  Work with Kim!

  We found a few of Kim's gallery online and were drawn to her photography style. When we had our first conversation with Kim - she was incredibly friendly, laid-back and easy to work with. We are so happy that Kim was our wedding photographer. She was there for all of the important moments. Her presence felt like a special part of our day. There were 180 people at our wedding, and Kim was somehow able to photograph everybody! We can't recommend working with Kim enough.

  Pure magic!

  Kim is an amazing photographer and human. She was so invested in taking the most beautiful photos of our wedding and understood what we liked and captured some beautiful and special moments. She is pure magic.

  Kim was absolutely amazing to work with and captured so much of the spirit and detail of our wedding. She is so down to earth and approachable which makes coordinating everyone so much easier. Her ability to capture not just the big moments but the sweet small moments was a wonderful surprise. She is reliable, communicative and executes efficiently. I couldn't believe how fast she was able to get through our portraits while coordinating everyone. I would recommend Kim to anyone!

  Kim was an utter delight to work with for our wedding! We had a smaller event and she worked with us to make sure we had the right combination of time and photo products to meet our needs and budget. Planning our shoot with her was a great time and when the day came, it was a total blast--she helped us make the most of our time (and weather) and caught so many special moments at the wedding itself. She has a great eye for truly intimate and beautiful photos. Can't recommend her enough!

  As father of the bride I can only thank Kim for the wonderful job she did. I know my daughter is extremely happy about the creativity Kim brought to the process. I was very impressed with her hard work as she was everywhere taking shots for hours. She utilized Camp Namanu's scenery extremely well. Her preliminary slide show is amazing and evidence of her quality work! Thank you Kim. Lara's dad

  I think the word that best describes Kim's work is "magical." And the beauty of it is nothing is contrived, she finds magic in real life. Every single photo Kim gave us glows with the magic of sincere moments -- interactions shared, emotions expressed, and spontaneous happenings. From a practical standpoint, Kim is the unobtrusive ninja, capturing every moment without disturbing the organic flow of things. But from an artistic standpoint, Kim's work is above and beyond the average wedding photographer. She knows composition, light, color, she knows how to edit, and she has eye that is so remarkable! Each photo is so rich, it can stand alone as it's own piece. In the end, what Kim does is capture the beauty of what it means to get married.
  
  When making vendor decisions, I hesitated to hire on out-of-state photographer, but in the end it was on of the best decisions I made. Kim truly captured the essence of our wedding day, and that to me was priceless.

  Kim took my proposal pictures. She helped me coordinate everything to the minute. Kim even went to the place to prep a few days beforehand. I was thoroughly impressed by her communication skills and timeliness.
  
  She was so gracious to seek out the best vantage points in the garden and send them too me for approval.
  
  I was nervous and shaking. My girlfriend and I were getting lost in the gardens, but Kim was patient to wait at our planned location until I finally got down on one knee.
  
  The pictures turned out wonderfully and her song choice for the slideshow was great too. Overall couldn't be happier with her professionalism and creativity.

  My husband and I live out of town (I'm in Kansas; he's in California), and I was looking for someone to photograph our March elopement. I looked online and read through some reviews, but no one really stood out to me. Then, I saw Kim. There was something special about her work - and I knew she'd be great for our special day. Kim was really easy to work with and to communicate with. It was really important for me to have someone that could capture all the moments of our elopement - because we both live out of town and the wedding was only going to have our officiant, photographer and a friend of mine from college. I wanted to be able to share all the special memories with my family when I returned from the wedding.
  
  The day of my wedding was the first day I met Kim. I immediately felt like she could be a member of my family! She is professional, funny, and captures the most beautiful moments. After the wedding ceremony we walked around the area to capture photos. They all felt natural and not staged. About a week or so after the ceremony I received an email that our wedding slideshow was ready for view. Kim chose about 70 pictures, set them to music, and we were able to view a sneak peek of the photography. It was AMAZING.
  
  Finally, about two weeks after the ceremony we received all the photos. Kim captured the most beautiful and perfect moments and I find myself going through them regularly. They truly took my breath away.
  
  If you're looking for a down to earth, professional, funny, kind, caring, AMAZING wedding photographer Kim is your gal.

  My husband and I had the pleasure of attending a wedding Kim was shooting in 2015, during our engagement, and then saw the photos. They were amazing, stunning.... completely captured the feel and energy of the wedding. I promptly came home and reviewed Kim's gallery. I noticed immediately how different each wedding was. Weddings are supposed to be unique to the couple and Kim absolutely captured each wedding in it's own way. I was crying before I had finished looking at all the photos and Ben and I knew that we wanted her to shoot our wedding. The photos are exactly what I wanted without even knowing what I wanted.... if that makes sense. I can't even begin to describe how good our photos turned out. They're priceless. I would recommend Kim again and again.... and again.

  Well Kim, you're the best, that's all there is to it. First of all, she's so easy to work with, second, she's super cool, and third, her pictures are gorgeous. We knew we picked the right photographer for our elopement because our first Skype conversation with her was so free and easy and she understood our vision for the day as an intimate and fun gathering for our friends and family. All throughout the planning, she was great as far as communication with us and then on the day of the ceremony, she was exactly the kind of wonderful photographer you'd want in capturing all the special moments -- both staged and spontaneous -- you'd want to remember on your wedding day. In fact, we thought she was so awesome we insisted she stick around for our after-party and we loved having her play pinball and shuffleboard with us to close the evening. Kim, you're the best! Keep up the great work and we look forward to seeing you again soon!
  
  Love, Jade and Christian

  Kim was absolutely AMAZING to work with. She's quick to respond with any information, but also incredibly easy-going, which is so helpful during wedding planning mania. Most importantly, she's so very talented, her pictures aren't the typical 'porcelain bride' photos, but a collection of energetic, gorgeous shots that actually tell the story and emotion of the day. She's the best!

  Kim is a true professional who knows how to catch the magical moments of a wedding. You will get some absolutely stunning portraits, but where Kim really shines is catching the joy of the occasion in her photos.

  Kim was such a joy to work with! She made me feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera, and honestly she caught so many genuine moments that it didn't feel like I was being staged. Spending the whole day with Kim just felt like hanging out with one of my girlfriends--easy to be around and fun! When she was capturing the group and family photos after the wedding ceremony, it still felt light hearted and like we were celebrating (which was great, because of course we were!) . Throughout the whole day she didn't miss a beat. Post-wedding she was quick to get finished photos back to us and the video photo montage she shared to hold us over in the meanwhile was so beautiful! A year later, we still love reliving our wedding day through the moments she captured. We can't recommend Kim enough!

  Kim is extremely professional, friendly, and responsive. My guests commented that she was everywhere she needed to be but was also very discreet; they hardly realized she was there, but she managed to capture every special moment with grace and style. Our photographs turned out beautifully and Kim even made us an online slideshow that is set to music so we could share it with friends and family immediately. Kim does a lot of photo curating for you, which saves time. She's also provides follow-up on any loose ends you may request in the weeks and months after the wedding as her time allows.
