    Kind, Fun, Professional

    Kim has been a joy to work with! She has been so kind and fun and professional! I am so uncomfortable in front of the camera, and she was able to put me at ease and take some of the most amazing photos ever!

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Elizabeth I am so excited for your wedding next year! Thank you for leaning into this photo adventure. It's going to be epic!

    Beautiful!

    My husband and I CANNOT recommend Kim enough. We were planning on getting married in 2020 in front of 200 people as a whole weekend event and, as many, made the decision to postpone and redo the whole plan. We opted for a much smaller (12 people) wedding at a friend's home a year later. This was devastating to someone *me* who has dreamt about their wedding their whole life. We had hired Kim for the original date and a professional photographer was not something I wanted to give up -- luckily she was on board with a more personal setting. Kim is a warm, wonderful human and on top of that, a very gifted photographer. She slipped right in with our group and not only did we have a blast, but we have AMAZING photos to last us a lifetime. We are based in Portland and got married on Mt. Hood - the travel was easy and worth it. We had such a fun time in the woods with all of the shots, trying different things and she was able to help 2 very un-model like humans feel comfortable & confident...and our smiles are real! Truly Kim and Christy are a joy. They joined us for dinner and I wish we could have them over all the time - I don't think they know what a pleasure it was and how often I think back to how special the event ended up being. I want to hire Kim for all future projects... now I just have to start having them! THANKS KIM!!

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Crosby! I often think of you and your woodland wedding. What a special experience. The warmth and celebration of love was so profound. You both are incredibly kind I am so lucky that I got to be your photographer. Cheers to you!

    Absolutely Stunning!

    Kim did not just capture photos for our wedding she captured a story and just about every beautiful moment of our wedding day. Her love for what she does is so strong and apparent in the work that she does. Kim went above and beyond from start to finish! She hadn't photographed at our venue before so she toured it and even researched an alternative location to make sure we had the most stunning photos. Everyone at the wedding raved about her energy throughout the day. I loved how well she photographed the beautiful landscaping and how raw and real our photos feel. We also really loved all the photos she got of the guests so we could look back and see all who celebrated with us.

    If you are looking for a photographer to tell a story about your wedding day Kim is the perfect choice!

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Caitlynn it was a pleasure to be your photographer. Thank you for allowing me to capture your wedding day and I look forward to our anniversary session!

    Kim Captured Every Moment Perfectly!

    We had the immense pleasure of having Kim as our daughter's wedding photographer, and she truly exceeded all our expectations. From the moment she arrived, her high energy and outgoing, fun personality were infectious. Her passion for her work is evident in every gorgeous photo she captured.

    Kim was super thoughtful in planning and made sure she knew exactly what the couple wanted. Her communication was fantastic and made everything so easy. On the wedding day, she interacted wonderfully with the bridal party and guests, making everyone feel comfortable and excited. Numerous guests commented on how amazing she was and couldn't wait to see the photos.

    Kim doesn't just shoot from a distance; she dives right in to capture those incredible candid moments. The photos from the dance floor were particularly fun and perfectly reflected the joy of the evening.

    We can't recommend Kim enough. We were so grateful to have her as part of our team. She went above and beyond before, during, and after the wedding and reception, and the photos turned out phenomenal. If you're looking for an amazing photographer, Kim is the one!

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Audra, thank you so much for your kindness and your trust. As soon as we met I knew that this wedding would be special. The support and love surrounding the couple was palpable and inspiring. I wish your family so much happiness and thank you so much for having me.

    Can't wait for the wedding shoot!!!

    We recently had the pleasure of working with Kim A Taylor Photography for our engagement shoot, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. From the very beginning, Kim was an absolute delight to work with, always maintaining a positive attitude and making communication a breeze, whether via text or phone call.

    After some joint research, we chose Point No Point Lighthouse as our shoot location, and it perfectly suited our theme and vision. Kim went above and beyond by scouting the area beforehand to identify the best spots for our photos. She meticulously considered every detail, from the time of day to wind and tide conditions, ensuring we had the best possible environment for our shoot.

    Despite our initial nervousness and personal insecurities about being in front of the camera, Kim made us feel like stars the moment she arrived. Her warm and encouraging demeanor instantly put us at ease. Throughout the shoot, her directions were clear and easy to follow, making the whole process enjoyable and stress-free. Even our clumsy "oops" moments were beautifully captured, with one of those candid shots now proudly displayed in our home!

    Kim's dedication and attention to detail were truly remarkable. The extra care she took to make sure everything was perfect did not go unnoticed. We are beyond happy with our decision to book Kim A Taylor Photography and are eagerly looking forward to having her capture the special moments of our wedding day. Her ability to create lasting memories through her lens is something we will cherish forever.

