I am a photographer and documentary filmmaker from Kansas City Missouri with a college degree in psychology from Kansas State University and an associates degree in photography. I started working as a nature photographer and now focus on video journalism and creating documentaries. I currently work with local nonprofits to create moving program portrayals through photography and videography to raise program awareness and increase organizational funding.

Available booking on nights and weekends. Private tutoring for beginner to advanced photography classes and postproduction photo editing using Adobe Creative apps Lightroom Classic and Photoshop.

My name is Delevan Smith
My photography journey began at age 7 with a toy camera that didn't take pictures, and my imagination. Eventually my experience and creativity evolved alongside of technology. From imaginary pictures to the classic disposable, to DSLR. Highschool really opened me up to what the possibilities could really become with this passion. I got to develop actual film in a dark room and expand my reaches into learning about the world of video production.
Today I'm blessed to say that my lifelong hobby is becoming my career. It hasn't been easy, but it has been very rewarding.
One thing I have learned is that in order to grow and become better you need an open mind and be willing to learn something new every time you look through your lens. Always strive for better. Whether you are just picking up a camera, or if you're an avid hobbyist, or maybe you are a professional. We can all still learn something from each other.
