It has been six months since I became a San Diego photographer - or a photographer in San Diego.

I had spent the previous five years in San Jose working in corporate, and creating the building blocks to myself as a professional. During this time I had also been working on my chops as a photographer, wearing many hats as a wedding photographer, event photographer and portrait photographer.

It was in December 2020 when I decided to leave it all behind for San Diego to pursue my career as a photographer. Since moving here, I’ve been mainly focused on portrait photography, lifestyle photography and fashion photography.

What I love about San Diego is the amount of creative energy and folks looking to make a name for themselves here. Below is a gallery from my work with Shyann Lockhart who has been one of my favorite artist to work with.

The goal of 2021 has been to build my network and establish the KDigitals name in the scene. As much as I love photography and am confident in myself, I am also conscious that I am entering a saturated market filled with lots of talent and competition. Right now it is a matter of breaking through that noise and showing people I am someone to worth paying attention to (and hiring).

This year is all about building the foundation to the house.
