Hi! I’m “SOTE” but my government name is Kim Willoughby, hahaha. I’m the girl that brides cry to on the phone. If I were in your wedding party, i’d probably be the maid of honor. And when it comes to weddings, they’re my entire creative world. I love them with every fiber of my being and I live and breathe weddings.
You might be wondering, why should I choose Kim? Well, if we end up working together its ONLY because we were meant for each other. In the past few excruciating years of enduring every kind of bride, wedding, venue, planner, etc, i’ve completely mastered the art of weddings. In my learning, grew a deep love. And in my deep love, comes only a selective few that I choose to take on for their wedding day.
Another reason why you should choose me is because I would actually genuinely care about you as a person. I’ve prayed with brides, given things for free, moved payment dates, just been a compassionate and kind human being for someone whose already stressed beyond belief. I want to be the one that you think of and your mind says “phew. at least my photographer is going to be fine”
oh! is this the part where i talk about myself? okay, lets see…
at 24 years old i’ve recently discovered that i’m more creative than i thought. I love to ((take pictures, duh)) sing, write, create art… if you’re ever sitting at home wondering what i am doing, i’m probably doing something creative.
photography-wise, i’ve been shooting professionally for almost 4 years now and i started off with just getting a professional camera to do family vlogs. From there, way out of my own control, i was able to snowball right into the wedding industry and through endurance, running full-speed no stop lights, and absorbing every lesson from shooting over 200+ weddings, i’ve finally found the ground i’m walking on.
familial-y, i am a mom of 4 babies ((and yes, we want more!)) and i am absolutely in love with my husband, moses, who helps me out with the business while also being a full-time ceo of his nonprofit “The Way Foundation” - i admire him so much and his work for the community.
and spiritually, well, i guess you can say i would die for the cross. if you want to talk about God, i’m game. if the Holy Spirit is moving, i’m jumping, running, screaming praises to God. I believe in Jesus Christ is God and baptism by water and the filling of the holy spirit.
and lastly, everything i do, i operate in love. in professionalism. in honesty and integrity. i’m unafraid to do what is right and extremely afraid to do anything wrong. i’m so excited to hopefully meet you & photograph the literal most fun/important day of your life!
