My approach to Family Portraits

Every family has a story uniquely their own, and my passion is capturing yours with authenticity and heart. From the early days of couples and newlyweds to the joys of maternity, newborns, growing families, and cherished grandparents, I celebrate every chapter of life. My style blends the classic beauty of posed portraits with the magic of spontaneous, unscripted moments. With a sharp eye for detail, I focus on the fleeting smiles, tender touches, and shared laughter that define your family’s connection. Together, we’ll create a collection of heartfelt images meant to be treasured for generations.

  • “Kim Zahnow is an absolute pleasure to work with. Not only is her photography beautiful, but the experience is also wonderful. Kim is warm, creative, passionate and unassuming. She puts you at ease and makes you feel comfortable right away. She is awesome with kids, my kids love having their pictures taken by her. We have used her for family photos, senior pictures, birthday photos, Christmas Card pictures and promotional photos and every time she exceeds my expectations. I highly recommend using her for your next photo shoot. You won't be disappointed!”

  • “Kim is such an amazing photographer! Not only does she have an incredible eye for lighting and positioning, but she also has a great way of making people feel very comfortable in order to get the best natural expressions. She had my 12 year old son laughing, and my teenage daughter smiling. Our entire family really had fun with this photo shoot, and I couldn’t be happier with Kim’s photos….. great way of capturing memories that we’ll hold onto for a lifetime!”

  • “Every few years my family vacations in Saugatuck, Michigan. Kim has photographed my family twice over the past few years and she is AMAZING.
    The first time was for family and engagement photos for my son and his future wife.
    This year Kim photographed my growing family that includes our granddaughter. Kim is creative, open and so fun to work with. We have a son with mobility issues and Kim was so accommodating. We will definitely use her again!”

  • “It’s not very often I receive a product and or service and want to jump right on a Google review. Kim at Zahnow Photography is fantastic to work with. My wife and I live in Chicago and we were doing a weekend getaway in western Michigan - We reached out to Kim to have our family photographed. She is extremely easy to work with, a great communicator, and a real joy to spend time with. In my professional career, I have worked with several high-end professional photographers, Kim has an incredible eye, awesome attention to detail, and is true high-end photographer. Thanks, Kim!”
