About

Kenny Kim has always been fascinated by the visual arts - and especially the connection between art & photography. His passion first led to the study of graphic design at the University of Illinois, where he also became a skilled web designer and eventually opened up his own design studio in 2003. It was during this period, he began to realize that the greatest outlet for his artistic expression and technical skills would be through his passion for photography. Incorporating his own vision into the technical elements of photography, Kenny's goal with each photo he takes is to present each moment he captures with a subtle artistry that enhances the feel of the moment. With the launch of Kenny Kim Photography in 2005, Kenny's vision for a photographer's work instantly resonated with his audience and within a short period of time, Kenny Kim Photography has now grown into a nationally recognized studio. In just 3 short years, Kenny has been commissioned for over 100 weddings in locations throughout the United States and the Caribbean. He was also retained to shoot for the University of Illinois Men?s Basketball & Tennis teams along with various celebrity events featuring David Foster, Andrea Bocelli, John Legend, Three Doors Down, Chris Tomlin, Michael W. Smith, and many others. Kenny currently resides in Chicago, Illinois. He is thankful everyday for the privilege to call his passion in life, his profession as well.

Simply the best!

We cannot say enough about Kenny. Our wedding day simply would not have been what it was if it weren't for him--us, our families, our wedding party and our guests would all agree. Kenny got to know everyone so well and took time to ask everyone questions while managing to take the most beautiful photos. We have already continued our relationship with Kenny and we will absolutely be using him for future events we hope to hold as a newly wed family!

Best Investment for your Entire Wedding

Having Kenny Kim as our photographer was a dream come true. He has such an unparalleled talent, and he was able to capture some of the happiest moments of my life. This was hands down the best investment of the wedding. He absolutely put his heart and soul into his craft.
I’ve never been to a wedding before where all the guests CONTINUE to talk about the photographer, months after it’s over. The fact he made an effort to learn names and stories and connections made the experience so much more personal and memorable, and those efforts showed up in his final product. I look forward to having him be a part of future family milestones, as he feels like part of the family now!

Best of the best!

The title says it all - Kenny is the best of the best. From the first time we reached out to have our engagement pictures done, to our wedding day, we had nothing but an amazing experience with Kenny as our photographer. Not only is he extremely talented in his work - he is responsive, kind and genuine. We felt as though he really cared about us as a couple as well as our family and friends and it comes through in his pictures. The amount of compliments we received from our guests about how incredible our photographer was were constant throughout the weekend. He seemed to know everyone and treat them all like they were old friends which meant so much to us. We couldn't be happier.
