Kim A. Taylor Photography

rmth and professionalism. She makes everyone feel comfortable and takes the time to not only capture the big moments, but she also captures the little private heartfelt ones also. The pictures are always just beautiful! We are so appreciative of her thoughtfulness and her talent. We would absolutely recommend Kim to anyone who wants their special moments captured with care and heart. Dawn & Steve Cannon

t us at ease. She was also great with communication the whole time - before and during the wedding - so we always knew what to expect and never felt stressed. She gives clear direction for poses while still keeping everything natural, which made a big difference for us. The day before the wedding, she came to our rehearsal and shared helpful feedback with us and our wedding party that made the day run even more smoothly. On the wedding day, she was organized and calm, and handled everything seamlessly. She captured amazing shots from getting ready all the way through the dancing without anything ever feeling forced. When we got our final gallery, we were honestly blown away. We loved every single photo, and it felt like she captured the day exactly how it felt. We’d absolutely recommend Kim to anyone looking for a photographer.

having met Kim, we began talking like we were old friends catching up. And wow! When we got our pictures back they were incredible! We both felt uncomfortable at first in front of the camera but Kim was great about talking us through what to do, and it shows in the picture outcome. I can’t stop looking at the pictures. Would HIGHLY recommend Kim to any friend if they want a photographer who has their back on their big day and will capture everything you want them to capture!

, truly talented, cares deeply for her clients, and is exactly the kind of vendor teammate I want on my team at every wedding. She is my top recommendation to all my clients!

our wedding day. Many of our immediate family members were meeting for the first time at our wedding, and one of our priorities was to capture their interactions at the cocktail hour and the reception. Kim's ability to see and take candid photos of sweet, tender, and joyful moments drew us to her photograpy. She also really charmed our guests, from our young flower girls to our parents, and we heard from many of them how delightful she was on our wedding day. Her experience and clear cues helped lighten the mood and get the most out of the formal posed photos.

ed with Kim and she immediately made us feel so comfortable we were laughing within seconds. Just how comfortable we were showed in our engagement and wedding photos! It’s very clear how much fun we were having, and how relaxed we were. Her attention to detail is incredible, she was fixing things that we never would have considered. She hit all our priority photos and even included some amazing shots of our wedding venue and the entire island, which was such a neat touch for us and our special place. During the reception, it felt like everywhere something iconic or memorable was happening Kim was already there getting a shot. We are so incredibly happy with our photos, we highly, highly recommend Kim as your photographer - you won’t regret it.

with Kim

delivered! She and Christy worked so hard - it was incredible! Kim remained calm, flexible and full of humor despite the wedding chaos. The photos turned out great! Some fun - some gorgeous and all exactly what we wanted. Outside of being a dedicated and hardworking professional, Kim is a lot of fun. We loved working with her.

oments and turn them into breathtaking, timeless photos. Her calm presence and clear direction made taking still photos effortless and comfortable, putting everyone at ease. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about her warmth, professionalism, and talent. Beyond her photography skills, Kim’s wife was equally wonderful—friendly, supportive, and always ready to help in any way. Their combined presence made the entire experience smooth, joyful, and truly special. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories Kim captured and highly recommend her work! -J&A

m brings the energy and enthusiasm that you need on your wedding day. My husband and I wanted not just the typical wedding photos but also for the essence of the day to be captured. We received so many candids and photos of guests that truly showed our day as it was. Kim worked extremely hard to ensure that every detail of our wedding was captured while also making sure that we had space to celebrate and be with our guests. We received so many compliments from guests at our wedding about Kim and folks raved about her energy and how she did not fail to make any one have a smile on their face. We would hire Kim a million times over and strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer who will capture your day beautifully and from all of the angles that you might not get to see. We are so grateful to have all of these amazing photos from her and will treasure them forever!

