We have returned home from The National Art Museum of China. We are very honored and proud to be part of this significant historical show in Beijing.

Journey of the Heart: The National Art Museum of China 1839-2014
The 2014 “Journey of the Heart: Exhibition of Straight Photography Original Prints 1839-2014” will be a milestone as the beginning part of the “International Photographic Collection Series”. This exhibition attempts to reproduce a clear thread in the history of photography, along which developments of straight photography are combed through. Many photographic masterworks familiar to the public will be on display for the first time at the NAMOC.
Kimweston.com has a new design!
I am quite happy with this new design. It reflects the beauty of the black and white silver gelatin photographs. It's simple, yet beautiful and it is easy to navigate. We hope you enjoy browsing through it.
The Palm Desert Workshop Experience
Fun at September Wildcat Studio Nude Workshop
We had a really great time at the 2014 September Wildcat Studio Nude workshop this last weekend. We had a few returnees, which is always a good testimonial! We met several new photographers and 3 out of the 9 students were women. That made a nice mixing of the groups. In a predominantly male industry, we love having the opportunity to have women photographers participate in our nude workshops.
