Dear friends,
I'm glad you found your way to our ABOUT page. At the end of the day, we're the people who'll be standing beside you on your wedding day — so let me introduce us properly.
We're a small team of three photographers, and if there's one thing worth knowing about us, it's this: after more than a thousand couples, we've never once taken a session lightly. A wedding, an elopement, an engagement shoot for a couple whose wedding someone else will photograph — we treat every one as if it were the only one.
What that means in practice is simple: we pay attention. We learn your story, we listen, and we build your day around it — because caring this much is simply how we're built.
If you keep scrolling, you'll find what we love doing when the cameras are down. If any of it overlaps with what you two love, tell us — honestly, it makes for the best icebreaker. (I'm writing this during the World Cup, watching England a little too closely.)
And one thing I truly mean: I can't wait to work with you. The moment your inquiry arrives — your venue, your date — I'm already there in my head. November in Yosemite? A dusting of snow, the waterfalls asleep for the season, and a few spots that will take your breath away that time of year.
Thank you for reading — and for letting me sit here a moment, imagining how wonderful your day is going to be.
With warmth,
Eugene —
on behalf of Eugene Kim Photography Team
Eugene Kim
I'm Eugene — the name on the door. I started Eugene Kim Photography in 2017 with a single belief: a wedding day should be felt for the rest of your life, not just documented. More than a thousand couples later, that hasn't changed. I shoot the quiet way — letting moments happen instead of staging them — and being bilingual in Korean and English lets me move easily between cultures and families on a day that often holds both. Everything about how we work as a team grew out of the standard I hold for my own couples. John and Leezy are here because they hold it too.
Leezy and I met online first — trading thoughts on Threads about the craft long before we met in person. When I came up to Seattle to shoot Mount Rainier and around downtown, she joined me to assist and see how I work with couples, and we clicked right away; not long after, we made it official. Leezy is the one who brings the bright, joyful, laughter-filled energy to a shoot — couples loosen up the second she's around. She's bilingual in Korean and English, like me, and she's based in Austin for 2026.
John and I met in Canada, at a photography workshop, and within one conversation we realized we approach this work the same way — the same instincts, the same things we care about. We've worked well together ever since. Behind the camera he's quiet and documentary, catching moments as they unfold. He's Filipino American, and when he's not shooting weddings he's a nurse — which tells you most of what you need to know about him: calm under pressure, and genuinely good with people.
Think we'd be a good fit?