e everyone feel at ease, and she brought a fun, upbeat energy to the day that was truly infectious. Even our guests commented on how amazing she was! One of the things we appreciated most was her efficiency—not only was she great at keeping everything on schedule, but we were also amazed by the quick turnaround time for our photos. And the results were stunning! She captured every special moment beautifully, with a perfect blend of candid and posed shots that truly reflect the spirit of the day. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

future.

all the family and guests! Her energy matched what was needed, she knew what shots would be good without being overbearing. She would continually ask after the comforts of everyone she photographed. And she helped people relax enough to get truly wonderful candid photos. We would definitely recommend her for any event!

pecial moment with such artistry and attention to detail. The photos are absolutely stunning — we’ve received so many compliments! Kim was not only professional but also a calming presence on a hectic day, and she managed to get incredible shots without being intrusive. If you want beautiful, timeless memories of your wedding, Kim is the one to trust. We are beyond thrilled with her work!

ouple and of our family we will cherish forever. I couldn't recommend Kim enough!

d and so so so helpful. From the start she makes sure to truly understand what you want, getting to know you as a couple. Doing our engagement shoot with her was amazing and she was wonderful and encouraging the entire way through, we were so excited to get to hang out with her again at the wedding. She had so many incredible recommendations, it was like having a second wedding planner! She was patient with me whenever I became overwhelmed with the process, and I've been getting CONSTANT positive feedback on the photos and inquiries about who my photographer is. She event went out of her way to ensure that she was prepared (with venue visits, feedback for us, and more). She truly cares about ensuring she get's the best photos for your big day. Basically... she's the best!

oing, fun personality were infectious. Her passion for her work is evident in every gorgeous photo she captured. Kim was super thoughtful in planning and made sure she knew exactly what the couple wanted. Her communication was fantastic and made everything so easy. On the wedding day, she interacted wonderfully with the bridal party and guests, making everyone feel comfortable and excited. Numerous guests commented on how amazing she was and couldn't wait to see the photos. Kim doesn't just shoot from a distance; she dives right in to capture those incredible candid moments. The photos from the dance floor were particularly fun and perfectly reflected the joy of the evening. We can't recommend Kim enough. We were so grateful to have her as part of our team. She went above and beyond before, during, and after the wedding and reception, and the photos turned out phenomenal. If you're looking for an amazing photographer, Kim is the one!

xtensive experience is evident in her professionalism. She captured everything from the big moments to the smallest details, giving us a huge collection of photos to cherish for the rest of our lives. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Kim every time!! You won’t regret choosing her for your special day!

as an absolute delight to work with, always maintaining a positive attitude and making communication a breeze, whether via text or phone call. After some joint research, we chose Point No Point Lighthouse as our shoot location, and it perfectly suited our theme and vision. Kim went above and beyond by scouting the area beforehand to identify the best spots for our photos. She meticulously considered every detail, from the time of day to wind and tide conditions, ensuring we had the best possible environment for our shoot. Despite our initial nervousness and personal insecurities about being in front of the camera, Kim made us feel like stars the moment she arrived. Her warm and encouraging demeanor instantly put us at ease. Throughout the shoot, her directions were clear and easy to follow, making the whole process enjoyable and stress-free. Even our clumsy "oops" moments were beautifully captured, with one of those candid shots now proudly displayed in our home! Kim's dedication and attention to detail were truly remarkable. The extra care she took to make sure everything was perfect did not go unnoticed. We are beyond happy with our decision to book Kim A Taylor Photography and are eagerly looking forward to having her capture the special moments of our wedding day. Her ability to create lasting memories through her lens is something we will cherish forever.

ke everyone laugh made two people who are usually very uncomfortable behind the camera much more at ease. We had a small wedding and Kim fit right in, grabbing gorgeous photos without disrupting the flow of the evening. It was important to us to have our photographer seamlessly become part of the night without stopping conversation or flashing lights during dinner, and Kim was exactly that. She listened to what we wanted for the day, checked in with us, and was a pivotal part of our dream day. Without a doubt, we would recommend Kim to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

e most amazing photos ever!

