5 Reasons San Jose Families Keep Coming Back to Kim E Photography

5 Reasons San Jose Families Keep Coming Back to Kim E Photography

If you’ve ever tried to wrangle a toddler, a distracted teenager, and a dog into the same frame while also looking like you have it all together, you know family photos can be a lot. So finding the right photographer, especially in San Jose, is more than pretty portraits. It’s about finding someone who gets your family, makes the session feel like fun, and photographs your family’s story.

That’s what San Jose’s family photographer, Photos by Kim E is known for. Creating a photo session that looks like your family, not a stock image of it.

• She Makes It Feel Like a Good Time (Because It Is)

Most kids, dads and other family members might not jump for joy when they hear it’s time for a family photo day. And Photos by Kim E understands that. Her approach is fun and laid-back. There isn’t stand awkward and saying cheese, more like stand together, get cozy and make silly noises. There are laughs, goofing around and sometimes, if needed, bribery.

• You’re in Great Hands

Photos by Kim E has been doing this since 2009. That’s over 17 years of family sessions, brand shoots, newborns, milestone moments, and everything in between. She’s seen the meltdowns, the wardrobe messes, the kid who suddenly decides they hate cameras and she rolls with it.

When you book with Kim E, you’re getting someone who has spent thousands of hours learning how to draw out real, genuine moments from genuine people. That experience shows in her sessions.

• She Specializes in Real Families, Not Perfect Ones

Her style is authentic and candid which is a fancy way of saying she’s really good at capturing your family as you actually are, not as you think you’re supposed to look. The in-between moments. The snuggles. The silly faces. The way your youngest always tries to steal the spotlight.

Those are the photos you’ll cherish for decades.

• San Jose Families Trust Her and Keep Coming Back

One of the best signs of a great photographer? Repeat clients. Photos by Kim E has built a loyal community of families throughout San Jose, East Bay, SF Bay and even Los Angeles, who always return, and who sends their friends and family her way without hesitation.

When you work with someone who loves what she does and has been perfecting her craft for over 17 years, it shows. From the first inquiry to the moment you get your final gallery, the whole experience is easy, warm, and fun.
