Featured Member Interview with Kenny Kim
kennyKenny Kim has only been a full-time wedding photographer for the past three and a half years but already he's turning heads in the industry.

Kenny's advice, "Work hard. Think Different. Push yourself. Love God and live for something greater than yourself. My joy comes from serving people and photography has allowed me to provide images that will help them capture memories that they can cherish for years down the road. I want to continue to be excellent at what I do and use that platform to be an example to those around me."
