SEEKING HUMANITY
Kim's early career involved sharp-shooting priceless moments in sometimes unusual locations.
"My first bride wore a Swarovski encrusted goat skull among the feathers & fire of Burning Man -- an annual art festival built on the desert playa of Blackrock City, NV. Another couple dove head first into the ocean as Costa Rican macaws looked on. No matter the wedding, no matter the place, my addiction to love always keeps me coming back for more."
Kim also loves documenting poignant yet uncelebrated moments, spending A Day in the Life with families.
"Ordinary days are where love shines most intimately -- making family breakfast for the ten-thousandth time, story hour, bedtime cuddles, cheering for the winning goal, helping with homework, saying a last goodbye before a dying breath. These aren't often artistically marked moments, but they should be."
INTO THE WILD
Among the winter wolves of Yellowstone and the coastal brown bears of Alaska, Kim has taught hundreds of people to master their cameras -- when and where it counts.
"As a naturalist, and forever culturally curious, I want my guests to learn so much more than photography. I want their hearts invested in why the scene matters to them.
That may mean imparting indiginous, natural, or historical perspective, current political impacts, identifying signs of a suffering or healing landscape, or explaining the behavior and biology of a magnificent wild animal standing before us. It's the stories I want others to understand and share. It's how we're all connected."
Prior to teaching in the field, Kim taught her philosophy and techniques for wildlife, landscape, travel, and astro-photography to her classroom students at New York's Arts Center of the Capital Region.
