Kim Dillon Photography specializes in landscape, garden, architectural, and outdoor living photography, creating a custom library of images that guides viewers through a project as if they’re experiencing it in person.

Each photograph is thoughtfully composed to capture plantings, garden structure, atmosphere, and the intimate moments that bring the design to life - imagery that goes beyond basic snapshots to communicate how a space feels and the craftsmanship behind it.
