I recently had the pleasure of photographing this lovely couple at the Arboretum in June. Though temperatures were high this mom-to-be was a real trooper through it all. It was a delight to share in (and capture) their joy!

As we get ready to jump into the second half of 2022, please note the following changes to Kirstin Bimson Photography's COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines:

For all shoot types, Kirstin and any associate photographers will wear a KN95/N95 face mask throughout shooting hours, regardless of client vaccination status. Kirstin also receives regular COVID-19 testing. Test results and proof of vaccination status are available upon request to clients.

If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact.

Exciting news--just as the headline states, It's finally happened! While the second shot was a doozy, I am so grateful to finally be fully vaccinated. This, obviously, has some exciting implications for my photography work as well which I had largely put aside for much of the pandemic.

Thus, I am happy to announce that Kirstin Bimson Photography will now be accepting fully-outdoor weddings for the summer and fall of 2021! As I have for the past 6 months or so, I will continue to accept socially distanced outdoor photo shoots for families, individuals, pets, and seniors. Standard precautions will apply (mask, social distance), but I'm excited to get back to work.

If you've recently been vaccinated and are eager to get to that long "to-do" list that's been gathering dust, feel free to pop over to my contact page to inquire about a shoot or details on my wedding photography packages and availability.

Be well, and happy vaccination!

What a handsome guy! We did the shoot throughout the Wildhorse Golf Course in Davis, which was so picturesque in the evening.

Such a great set of subjects. Love a smilin' pup and their human!

I had the absolute pleasure of photographing a wonderful couple this morning, Alissa and Cameron, at the UC Davis Arboretum. They were so much fun, and so in love! It was a delight to capture the strength of their connection and the joy they took in each other's company. Thank you both so much!

Last summer for George Street Photo & Video I shot a beautiful wedding up in the foothills at the Forest House Lodge in Forest Hill, California. It was sunny and beautiful and the bride and groom were glowing! Here's a handful of shots from that wedding, with more to follow soon.

Well, I'm finally catching up on some posts this year. Earlier this spring I had the pleasure of photographing the very adorable Lippman family at an Almond Grove just outside Davis. Though it was a bit foggy the blossoms (and the Lippmans) were beautiful! More from this shoot to come.

This past week I got together with one of my favorite families for some family and maternity portraits in the evening sunshine at one of Davis' many parks. I got some great smiles, and will be posting more shots soon of the newest member of the family!