lps you with poses and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera (which can be intimidating!). She is incredibly detailed and organized. She was also super helpful with our wedding timeline. She stepped up during a discussion with our wedding coordinator to say that we were probably trying to jam too much into the schedule and helped us reorganize it. I really appreciated this because I was feeling super overwhelmed at the time. She went above and beyond, including coming to the rehearsal at the venue, arriving early, and staying late to make sure our photos were perfect. When we got our photos, I was amazed by all the photos she got. Beautiful portraits, small details, wide landscapes, candids. She truly captured our day. Lastly, I must highlight that I've attended weddings where the photographers can feel intrusive. This was not Kim at all. I honestly don’t know how she got some the incredible shots!

im brought an infectious energy to all our events and helped make everyone involved feel so warm and comfortable. She learned our bridal party and close family members by name, and she coached everyone through poses in a way that felt both fun and natural. She even had my military/preacher father (a man who wasn’t thrilled about taking portraits) laughing, grinning ear to ear, and completely at ease. Being an interracial couple, my partner and I were anxious in our search for a photographer who could capture everyone's beauty, regardless of skin tone. I worried about intense shadows in group photos or being washed out by filters that work best on lighter skin tones. Kim managed to capture everyone with the glowing love we all felt on that beautiful day. I have truly never seen more beautiful photos of my partner and I, as either a portrait or candid. She also fulfilled our request to prioritize capturing the guest experience at our wedding. We have come away from our wedding celebration with memories of real moments that we hold deep in our hearts. Booking Kim for our wedding photography was easily the best choice I made for my wedding (other than who the groom was!).

an anything she was dedicated. Kim had never shot a wedding in Port Townsend before, but she put in an incredible amount of work to scout and plan all of our shoots. She found locations and planned angles that created incredible moments and beautiful photos without disrupting the flow of our day. Her preparation, commitment and enthusiasm made the entire process so easy! When it was time for the events, she had an ability to be everywhere at once. She never interrupted the flow or moment, but always was near enough to capture it. The candid shots she delivered capture the genuine emotion of the weekend. When it was over, she delivered the galleries alarmingly fast. My bride and I were able to look through the previous night's Welcome Dinner gallery while we were having coffee at 8am on the day of our wedding. I would recommend Kim without any reservation or qualification.

and she happily obliged. I have NEVER seen my husband be comfortable getting his photo taken until we got photos done with Kim. I could not recommend her more!

ax and have fun! We had a blast at the engagement photo session and can't wait to see how the wedding photos will turn out. Kim went above and beyond for us, staying overtime to make sure she got the best pictures she could for us. Her prep work and style gave us confidence that she will deliver results we will love. We will definitely be recommending Kim to friends.

luded us in all creative decision-making. We’ll definitely be working with her again 😊

frame to capture THE perfect group shot, I knew she was the one! Kim is an outstanding communicator who delivers in her genuine relatable manner, planning, creativity, and artistry. She even took the time to scope out our venue on multiple occasions to see how the lighting would change throughout the day. She was a gem with our nephews and nieces who ranged from 10 months to 6 years. She memorized our whole wedding guest list of 30+ people and she and her partner had the photos so organized that we kept on our tight schedule as dictated by the venue. I'll be the first to say I feel awkward in photos and don't know how to pose. Kim was so patient with us. She modeled the posing and expressions in a way that made us laugh and act natural for the camera. When my husband and I needed a break from the spotlight, she accommodated without complaint. She was everywhere obtaining every shot I requested and more and yet unobtrusive. I gently reminded the two of them to stop, eat, and take breaks as they were non-stop from pre-wedding onward. We only had our wedding a few days ago and she already sent us the link to our photos! Kim A. Taylor had competitive photography rates and after working with her and seeing the results I am certain she was worth every penny and more! I know that marriage is once in a lifetime, but if I had to plan the perfect wedding all over again, Kim A. Taylor would still be the one for me.

