Refined Wedding Imagery, Told With Intention

Luxury editorial storytelling for couples who value beauty, meaning, and moments that feel as good as they look.

It’s About How Your Story Is Held

This Is More Than Photography

I don’t approach weddings as productions — I approach them as once-in-a-lifetime gatherings of the people and moments that matter most. My work is rooted in awareness, intention, and emotional presence. I pay attention to the energy in the room, the quiet exchanges, the movement of light, and the details you chose with care. Every image is created with purpose — not just to look beautiful, but to feel honest, refined, and deeply connected to your story.

Luxury editorial photography for couples who value artistry, elegance, and meaningful storytelling.

Hi, I’m Kim — a luxury editorial wedding photographer with a love for candid storytelling and the in-between moments you didn’t even realize were unfolding. I’m a former healthcare professional turned full-time creative, a wife and mom to a beautifully blended family, an introvert with calm energy (but don’t worry, I’ll still hype you up), and your steady presence on one of the most meaningful days of your life.

The Heart Behind the Timeless Imagery

From healthcare to holding space behind the camera.

I didn’t always plan on becoming a photographer. Before this, I worked in healthcare, where staying calm under pressure, reading a room quickly, and caring for people in vulnerable moments was simply part of the job. That experience shaped the way I show up on a wedding day more than anything else. I know how to stay grounded when timelines shift. I know how to gently guide when emotions run high. I know how to notice the quiet in-between moments most people miss.

Photography has been part of my life since my early twenties, but after my own wedding, something shifted. I realized how quickly the day moves and how powerful it is to have images that bring you right back to the feeling. That’s when this stopped being a creative outlet and became something deeper. 

Now, I document weddings the way I wish mine was documented – honest, intentional, refined and full of emotion.

KIM WAS AMAZING! SHE WAS ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE US LAST MINUTE FOR CHRISTMAS PHOTOS AND WAS SUCH A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH."

"The pictures came out beautifully, even with our dogs who can be handful. We hope to work with her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer!"

A Little More About Me

my life & work values

A Little More About Me

My life is centered around family, loyalty, and showing up fully for the people who matter most. The way I love — steady, intentional, protective — shapes everything I build.

01

ROOTED IN LOVE

I’ve learned that strength doesn’t have to be loud. Growth can be steady, grounded, and deeply intentional. I believe in evolving with grace while staying true to who I am.

02

QUIET STRENGTH

I notice light shifting through a room, subtle expressions, the small in-between moments most people overlook. Beauty isn’t always grand — sometimes it’s quiet.

03

A CREATIVE EYE

I value being present over being perfect. In conversation, in motherhood, in business — I choose depth, honesty, and meaning. I don’t do anything halfway. If I’m in, I’m fully in

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!“

I've had my fair share of photographers and I can confidently say she's been my favorite. I usually expect maybe 3-5 good shots but every shot was magical. She was so considerate about making it exactly how I wanted it. She allowed us to imitate my inspo photos and it was just amazing. She was so sweet and flexible. 10/10 recommended

“If I could give a higher rating I would!!”

We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Kim to photograph our wedding in December 2025 and not only are the photos amazing and she was easy to work with but she got them back to me so quick!! She captured everything I could have ever asked for and more. Her pictures tell the story of our wedding, we will forever be grateful we found Kim. So if you are reading this and considering her, I would 1000% recommend. I could not have had a better experience!

“Kim is truly an amazing photographer!”

We had Kim take our engagement pictures and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out! We were a bit nervous since it was our first time taking couple photos but she was a natural at guiding us throughout the whole session making us feel so comfortable, we had the best time! These photos are so special to us, thank you so much Kim.

“We did our engagement photoshoot with Kim and she was nothing short of phenomenal.”

She was intentional in her posing for us and it all looked seamless. The location she suggested was covered in beautiful wildflowers. She very quickly sent us a small and beautiful preview of our photos, and got us the entire gallery within the time frame quoted. Our photos are timeless, classic, and truly capture our love and playfulness. Thank you Kim!

“Kim is amazing to work with.”

She kept good contact with us leading up to our wedding day. My husband and I aren't good with posing, we're super thankful that Kim came up with many cool ideas that looks so natural! Kim is well-organized. She captured all that we asked for and more! We were actually ahead of schedule on the day of, even without a coordinator. The photos came out beautifully, with the color tone I wished for. We'd love to work with Kim on more projects in the future. Highly recommend!

LOVE LETTERS

Behind every wedding I document is a life I deeply cherish myself. Before I’m your photographer, I’m a wife, a mama, and a dog lover who treasures the in-between moments just as much as the big ones. Below is a glimpse into my world — the love that shaped me, the family that grounds me, and the everyday memories that remind me why preserving yours matters so much.
