Some photo sessions feel more like collaborations. Jessica Parker’s was one of those special moments.

As a certified Project Management Professional (PMP®) and a respected leader in Las Vegas, Jessica came in to update her professional headshots. But what we created went far beyond just taking pictures. It was a shared experience built on values: trust, purpose, and alignment.

Before the session, I asked her what made her choose me. Her response meant more than she probably realized. She said,
“Because I saw you support nonprofits. Even when things are hard, you still give back. That matters.”

Jessica understands the current landscape. As someone who works closely with nonprofits, she’s seen how funding has been cut due to new policies. Still, she believes in people who lead with their values. And that’s what drew her to my work.

After our session, Jessica shared this thoughtful reflection on LinkedIn:

“My recent experience with KimDung Ho for new headshots solidified my belief: nothing beats the human touch.
A skilled photographer collaborates to understand your goals, ensures your headshot aligns with your desired message, and guides you to feel confident.
My new headshots by KimDung Ho truly capture me, and I consider them an investment in my professional brand.”

She also left a beautifully detailed Google review that completely made my day:

“I recently had headshots taken at Kim Photography LLC, and I am delighted with the results.

From our initial contact, Kim communicated clearly and professionally, setting expectations and making the entire process seamless, including coordinating with the wonderful woman who did my hair and makeup (at my request). During the session, she created a comfortable and collaborative environment that made me feel completely at ease, something crucial for capturing authentic expressions.

She offered helpful guidance on posing that I can also apply in more casual photos in the future.

What truly sets Kim’s work apart is her ability to capture the essence of a person. She took a variety of shots, and the collaborative selection process afterward was invaluable. She not only helped me choose the best images, but truly “saw” and highlighted the visual message I wanted to convey.

If you’re looking for a photographer who can not only take a great picture but genuinely capture you in a way that is professional, authentic, and confidence-inspiring, look no further than Kim Photography LLC. I highly recommend!”

After the session, Jessica told me this wasn’t just a photo shoot. It was an investment. In herself. In her brand. In the image she presents professionally.

She also shared something I’ll never forget:
“Every job I’ve had in the last 20 years came through a referral. Someone who knew me. That’s why connection matters. People choose you before they need you, because of who you are. You are the brand.”

That reminder filled my heart. It brought clarity during a time that has felt uncertain. And it made me realize how valuable it is to stay aligned with what matters most: human connection, integrity, and showing up fully.

Jessica, thank you. For your trust, your energy, and your belief in what I do. You reminded me why I love this work so deeply.
