So much more than a photographer...!

Where to start? Very rarely do you come across someone who not only has the talent to capture special moments in time, but also adds so much more to the occasion.

We first met Kim 3 years ago when she photographed our engagement in the grounds of Stowe. We had such a great afternoon, and the photos captured exactly what we wanted. When we later got married in the middle of social restrictions, Kim was extremely accommodating, and was such a hit with our guests that she basically became part of the event! It made such a difference to have someone who got on so well with everyone, and the smiles and memories immortalised in her photos attest to that. When it came to our "full" wedding this year, again Kim did not disappoint, and we now have a beautiful array of photos to remind us of all the amazing moments of the day.

Nothing was ever too much trouble, and her turnaround was really quick. Our guests all loved her, and she has a super cute dog. Seriously, what more could you ask for?

Book Kim! You'll love her!

Neither my husband or I like being in front of the camera, but Kim made it so incredibly comfortable and fun! Kim brings a wonderful mix of friendliness and professionalism so you feel both able to enjoy your photos and also so relaxed you almost forget she's there (in the best way possible!). I had some specific shots I wanted and Kim was so accommodating, making sure all the details were captured, you would of thought we had a team of photographers with all the great shots we got! I really recommend Kim for someone who will help both you and your guests feel as ease (our families loved her!), and for her incredible ability to capture those moments you don't want to forget. Her editing is soft, warm and beautiful- and quick! You're in great hands when you book with Kim!

I adore our pictures

What can I say, I don’t think thank you will ever be enough for Kim.
We met Kim during an open day at our venue and we clicked straight away.
She was amazing with our little boy which was a massive win for us.
As soon as we left the venue we knew we wanted Kim to be our photographer and she didn’t disappoint.

For people who don’t feel comfortable with their pictures being taken/in the limelight, Kim was amazing at putting us at ease and making us have a bit of fun, whilst capturing the most incredible photos.

I adore the photos we have received, she captured our little family perfectly with photos we’ll cherish forever.

Thank you Kim for doing such amazing work. I’ll forever pick you.
Much love,
The Bevan’s xx

Amazing wedding photographer

How can I put into words how amazing Kim is?!
During our pre-shoot she made us feel really at ease. The wedding was incredible and Kim was a huge part of making the day so well organised and a joyous occasion. The pictures are absolutely amazing and exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much Kim for all your hard work!

Absolutely perfect!

Kim was an incredible huge part of our day! For a couple who are camera shy she made the whole day so easy and captured so many wonderful moments. The way Kim works with the venue to find the best locations and makes the whole day so smooth. The photos we received were above and beyond our expectations and love the natural shots we didn’t even know were happening. We are very thankful for making our day extra special and can not recommend enough if you’re looking for a photographer.

A perfect photographer!

Kim was absolutely fantastic! She put us completely at ease - we're not naturals at being photographed! - and she became a perfect part of our wedding. Kim got every single photo we could have hoped for, capturing beautiful formal photographs and gorgeous candids. The pre-shoot is excellent and gives you a chance to become comfortable in front of the camera. On the day itself, Kim works seamlessly with your wedding day and captures every moment. I can't thank Kim enough for taking such beautiful photos. We are so grateful and cannot recommend her enough!

Amazing photographer!

We couldn’t recommend Kim more to have as your wedding photographer. If you are after someone to capture natural style photos and also the feeling of the day, she is the person! Kim is super friendly and will put you at ease while having your photo taken resulting in lovely candid and relaxed photos. We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos and would also highly recommend Kim if you are getting married at Stratton Court Barn as she knows the venue and the other suppliers so well that it put our minds at ease for the day. We are really happy that we chose Kim as our wedding photographer!

Obsessed 😭

There aren't enough words to describe how glad we are that we chose Kim to capture our wedding day.
She was so approachable throughout the whole process - from initial zoom meeting to hand- delivering our USB stick afterwards, we felt we could contact her any time.
On the wedding day itself it felt more like having a good friend alongside us. She was there to help with everything from buttonhole-pinning, to dress fluffing, being a hype-girl and everything in between. She worked seamlessly with our videographer and chatted happily with guests. Everyone felt so at ease (including us!) and the photos reflect that.
We loved her style from the very beginning and could not be more pleased with our photos. They tell a true story of our day to help us remember it forever. It's hard to choose which are our favourites as they are all STUNNING 💕
Kim will absolutely be our first choice for any future photography needs and we would not hesitate to recommend her!

