A recently developed nonperturbative chiral approach to describe the S=-1 meson-baryon reactions has been extended to investigate the near threshold $K^- p \to \gamma \Lambda, \gamma \Sigma^0$ reactions. With the parameters governed by chiral SU(3) symmetry, we show that the predicted branching ratios $\Gamma_{K^- p \to \gamma \Lambda}/\Gamma_{K^- p \to all}$ and $\Gamma_{K^-p\to \gamma \Sigma^0}/\Gamma_{K^- p \to all}$ are close to the experimental values. The coupling with the $\eta$ channels, which was shown to be important in the $S=-1$ meson-baryon reactions, is also found to be significant here. Our results are consistent with the interpretation of the $\Lambda(1405)$ as a quasi-bound meson-baryon state as found in other similar chiral approaches.
