Hey! I’m Kim. I photograph weddings in Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and the Caribbean. In addition to my eye for color, love of gorgeous light and my technical skills, I bring to the table a very diverse life experience. Being raised by a theater professor, while being a member of the US Freestyle Ski Team, taught me to relate to just about every personality type out there! The all-American boys and girls to the very eclectic, quirky, lovable and very accepting theater crowd and everyone in between! I say this because I feel it is essential to be able to relate to you and bring out your beautiful soul. I will make you comfortable and If you are comfortable, you will be yourself. If you are yourself, the photos will be organic, authentic and MAGICAL!

About Kim
I cannot say enough good things about Kim Chapman Photography! I've gotten so many compliments on my engagement photos and my wedding photos. She is able to work some magic with lighting to make the photos absolutely beautiful. She was also incredibly professional to work with, was always on time, and set clear expectations for how the process would work. In addition, I got my photos back so quickly, which was amazing! I would definitely recommend working with Kim for your wedding or event.

Oh my god. What can I say about Kim? She is FABULOUS, and takes the most stunning pictures you could ever imagine. Kim is someone who truly knows her work, and loves it. You can feel how much she enjoys taking pictures and capturing the moments for you. We had a short engagement - 6 months - and it didn't end up working out that we had time for engagement photos. Kim suggested doing something after the wedding, called a "Rock the Dress" shoot. I was intrigued, and it was perfect! My husband and I got to put our wedding outfits back on 2 months after the wedding and take photos on the beach, lying in the sand and even in the water! But beyond that, at the wedding Kim was able to direct us to the best shots, come up with some creative ideas and capture all of the formal photos that I was hoping for! Kim is wonderfully talented and we were so grateful to her for capturing our wedding day!!

We just wanted to reach out to you to let you know how overwhelmingly happy we are with your gorgeous photographs from our wedding and all of our wedding contest events. Looking through them all we were so emotional. They all were absolutely beautiful and captured all of the amazing moments and feelings from our day. We especially loved the moments that you captured from the girls getting ready shots and our incredible formals on that beautiful green background. You are so talented and artistic and the emotions shine through so clearly in your work, it is really breathtaking and we are so fortunate to have these incredible memories. We are so incredibly thankful for all of your hard work throughout this process and for being by our side the entire way. We also couldn't be happier with your photo that was chosen for the cover of the magazine- beautiful and so artistic and colorful. We are currently working on getting all of your reviews done on wedding websites so that we can tell everyone how amazing you are!

Kim was nothing short of fabulous on our wedding day. She was attentive and a pleasure to work with. She was able to capture the day’s most memorable moments and was so easy to work with as someone who is not always fond of being in front of a camera. If you’re looking for someone to photograph your special day, there’s no one better than Kim.

Kim did an amazing job with our wedding producing stunning, high quality pictures that we will treasure for a lifetime. Along with her second shooter, Kim truly captured our big day perfectly and we are so happy with how our photos came out. Her photos stood out to us when we were searching for a photographer and our pictures came out looking better than we could have ever imagined.

Kim, you don't even know… these pictures are incredible! I, Kerry that is, cried happy tears when I saw a few of the shots you got. Specifically, the totally candid shot of all of my girls getting me dressed in a hurry, and the fact that you got a picture of my ring on my starfish shoes! You may be surprised that those shots out of all of them were what did it for me, but those were two shots I was really hoping came through after the day ended! You really did catch everything and Debbie was fabulous as well. We look forward to getting the flash drive! Again thank you so much for these memories; it is a good thing we have a lot of wall space because our house just might become a "wedding museum" gallery

Kim is AMAZING. I fell in love with her work when I saw a picture of hers gracing the cover of Seacoast Weddings in January. I then decided to give up a few things so that I could fit her into my budget, and I am so glad I did. Kim knows exactly what she is doing, and I learned from our engagement shoot that if she tells you to do a pose that feels awkward, do it, because it's going to come out amazing! On our wedding day she insisted we go in the stairwell of our church, saying it would make a beautiful picture. Boy was she right. The photo turned out being one of our favorites, and looks like something out of a Disney movie! Not only is she talented, but Kim is very responsive and so sweet. I would choose her a hundred times over as my photographer. I have gotten many messages from people saying our photos are the most beautiful they've ever seen, and that they even made them tear up, and this was coming from people I don't know extremely well! Having Kim as your photographer poses only one problem, you won't be able to decide which ones to put up on the wall!
