Hey There,
I'm Kim
PHOTOGRAPHER • MAMA • BRAND CONSULTANT — OAKLAND, CA
I’m a photographer, mom, art lover, and someone who’s spent the last 20 years chasing stories—first in the fast-paced world of brand marketing, and now through my lens.
Before I made the leap into full-time photography, I worked my way up the creative ladder, leading social and content strategy for big brands. It was rewarding, but all-consuming. So for a long time I was what they call a weekend warrior—shooting families, weddings, and passion projects whenever I could squeeze them in.
After the pandemic shifted everything, and with a little girl now watching me live out my days, I knew it was time to make a change. I wanted a life with more presence, more creativity, and deeper connection to my community. So I took the leap—and here I am.
My style blends documentary storytelling with a bold, contrast-rich aesthetic. I look for the in-between moments—the ones that aren’t posed or perfect, but full of feeling. I’ll help you get comfortable in front of the camera, and then let life unfold naturally. My goal is to make sure you feel seen—beautiful, essential, and part of the story.
And because I come from the world of content strategy and brand storytelling, I also work with small businesses and creative entrepreneurs to help them show up with confidence—both in photos and online. From lifestyle shoots to social strategy, I love helping small brands tell their big stories.
Let’s make something beautiful together.
