Kimi Photography in Portland, Oregon

How often do you take pictures of your loved ones? I am always so thankful when my clients come back to Kimi Photography like this family below. I have been a photographer for 11 years, and seeing the family and babies growing up makes me feel so joyful and honored to be their photographer. Kimi Photography is located in Portland, Oregon, capturing the love of families. Smart phones are useful and great for capturing your daily life. However, I enjoy creating family treasures by photographing special moments of love, meaning, and interaction to make the everlasting images with physical art work that your family can hold in their hands. I believe good pictures have a power to tell your love stories, and that the most important part of being a professional photographer is being a “treasure creator” to future generations. Even throughout my personal life I have experienced the importance of it.

I started my photography career after I came to the US. I was  raised in Osaka, Japan and came to the US as a college student. When I had a chance as a college student to see Pulitzer Prize winning pictures, I was so fascinated by the strong news story behind the scenes and power of photography. It changed my life. I graduated with a photojournalism degree in my college and started working as a contracted photographer and while capturing images I started getting some of my own awards in my early 20’s. I was young and it was more just for the fact that I loved doing it at the time.

After I spent a few years in the US, my family had a tragedy. My father past away suddenly. I was apart from my family at the time and I regretted that I did not have a chance to capture him and my family with him. I felt like I was chasing something I like in a different world, and I missed and left something way more important and precious to my life. The last picture of our family became the one we took for my 20-year-old coming of age ceremony. At the time, my mom complained about how expensive the printed art and announcement card were at the time, however, it's become her treasure now.

Not only did that tragedy wake me up to realizing a better reason to hold a camera, but also lets me think how I should create the images to last. Which hopefully gives families and their loved ones a reminder of what and who is really precious in their life for a long time.

Every photographer has their story and the reason why they hold a camera. My reason being a photographer is to create art as a treasure to my clients. Not just giving them the data, but Kimi Photography creates these cherish-able pieces and deliver the finished art to their hands.
