Kasey Smith
 
Your hype woman with a camera
 
Hey, I’m Kasey —
Your photographer, hype woman, music-obsessed beauty bestie, and occasional supplier of questionable levels of superhero trivia.
I'm here for the big personalities, the soft hearts, the people who love hard, and anyone who's ever thought, “I want photos of myself that actually feel like me.”
I make colorful, expressive portraits and love stories with an editorial edge—and I'll help you feel at home in front of the camera while we make them.
a camera, a creative family and a whole lot of story telling.
I come from a long line of chefs, crafters, and creative souls. When my parents handed me a disposable camera at ten, they probably had no idea they were setting something in motion.
I've loved storytelling ever since. Over the years, I've photographed big celebrations full of music and movement, along with quieter moments between people who mean the world to each other.
What keeps me hooked is getting to notice the little things: someone's personality coming through in a photograph, the way two people look at each other when they forget I'm there, or a moment that makes someone say, “Wait… is that really me?”
That's the magic I want to make room for with Soft Rebel.
Personality firsts. Always.

Your hype woman. Not your posing drill sergeant.
You don't need to arrive knowing what to do with your hands. That's literally my job. 😂
I'll give you direction, offer encouragement, and throw in a playful prompt when the moment needs it. Sometimes I'll ask you to move, laugh, or whip your hair back and forth like Willow Smith. Sometimes the best thing I can do is give you space and let a moment unfold.
I pay attention to your energy and adjust as we go. My goal isn't to turn you into a model. It's to help you settle in enough that your personality has room to come through.
Me, off the clock(-ish).
My go-to Dutch Bros order? A black raspberry iced tea with two cane sugars (usually powering me through an editing marathon).
Confession: You’ll probably find fruit snack wrappers in my camera bag at all times.
When I’m not photographing or editing, I’m baking sweet treats, diving into comics and movies, or chasing the next perfect playlist.
Think we'd make a good team?
If you're looking got photographs with personality, a little edge, and room to be completely yourself, I'd love to hear what you have in mind.
Whether it's a portrait session, photos with your favorite person, or a milestone you want to remember lets dream up something that feels like you.
Portrait bookings are currently paused. Join the waitlist to hear when the next dates open.
 
"HER STYLE IS FUN AND ABSOLUTELY STUNNING... HIGHLY RECOMMEND KASEY FOR ANYONE LOOKING FOR A TALENTED AND PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER."
