A professional photographer, coffee devotee, nap aficionado, kindness lover, introvert, and charming nerd...

Who's behind Knight Light Photography? The short, short version is simply Kimberly Knight. I am Central Illinois born and raised, went to college, got a computer programming degree, used it for a couple years in a job I didn't really dig, and then discovered my passion: photography.

The longer version is that I’ve been in business for almost ten years doing what I love…loving my clients and freezing their memories. My pictures are vibrant with true to life colors. I try to avoid fads or things that would date the images. My goal is always to create timeless pictures of clients. Knight Light Photography has always just been dedicated to capturing the heart of the subject.

The challenge of working with the location, the natural light, and the elements are part of the allure of photography for me. Everything revolves around light. What's the best light for a particular subject? And I am all about finding your light. Sometimes finding your light means a little bit of creative lighting and sometimes it's unaltered, warm evening light. Your light is as unique as you, and I am dedicated to finding it for you. It's kind of the unofficial mantra of Knight Light Photography.

“Finding your light” is more than just a mantra, though. It's a philosophy of life. It's not just how I shoot, but how I live. I strive every day to find the good in others and to show kindness to everyone I meet. Spreading light and love along the way as I stroll through life.

I shoot primarily on location natural light sessions but also have a small studio in my home for newborns and children. I specialize in baby & child photography, high school senior portraits, and family photography, serving the central Illinois areas including: Bloomington-Normal, Pontiac, and surrounding communities.