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Jeremiah,
    Thank you so much for your kind words. I had such a blast connecting with both you and Sarah. You both brought such great energy and you made the entire session so much fun! Your wedding day is going to be amazing :)!

    The best wedding photographer!

    We love Kim!!! From our engagement photos to the day of the wedding, she made my husband and I feel comfortable and at ease behind the camera. Her easygoing style and ability to make everyone laugh made two people who are usually very uncomfortable behind the camera much more at ease. We had a small wedding and Kim fit right in, grabbing gorgeous photos without disrupting the flow of the evening. It was important to us to have our photographer seamlessly become part of the night without stopping conversation or flashing lights during dinner, and Kim was exactly that. She listened to what we wanted for the day, checked in with us, and was a pivotal part of our dream day. Without a doubt, we would recommend Kim to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Stefanie it was such a pleasure getting to know you both you and Daniel. Your wedding was so joyful and intimate. I instantly felt a sense of gratitude for being able to capture those moments and I am a better photographer for it. Thank you!

    Kim is amazing!

    We wanted to meet with Kim because we loved her portfolio and when we first met her we clicked right away and we knew she would be our photographer. She is very professional and she has a great energy that makes it easy to relax and have fun! We had a blast at the engagement photo session and can't wait to see how the wedding photos will turn out. Kim went above and beyond for us, staying over time to make sure she got the best pictures she could for us. Her prep work and style gave us confidence that she will deliver results we will love. We will definitely be recommending Kim to friends.

    Energetic, organized, and superb! Book with her now!

    Kim photographed our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding. Best. Decision. Ever. Kim has such a wonderful and warm personality. Everyone at our wedding loved her. She helps you with poses and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera (which can be intimidating!). She is incredibly detailed and organized. She was also super helpful with our wedding timeline. She stepped up during a discussion with our wedding coordinator to say that we were probably trying to jam too much into the schedule and helped us reorganize it. I really appreciated this because I was feeling super overwhelmed at the time. She went above and beyond, including coming to the rehearsal at the venue, arriving early, and staying late to make sure our photos were perfect. When we got our photos, I was amazed by all the photos she got. Beautiful portraits, small details, wide landscapes, candids. She truly captured our day. Lastly, I have to highlight that I've attended weddings where the photographers can feel intrusive. This was not Kim at all. I honestly don’t know how she got some of the incredible shots!

    Exceeded expectations in every way!

    Kim is not just a photographer. After working with her for our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding photos, I am convinced she is also a magician and a miracle worker! Kim brought an infectious energy to all our events and helped make everyone involved feel so warm and comfortable. She learned our bridal party and close family members by name, and she coached everyone through poses in a way that felt both fun and natural. She even had my military/preacher father (a man who wasn’t thrilled about taking portraits) laughing, grinning ear to ear, and completely at ease.

    Being an interracial couple, my partner and I were anxious in our search for a photographer who could capture everyone's beauty, regardless of skin tone. I worried about intense shadows in group photos or being washed out by filters that work best on lighter skin tones. Kim managed to capture everyone with the glowing love we all felt on that beautiful day. I have truly never seen more beautiful photos of my partner and I, as either a portrait or candid. She also fulfilled our request to prioritize capturing the guest experience at our wedding. We have come away from our wedding celebration with memories of real moments that we hold deep in our hearts. Booking Kim for our wedding photography was easily the best choice I made for my wedding (other than who the groom was!).

    Wonderful, Amazing, Truly the Best

    Kim was so amazing to work with!! She did such a wonderful job with our engagement photos, wedding photos, and even our wedding video!! She was always on time and knew all the right questions to ask and things to say!! She was even willing to work around our crazy schedules and even drove 2 hours away to come for our engagement photos and wedding day! Her personality and positive energy was everything we were looking for and even more, we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect person to be a part of our special day!! We will definitely be asking Kim to do any and all photoshoots in the future! She is truly the best and you can’t go wrong having her by your side on your special day!!

    Kim’s review 🥰

    Kim is absolutely amazing to work with!! We had her do our engagement photos and our wedding photos! We got married on October 1st, 2022! She is wonderful! She takes the time to get to know you on a personal level and really wants to make all your dreams come true! She definitely did for us!!! If you are looking for a photographer that is down to earth, great personality, fun sense of humor and really easy to work with, then look no further because she is the one you want!! When we had a little one on the way she was/is extremely excited to be apart of our journey and has even done maternity photos for us!! We definitely have a photographer and friend for life in Kim and we couldn’t imagine having anyone else capturing all these life events for us!! You cannot go wrong working with Kim!!

