STUNNING, SENSITIVE, CLASSIC, ETHEREAL, EMOTIONALLY VIVID...FINE ART IMAGERY
 
Specializing in the fusion of fashion with an artist's eye. As a fine artist, emotion, light, movement are the keystones of Kim's work whether it is with painting or photographing. 
 
Shooting for real people having real moments that appreciate their photographs looking as if they herald from the pages of a magazine.
 
Kim is a seasoned destination wedding photographer who has photographed weddings from the upper East side of NY, to the caves of Sonoma County Vineyards, to the beaches of San Francisco and Castle walls of Greystone, to the Culinary Institute of America. 
 
Kim's background in fashion editorial has created a photography style that is a mix of fashion and artistic photojournalism. She shoots as a photojournalist and edits as an artist. Kim was an editorial model in New York and Paris with Elite. As a model agent in San Francisco she developed model portfolios with an editorial feel. As an artist she has mastered her artistic eye to create a calm and enjoyable method encapsulating the spirit of her subject's essence and beauty. Years on the set, Kim understands how to guide her subjects to bring their best looks to the camera.     
 
She creates a trusting rapport with each of her subjects to accomplish this goal. She is very much on the hunt for the intimate connection with the camera; believing this creates the most powerful of photographs. Her experience in front of the camera, working with many world renowned photographers and editing thousands of frames of film over a decade has provided her with priceless experience and expertise. She deeply understands the camera only sees the truth of the moment.

Let me first state that I do wedding photography myself, so it was important for me to find a photographer that is creative, experienced, has a good eye for photos, has good equipment, knows how to edit and would do the job of taking my wedding pictures without me worrying about it. After looking at numerous photographers online it became apparent there are a lot of photographers doing wedding pictures that are very mediocre. Kim James is NOT one of those photographers! Once I saw her pictures I knew immediately I wanted her to do our wedding. She also did a engagement shoot of us. Kim has a way of making the photo shoot fun and relaxing. The engagement pictures were some of the best pictures I've seen taken and my wife and I enjoy them every day when we look at them on our wall. Now for our wedding day: She went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. It started off when the hairdresser messed up my wife's hair on the day of the wedding. My wife was so upset she was having a hard time getting her make-up on. Kim jumped right in and did the make-up for her! It's really great having an experienced photographer that's ready for anything. The wedding pictures turned out great in what was very difficult afternoon shooting conditions. Everyone I show them to wants to know who the photographer was. I really can't recommend Kim James enough. She's really talented and creative at what she does.
