Hours of Operation
Exclusively by appointment.About Us
Emotion, light and movement are the keystones of Kim's work as a painter / photographer.
A member of the very exclusive AG|WPJA The Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association is a group of international wedding photojournalists, who capture unscripted wedding moments as they happen, and excel in the art of post-production image processing, which also only accept less than 5% of the photographers worldwide who apply.
"I come from an eclectic background. I am married, I have 5 children, the oldest of which is 25, while the youngest is 12. I am an artist, photographer, writer, homemaker, gardener, dog owner, and I have an insatiable appetite for knowledge."
Kim was born and raised in San Fransisco. At 17 she started her modeling career with Elite New York working as a fashion model in NY and Paris. She has worked with renowned photographers from New York, Paris, and San Fransisco. Back home in SF she became as one of the worlds youngest fashion model agents, scout and booker. She stayed at City Model Management for 8 years developing new faces and handling the woman at City.
It has always been Kim's dream to raise her family in the mountains. That aspiration was met in 1993 after an extensive interviewing process with the Bidwell House Bed and Breakfast in Chester/ Lake Almanor. Managing the Inn helped shape Kim into a seasoned wedding planner and wedding photographer when she filled a niche sorely missing in the local market. Kim moved on from the Bidwell House in 2006 to open her own full time professional photo and art studio.
Kim's background in fashion editorial has created a photography style that is a mix of fashion editorial and artistic photojournalism. Kim was an editorial model in New York and Paris with Elite. As an agent in San Fransisco she developed model portfolios with an editorial feel. As an artist she has cultivated her artistic eye to create a calm and enjoyable method encapsulating the spirit of her subject's essence and beauty. She skillfully directs her subjects to create an emotionally charged portrait, while bringing fashionable style to her photography.
