount of time with you and only accept two bookings per month to ensure we give you the time you deserve and to maintain our high standard of excellence. Please have a look through our work here, as well as on our website, Facebook, and Instagram pages. Let us know if you think we would be a good match to work together and we'll let you know how we can help you experience your big day like no other!

Choosing Water Bear Photography was an assertive decision. Kimber was highly recommended and so I hired her services.

About her character and personality traits:
Since the day we met I was able to appreciate her caring and sweet personality. She is patient, kind, and made me feel at ease all the time. She is a great listener and offered her recommendations, creative ideas, and guidelines which were all were very helpful. She is truthworthy and truly a delight to interact with.

Her professionalism before, during, and after the wedding is admirable. She is responsible accommodating, punctual, flexible, customer oriented, and very diligent.

About her work:
Without a doubt Kimber is a true artist. I have never seen a photographer as talented and original as her.
Kimber is knowledgable and an expert. No wonder how her work has made her so famous. Her ingenuity is remarkable! Her prices are reasonable, actually inexpensive for the quality of work she delivers!
She took so many pictures before and after the wedding and I can hardly decide which ones to include in my wedding album or choose for my portraits and canvas since they are all phenomenal!

I am so pleased and satisfied. She exceeded my expectations! On a personal note, I want to add that as an older bride, I was quite surprised to see all the pictures she took of me. I look ten years younger at least. I feel like a queen and so happy she depicted my best physical traits so graciously. She captured every moment with so much detail that you can appreciate the emotions and our love story! She is blessed with magic eyes, silky hands, and imagination.

Thank you so much for making our wedding such a memorable one for us!
