About

TIMELESS. NATURAL. ROMANTIC.

Every couple has a love story and it is my hope to capture that story as it unfolds. Your emotions, your style, your personalities, and every detail should be photographed in a natural and timeless way, to be treasured forever.

My name is Kim Lyn Chauvin and I am a Rhode Island based wedding and lifestyle photographer. I love what I do and I am blessed to be able to work with such amazing clients. Couples I love to work with are fun-loving, hopeless romantics, and love natural beauty. The styles they are attracted to are timeless, vintage, and classic. I am taken away by the beauty of this world and being a photographer has allowed me to document it.

If you want your story captured, I would be honored to be your photographer. Click on the contact form and let us know all the details and vision for your big day!

Hire Kim!!!!

I cannot recommend Kim (and Shiloh) enough!!!! Not only are they super responsive and professional but they are both SO talented and made sure that we felt comfortable in front of the camera. The results speak for themselves - the photos we have from our engagement shoot and our wedding are absolutely perfect. They are also both so easy to get along, it's like having your friends taking your photos on that day which I think is so special. Thank you Kim and Shiloh for everything! We will be hiring them again in the future for sure!

Amazing to Work With!

After deciding I wanted to do a boudoir shoot as my husband’s wedding gift I found Kim and her beautiful work. Setting up everything with her was so easy and streamlined and I loved the guide she had to help decide on outfits, accessories, and prep. The makeup artist Jen was fantastic and immediately made me feel beautiful even before I got in front of the camera. Throughout the shoot Kim made me feel so comfortable and confident. The conversation was light and felt like talking to a friend. Even months later I still go through my photos and I’m obsessed! The album was gorgeous and my husband loves all the photos. I’m so glad I took the leap and booked Kim!

The best photographer

KIM IS TRULY THE BEST! I don't even know where to start - from the very beginning I just knew I wanted her to photograph our wedding; we didn't even talk to anyone else. Her website, instagram and overall style really spoke to me - it feels light, airy, romantic and everything I could ever want. After speaking with Kim we instantly clicked. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, friendly and warm. Any questions I had she answered. Once we did our engagement shoot with her and her husband Shiloh, I honestly felt like we were all friends. And that's what I value most because it allows you to be comfortable, 100% yourself and capture the best photos.

I also did a boudoir shoot with Kim and I cannot speak more highly about the entire experience. I felt sexy, empowered and beautiful. Kim made me feel so comfortable which is extremely important when trying to be vulnerable on camera. The photos were absolutely amazing and I am so happy I can look back on them forever.

Now to our wedding day!!! Kim was like an additional friend, planner, and confidant on that special day. She was with me for getting ready and guided me through the day, which I definitely needed. She helped with my dress, she helped take out my veil for me, she literally went above and beyond on everything. We had so many formal pictures to get through and Kim and Shiloh took charge and made it happen. We were beyond thankful to have them with us that day. They made us laugh, smile and brought out our best selves for our photos. It felt like we were just hanging out with our friends all day which is exactly what I wanted. I cannot explain how GORGEOUS our pictures turned out!!! I am absolutely obsessed with them!! You will not regret hiring them so just do it!!! Not only do we have these stunning pictures to remember our day forever, but we gained some lifelong friends along the way and I am extremely thankful for that!

The BEST Photographer

No doubt the best decision I made for my wedding day, other than saying ‘I do’ to my husband, was hiring Kim as my photographer. Her photos speak for themselves. They are beautiful, airy, romantic and effortless. Tears come to our eyes every time we look at our wedding photos because they immediately bring us back to our special day and that is all thanks to Kim and Shiloh who went above and beyond in capturing every moment we requested and then some. They are so talented, professional, organized, and beautiful both inside and out. There are many talented photographers out there but where Kim and Shiloh stand apart from the rest is that they bring such great energy, a calming presence and genuinely care to help make sure your day is beyond special. Do not hesitate to hire them. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful Light & Airy Photos

We had the best experience with Kim and Shiloh during our wedding! From the moment we talked to Kim on the phone, we loved her vibe and knew that we wanted her to be a part of our day. She is incredibly sweet yet professional and fun. Her work is beautiful and we are so thankful that she documented all of our details for years to come!

Amazing Boudoir Photos

Kim was AMAZING! I've never done boudoir before and was nervous & had no idea what I was doing but she made me feel totally comfortable and walked me through every step and every movement. The photos turned out amazing and I had soo many to choose from, which was awesome. Highly highly recommend for anyone wanting to try this out. I also researched so many vendors in New England and Kim's packages were the most reasonable for such great quality photos.

The best wedding photographers!!

There aren't enough words to describe how thankful I am for Kim and Shiloh! I had to make the hard decision to end my contract with my first wedding photographer after we got our engagement pictures back last year. Luckily I found Kim, and after our first phone consultation I knew I was making the right choice this time around. Then we had a pandemic change all of our wedding plans and she made sure that photography was the last thing I had to worry about. She and Shiloh made my husband (!) and I feel so comfortable and special during our small elopement ceremony. We now have the most beautiful pictures to look back on (and filled with so much emotion) until we get to see them again at our postponement party next year! I have received so many compliments from friends and family on my pictures - people even telling me to submit them to wedding magazines. They are stunning. Something so unique about Kim and Shiloh is that they are spouses so they actually act out some of the poses they want you to do, which makes the pictures come out so much more natural (even for a couple that has no idea how to pose, like my husband and myself)! I could sing them praises all day long.

Kim Lyn Nailed My Branding Session

I'm a fellow wedding industry creative, I own my own event planning and design company, and I recently hired Kim to do a branding session for me. I have worked with Kim on weddings in the past and am in awe of just how talented she is - she sits on my preferred vendor list!

When it comes to branding photography, I had seen a testimonial of someone who had received headshots from her and they looked so relaxed. Their review even proclaimed that they'd never felt more comfortable in front of the camera. That extra little review from someone prompted me to reach out to Kim for my own branding photography session!

I have a calm demeanor as a planner and sometimes I feel like it's really hard to capture that in photography. WELL Kim nailed it! I was relaxed the entire time and was able to get through quite a few outfit changes without feeling rushed. Kim was patient, helped me get each shot just right, directed my positioning, made me laugh and delivered a gallery that feels so totally me.

Some more perks: incredibly fast turn around, a favorites gallery that has way more pictures than I ever could have wished for, lots of fun on location and images that will stand the test of time.

Can't recommend her enough! Thanks again, Kim!!

Badass Boudoir Photographer!

I could probably write a novel about Kim and her bad ass photography skills, but I’ll keep it short and sweet. For some people, being photographed in general can feel awkward, and especially with boudoir photography, you are at your most vulnerable with someone you have most likely never met before. The moment I met Kim, all of my worries instantly melted away.... she is one of the most genuine and personable individuals I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She made me feel SO comfortable and fierce, and the pictures!! Oh god the pictures.... I could cried from how good they are... they made me feel so good about myself, and my confidence sky rocketed! Not only that, but I received the full album within a week and a half of the shoot. That is insane. I cannot wait for the next time I get to work with Kim, because there WILL be a next time. If you are considering boudoir, Kim is it for you. Look no further. She is a queen and rocks at what she does. Book her. I promise you won’t regret it!

PERFECT! And calming!

I am so grateful to Kim and Shiloh for everything on our wedding day. Taking pictures is typically very stressful for me (even just casual ones) and they made it so unbelievably easy and they were so calm, which immediately rubbed off on me and set me at ease before the ceremony! I haven’t seen the photos yet but I needed to write a review because of how great they were the day of. I highly recommend these two for any occasion!!