    Kim is absolutely wonderful! She was so gracious and thorough. She directed us and took all the guess work out of it, and she made us feel confident that she was the professional that she truly is. We laughed and had a great time as well, which really added to the experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!

    Working with Kim was absolutely fantastic. She’s fun, communicative, and full of creative ideas. Her energy is unmatched and can easily handle and manage large groups of people. Kim worked with us to accommodate our personal goals, respected our wishes, and included us in all creative decision-making. Looking forward to working with her again!

    Enthusiastic, energetic, and unparalleled!

    Kim A. Taylor was everything we could have hoped for and more! Initially I was drawn to her by the glowing reviews in her wake. When I saw a photo of her perched on top of a door frame to capture THE perfect group shot, I knew she was the one! Kim is an outstanding communicator who delivers in her genuine relatable manner, planning, creativity, and artistry. She even took the time to scope out our venue on multiple occasions to see how the lighting would change throughout the day. She was a gem with our nephews and nieces who ranged from 10 months to 6 years. She memorized our whole wedding guest list of 30+ people and she and her partner had the photos so organized that we kept on our tight schedule as dictated by the venue. I'll be the first to say I feel awkward in photos and don't know how to pose. Kim was so patient with us. She modeled the posing and expressions in a way that made us laugh and act natural for the camera. When my husband and I needed a break from the spotlight, she accommodated without complaint. She was everywhere obtaining every shot I requested and more and yet unobtrusive. I gently reminded the two of them to stop, eat, and take breaks as they were non-stop from pre-wedding onward. We only had our wedding a few days ago and she already sent us the link to our photos! Kim A. Taylor had competitive photography rates and after working with her and seeing the results I am certain she was worth every penny and more! I know that marriage is once in a lifetime, but if I had to plan the perfect wedding all over again, Kim A. Taylor would still be the one for me.

    Kim A. Taylor Photography's reply:

    Kim your wedding reminds me of why I love to photograph weddings. The love and close bonds that you share with your friends and family is so heartwarming. I found myself wiping my eyes more times than I can remember and believe me it was a good thing. Thank you both for your generosity, grace and kindness. I am very happy to have met you both and I wish both you and Jeff so much happiness.

    Our experience with Kim was amazing, she is an amazing photographer with great professionalism and really makes you feel comfortable. I could tell that we were her priority during the shoot and that she took everything we had to say into account. I could not recommend anyone more highly.

    Totally Amazing

    Kym Taylor is not only a professional photographer, but she has a way of becoming a part of the family so to speak. Everyone enjoyed her as a photographer but also her presence. She felt more like a guest as opposed to hired photographer. I hate having my picture taken, but Kym, made me feel at ease and honestly, I hardly noticed she was there taking pictures. Our wedding photos are wonderful, she captured precious moments between us. She included every part of our wedding from getting ready to the cutting of the cake. I highly recommend Kym for any event you need a photographer.

    In our search for the perfect photographer, we could not have landed a better person! Kim's upbeat and positive personality is contagious. We had MANY guests (and wedding party) complement us on our wedding photographer choice! My husband is a digital artist, so he has an eye for quality and value, and we were in love with our wedding and engagement pictures (both taken by Kim).

    Kim captured each moment of our day in creative and unique ways. She went above and beyond to ensure all the details of our day were thought out and planned for before our event. Kim is very easy to work with; quick to respond and answers questions you may have. HIGHLY recommended!

    Worth her weight in gold!

    We were admittedly on the fence about having a videographer for our wedding day, but we are SO glad we decided to have Kim with us on our day. In addition to being a warm, fun person to work with, Kim has a keen eye for detail and an incredible ability to gently give direction without making things feel unnatural or forced. She encouraged us to be ourselves and have fun, while also capturing elements of the day that we wanted to share with family and friends who could not attend. We cannot recommend Kim enough!

    I am so grateful to have met Kim! she is one of the best human beings I have ever met! she is very detailed, organized and on top of her photo skills. Both Joe and I loved her work and how well she handled all events from the court ceremony to the tea ceremony to reception. She is super sweet, fun, and caring! I would love to work with her in the future.

    What more can I say...This girl is GREAT When we initially met with her my fiancé and I both very impressed by her professionalism, her spunk and her work! We decided to do an engagement session before we booked for our wedding. Half way through the session my fiancé looked at me at said... "Lets ask her TODAY to do our wedding!" We are extremely pleased with the turn out of our engagement pictures and are looking forward to Kim spending our special day with us!
