Hi! It’s me, Kim Zahnow
I am a photographer and artist based in Saugatuck, Michigan.
"Art is standing with one hand extended into the universe and one hand extended into the world, and letting ourselves be a conduit for passing energy." ~Albert Einstein
This quote from Albert Einstein encompasses what it is like for me as a photographer and artist. This quote connects me to a greater purpose beyond putting paint on my canvas or clicking my shutter. I feel a personal calling as an artist to invite you into a place of connection, creativity, and storytelling.

Storyteller
Driven by a heartfelt desire to give a voice to the unseen and unheard, I uses the power of photography to forge deep connections and authentically tell the stories of individuals and communities.
Since 2019, I have photographed over 75 Coffee Farms and the communities they impact with Biggby Coffee's CEO and founder Bob Fish's project called One Bigg Island in Space. This incredible project has taken me to remote locations across Africa and Central America, showcasing the beauty and struggles of these often overlooked regions. I feel a responsibility to share my experiences and the stories I have heard to connect you to the world.
Concert and Event Photographer
Whether I’m capturing images for magazines, bands, festivals, or brands, my photography bridges the gap between fans and artists, capturing the passion that fuels their connection.
Writer
Writing has always been a constant in my life, offering a space where I can express my true self. From journals filled with dreams to lists of aspirations, writing helps me find clarity and meaning. It is my intention to share insights from my life as an artist with you. If you find a connection here, I invite you to share it with others, spreading a little light into their day as well.
