“And black and white is always in fashion!” says Kim.Kim feels that Black and white images give a more lasting product at the end of the day “Black and white gives and everlasting image and feeling. Colours fade over the years. And the tones change as well but Black and white won’t fade like that They might turn yellowish - or sepia - which is a nice ageing process that lends the photo even more depth.

Also diffident Kim enjoys the bustle of weddings. He enjoys meeting all kinds of people and seeing many curious things. As a photographer he does not feel outside the event but very much a part of the friends and family Kim feels that that is why he can take a good picture - he is part of that picture. He is also there. Indeed Kim’s stint as a photojournalist must have been useful here as his spontaneity is important here. “The wedding day is more Fun than the studio picture day because I can feel the happiness of the couple. In the studio, it is more of a challenge for me because I have to get them to pose in a way that will make a good picture and a flattering one too.

“When I am doing the shoot, I’m a very serious person. Other photographers may be able to talk and joke but that is just not me. I know my quietness may put some of my couples off but the taste is in the pudding…when they come and look at the photographs. They will be very pleased that I was not joking but really doing my job seriously and carefully!”
