Kent Smith’s mission is to open people’s eyes to the extraordinary in what might seem ordinary. As a professional photographer, his portfolio includes sports, fashion, lifestyle and entertainment images.
“My philosophy is to make heroes out of everyday people,” Smith said. He strives to capture the true emotion, personality and intensity in each of his subjects.
Smith lives and works out of Charlotte, N.C. He is the team photographer for Carolina Panthers NFL team and Charlotte Bobcats NBA team, and was the team photographer for the Carolina Hurricanes hockey team and Charlotte Hornets NBA team.

His passion for photography surfaced at age 12 when his parents gave him a point-and-shoot camera for his birthday. He credits his family for providing an environment that nurtured his creativity and personal exploration.
“Some people spend a lifetime searching for one true passion,” Smith said. “but I am spending a lifetime perfecting one passion – photography.”
