Howdy! *waves*

I'm Kim! - Portfolio under ongoing construction!

My love of a good photo probably started back in 2009 when I was taking passable pictures of the local beaches with my Nokia N95 and editing them in Windows Photo Gallery which made me ridiculously happy. Fast forwarding to 2022 - I took a course in NCFE Level 1 Photography at the local college with an experienced friend who mentored me pre- and post- Course, and helped me identify what I wanted to do. I'm now two and a half years into into my Photography journey and am keen to explore things on my own.

[★] Areas of Interest

• Goth/Punk/Alternative Fashion. I'm a massive fan of brightly coloured hair, dreads, tattoos, piercings and interesting outfits.
• Beach Shoots - I would love to do a Mermaid shoot and have many items to compliment one.
• Drag Queens. I photographed a Pride event this Summer but much prefer one-to-one promotional shots.
• Charity event folk on their individual journey. I was asked to photograph/document a Charity skydive for a friend in the Summer and thoroughly enjoyed it. 
• Also keen to hear your ideas. Let's make some Magic!

[★] Locations

I live a short distance from the town bus station and can access most routes. When in doubt - there is always Googlemaps and following the red dot! At this time, I can't offer my home as a location, but I'm happy to negotiate outdoor/indoor locations. Areas covered are: Hartlepool, Durham, Sunderland etc.

[★] Availability

At the moment, I'm just focusing on Uploading and curating my Portfolio on an hour a day. If you like what you see - we could schedule time in the future!

[★] Compensation

See above with Availability - I'm working on establishing a Portfolio for the time being and would like to explore working with experienced Models in the near future.
