our approach
At Shorelines Illustrated, everything begins with story and setting.
To illustrate is to bring something to life, and that is at the heart of what we do. We capture the beauty, rhythm, and experience of coastal living through an editorial lens, translating places, brands, and moments into stories that feel both aspirational and real.
From seaside destinations and thoughtfully designed spaces to memorable meals and everyday coastal rituals, our work is rooted in place and guided by a strong sense of style and perspective.
We believe the most impactful content does more than showcase. It invites people in. It creates a sense of connection to a place, a feeling, and a way of living that stays with them.
Through photography, video, and written storytelling, we illustrate brands and destinations in a way that feels seamless, authentic, and deeply considered.
collaborations, media, & brands
We are proud to collaborate with leading brands, media, and destinations across New England and beyond.
about kim
Kim Thomas is the founder of Shorelines Illustrated and New England Coastal Creative, a media platform and creative network rooted in coastal New England.
With a background spanning design, branding, and content creation, Kim began her career on Wall Street, where she developed a sharp eye for strategy, presentation, and storytelling. She later followed her creative path, building a career across stationery, gifts, fashion, and home, all inspired by the coastal lifestyle she continues to share today.
In 2016, she launched Shorelines Illustrated as a way to capture and celebrate the beauty, character, and rhythm of life along the shore. As the platform grew, so did the community around it, leading to the creation of New England Coastal Creative, an extension of that world focused on connection, collaboration, and bringing brands and creatives together.
Today, Kim works at the intersection of editorial, content, and community, partnering with brands, destinations, and media to create thoughtful, visually driven storytelling across New England and beyond.
Based in Greenwich, Connecticut, she has built lasting relationships with leading resorts, travel partners, and lifestyle brands, along with an extensive network of editors, creators, and collaborators.
She is most at home by the water, always discovering, connecting, and telling the next great coastal story.