Unforgettable❤️

We found Kim as she had be hired to do my friends wedding, and we fell in love with how their pre-wedding photoshoot photos looked that Kim did, and we knew straight away we wanted her to photograph our big day!😍
She even came and said hello at our friends wedding to meet us, which was so cute!
But from the moment we met her, it felt like meeting an old friend, she is so lovely, warm, inviting, so natural with helping to position us for our photos, we could not stop smiling and laughing from beginning to end, with both pre-wedding photoshoot and wedding day!
She felt like part of the family, and we can not thank her enough for what she has done for us🥰 you will not regret having Kim as part of your special day, she captured our day so well, and we adore the photos so much, they really show how much fun we had on our day🥹❤️ We can not rave about her enough😍
Thank you so much Kim, we will be using you again in the future❤️

Above and beyond!!

Kim really does go above and beyond for her couples. She made myself and my husband feel so at ease on our big day. She has the ability to make anyone and everyone feel calm, and at ease in front of a camera! She’s not only super talented but also kind, warm and funnny! Once you choose Kim to capture one special occasion, you’ll then never be able to choose anyone else! We have already booked Kim again to capture our family before Christmas and we intend to keep hiring Kim for every major life event as she really is just a dreamy photographer and dreamy person. ❤️

1000% recommend Kim!

We booked Kim for our wedding back in August this year. From the minute we met Kim we knew she was the photographer for us. Kim is just the nicest, bubbliest person you will meet! Nothing is too much trouble. She was so enthusiastic and genuinely interested in our wedding plans.
On big day itself she continued to bring her bubbly energy and made us feel very relaxed. Everyone has complimented our photos!

We welcomed our son in January 2023 and booked a newborn shoot with Kim, she captured so many beautiful photos.


Thank you so much Kim - on both occasions, you have captured moments we will cherish forever. You are officially our family photographer and look forward to more shoots with you in the future. Steph, Charlie & Sebastian

More than just a photographer 🤍

Words cannot express how truly grateful we are to have had Kim be a part of our wedding day! From the moment we met her she made us feel at ease and comfortable. We laughed, cried and made incredible memories together.
Kim is more than just your photographer, she’s your extra bridesmaid, your right hand woman and the most friendly, bubbly human you could ever hope to meet!
We are so in love with our photos and cannot wait for Kim to photograph ours and our families lives again in the future. You will never regret booking Kim, she is one in a million!
Thank you Kim, more than you’ll ever know 🤍

The best photographer!

When booking Kim, you are getting more than just a talented wedding photographer. Kim is creative, down-to-earth and her energy is contagious. During our pre-shoot, she quickly showed us how she could maximise any surrounding to create beautiful images. On the wedding day, Kim's positivity kept me calm and relaxed. She offered many helpful tips, like spraying my veil with perfume, and even assisted me with my dress. Throughout the organised photos, Kim's bubbly personality put everyone at ease. Our guests even commented on how she fitted in and felt like a friend, which we wholeheartedly agree with. Dom and I are incredibly grateful for Kim and her work. Her photos perfectly capture the memories of our day, and we'll cherish them for years to come. We're already looking forward to booking another shoot with her once we get a little sausage dog!

Perfect Wedding Photographer!!

Kim… how do we start to write a review? What can we say about someone who is just so fabulous?! From the moment Kim arrived at our mum’s house, to the moment she left, she had everyone relaxed and comfortable especially when there was a camera around! Nothing was too much trouble; from fluffing Gemma’s dress, to helping cut our wedding cake, to trying to control the goats!
The next morning one of the things we both commented on first was how well Kim fitted in with all our guests and how it felt like we had known her for a long time, as we felt so at ease and we certainly had some laughs along the way! We know it’s Kim’s job, however, she clearly loves what she does and we truly had a great day. Having seen our engagement photos and our wedding sneak peaks, we know the rest of our gallery will be beautiful! Kim is so talented and we absolutely love her relaxed natural style. We would 100% recommend her!! Thank you so much!! 💞
