TO TELL A GOOD STORY, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND YOUR OWN. HERE'S MINE:
If you don't already know me, aloha!! I’m Kasey. and I am so happy you're here. For starters, I’m an Aquarius, + an Enneagram type 3, if that matters to you… I love Jesus, Tennessee (go vols), sushi, and people.
I am a wedding and elopement photographer and videographer for free-spirited couples and families seeking adventure and authenticity. I’ve photographed couples since 2016, documenting thousands of love stories! I am always eager to see the world, meet new friends, and am big into self development. On days off, you can find me at a coffee shop, rotting at the beach, or the gym.
—I started taking photos and videos on old camcorders from my grandfather’s attic. In middle school I was always taking pics of random things. My poor parents were constantly hearing “come look at this one!” When I was 15, my dad helped me take out a loan to pay for my very first big girl camera. It was $2,000 and it took me a full summer working in a factory to pay it off (thanks dad for the early intro to the world of credit…) That thing was my baby—I took it everywhere and even shot my first wedding with it when I was 16. From here my passion for weddings blossomed. Since then, I graduated college, moved away from my hometown, and moved again - to Hawai’i. Now, 8 years later, this passion has taken me on journeys I dreamed of and has given me incredible mentors, friends, and clients. I am so thankful for everything that led me to my current path. Just a small town Tennessee gal living out her dream life. Traveling the world will always be the biggest part of my life. So, if you're looking for a session far off, I’m your girl!
My intention going into any shoot is to create a safe space for communication. I capture all the smiley/posed shots that grandma will love, but creating those heart warming, personality shots is what sets my soul on fire. I focus on capturing candid moments, while directing and "posing" loosely to allow for interaction, which makes for special photos and films that tell YOUR story. You want couples photos on a mountain in Yosemite? My hiking boots are packed! Want a film with your lover in your pajamas? I’ll bring the snacks!
My clients mean the world to me, and I appreciate you for trusting me to document your precious memories!
