they say...
"kim is a pleasure to work with for one big reason, routine excellence. i know i can count on her to do her job well, on time, and with a great attitude. that is why i will keep hiring her."
- chris elinchev, photographer and owner of small pond productions
"how could you not want to shoot with kim keyes? you are guaranteed an award worthy image. and that is not an overstatement, although kim would think so. she's a natural at shooting editorial. with 25 years of experience art directing, i can spot a natural a mile away. kim takes direction well, asks the right questions, listens and can make it happen. i actually get excited when kim turns in an assignment. i know her images will be vibrant, surprising, creative and beautifully lit. kim has made me look good over the years, and i oh so appreciate that."
- carolyn fath, isthmus newspaper art director
"kim is the photographer i think of when i have a very specific idea of what i am looking to shoot. she listens carefully to my vision and is always able to expand on the idea and help me create something better than what i imagined. her respect for the client and the concept is exceptional."
- cassandra deavers, tds telecom senior graphic designer
"i have worked with kim for more than ten years now and, if there's one that thing I can say about her, it is that it is impossible to ruffle her feathers. she has an artistic nature but not an artistic temperament. kim's matchless work ethic and her adventurous creative spirit make her a inspired and inspiring collaborative partner. i also appreciate that kim expresses herself directly yet thoughtfully. in other words, she knows how not to ruffle anyone else's feathers, too."
- lynn sandberg, product and on-figure stylist, chicago, il
"i love working with kim! besides the fact that she is very easy going and fun to work with, she has a great eye and is willing to jump in and make subtle suggestions that could improve a shot. she's extremely patient and has always been willing to go the extra mile to achieve the best possible shot."
- sarah nabbefeld, associate graphic designer, lands' end
