Hi, I am Kimberly.


...and that cutie behind me in the photo above is the air in my lungs...literally. You might find him tagging along to hold the light or carry my equipment on our shoot together. My husband of 25 years is the reason I have been able to do what I love!


I am a passionate lover of Travel. In order to really appreciate everything this world has to offer, you have to be willing to bundle up and change your latitude every once in a while. Infact, this is us during a once in a lifetime trip to Scotland -2017.

While Florida is my home, I was born and raised in Eastern Oregon. My High School ambition of living in Florida became reality when the universe literally showed me the door to opportunity in 2006 so my husband and I picked up our kids and walked right through it. We have lived in the Pensacola area ever since.


3 short years later...


my childhood dream became a reality and Kimberly Petty Photography was established. Yes, My childhood Dream.


The photo to the right was taken in 1989, by a 10 year old at her aunt's Wedding... with a 110...Who then decided after seeing the developed pictures from the local Bi-Mart that Gee... I think I want to be Photographer.

So to sum it up.... h/s ambition of Living in Florida...Manifested!

Childhood Dream of becoming a photographer.... Manifested!

The Universe will bring you the opportunity for everything you desire. You just have to be able to recognize it and believe that it is yours for the taking. That is the Secret.

“I've been working with Kimberly for 10yrs for modeling and family photos. So of course when I got engaged I knew she was the one I wanted there to capture all our special moments. From 2 engagement sessions, to pre wedding events, and the wedding itself, the photos were just as beautiful as I imagined they'd be!
Kimberly's photography skills are amazing but she's also THE BEST to work with (including boudoir sessions💋).”

Though the distance she was able to help me with everything I needed to know about her services. After booking with her she was very helpful in setting up phone appointments and making wedding day timelines in order to do her best photographing my event. After the wedding I received my pictures about 5 weeks later and I absolutely loved how everything turned out.”