e is super kind, fun, friendly, and dedicated to her work. She went into a great level of detail when we met her before to create our timelines and it was very reassuring. During our events she was constantly directing the traffic. She was really attentive to details. She was committed to each picture - making sure everyone was smiling, eyes open, in the right spot, etc. And this really reflects on the final pictures we received. They’re outstanding. She worked with our day of coordinators and really controlled the pace of the timeline. Even when there were hiccups (like our caterer arriving 2 hours late) she stayed flexible and adapted. She remembered all of the pictures that would be affected and made an immediate plan b. Her detail shots of the venue and our clothes accessories are absolutely gorgeous. And she was really good at adapting to indoor vs outdoor lighting. The barn we held our reception in was DARK. She had all the gear and cameras she needed for that and she carried multiple cameras so she could switch easily between close ups or wide angle or whatever else she needed. We were really worried about finding someone who could capture motion on the dance floor. She was amazing - literally dancing herself into the center of the dance floor (which got intense) and captured everyone! The style of her dance floor pictures is awesome! Such a fun use of motion and lighting! Her turn around time for our pictures was earlier than she had promised. It was a wonderful surprise to receive them to close to the event. She does her homework well. She visited the venue before the wedding and she researched Indian weddings to be prepared for what would happen during the ceremony. She made use of the whole property, the gardens, the buildings, and all of the nature. She has a great process to make sure she doesn’t miss out on any important pictures requests by having a clipboard with so many details! She could’ve left after the first day’s events were over but she stayed late to set up lighting and scout spots for our second day. She really went above and beyond to make this a memorable event for us. She even was running after us on our getaway car at the end of the 2nd night. Kim literally never quit for two days straight!

fect angle and light. But she also has an amazing personality that makes everyone feel at ease. Our wedding photos turned out amazing, we especially love how she was able to capture all of the genuine small moments during the day. Kim is always very punctual and easy to coordinate with. We have subsequently hired Kim for a maternity shoot and new baby, and it always feels like getting together with an old friend! 100% recommend to friends and family - your photos will be amazing!

y. She knew what angles, lighting, and composition to use to make us look our best and the photos came out gorgeous! We couldn't have been happier having her and her lovely assistant with us on our special day. I highly recommend Kim for her outstanding skill, professionalism, and personality!

, and most importantly, bearable. She also captured 'moments' while the bridal party was getting ready, during the ceremony and post ceremony that were perfection. Without hesitation, we hired her for our second daughter's wedding as well. I literally can't say enough about how great she was!

our wedding, and family pics! Kim is so warm and friendly, and she makes you feel so comfortable during the shoot. Her prices are very reasonable for a high quality and professional product. I would recommend her to anyone!

bride's dressing area, and our home. She did a wonderful job of capturing both our best moments as well as our family, wedding party and guests in these venues. She knew exactly what things we needed to do; we just followed her directions and the photos came out great. This was my second marriage. On my first, I scrimped on the photographer. I decided to do it right this time and I am glad I did. What actually happened at the wedding will fade from all our memories over time. But we will always have these photos. As the commercial says "priceless". Thanks again, Kim.

edding day in order to come up with an itinerary for us to capture her unforgettable pictures. I really didn’t know what to expect and she helped guide me through the whole process. She met with us prior to the wedding to make sure she captured all the family photos we wanted in addition to her candid photos and to get to know us as a couple and help figure out our style as I love the in the moment photos and candid photos! She made being in a picture so easy and was so helpful in talking us through the shots but also making us feel at ease with her down-to-earth personality. We LOVED Kim and her attention to detail for the whole day to the finished photos. We had our pictures so quickly and she even sent us a few the next day to enjoy with all the rest shortly after.

ok! We are so incredibly blessed to have had her there. I tell everyone I know who is getting married to use her! Go with Kim! You will not regret it!
