Hello!

Hi there! We are Brittany + Michael "Smitty" Smith, but you can call us Britt + Smit. We're the husband + wife team behind the camera here at Kairos Photography, and we're thrilled you stopped by!

We've been in love for fifteen years, have four wild littles, and are lovers of all things creative. We've been musicians + songwriters for as long as we can remember; storytelling is in our blood. After the birth of our oldest, photography became a natural extension of that - a profoundly beautiful opportunity to capture and convey the narrative and emotion within a moment. 



Just a few months after our wedding, Smitty's mom passed away unexpectedly. Our wedding photos are the last and only photos we have together with her, and they are something we will truly treasure for as long as we live. They are now more than wedding photos. They are the physical representation of a legacy left behind, the tangible images that allow our children to see the grandmother they never met, to invite them into the stories they weren't able to experience firsthand. Photography is such a gift because through it, we can pause even the most fleeting moments and keep them close forever.

Aside from taking photos, we love making music, exploring new places, and spending time together as a family! Friday night pizza night is a weekly event in our home, and we've been known to get sucked into a TV series or two. 1883, anyone?! We are dreamers and doers, a little bit quirky, and a lot a bit in love. We adore meeting new people + making new friends, and hope we can get to know you sometime soon! 

kairos, pronounced "ky-ross,"
is a greek word for
a God-ordained moment in time.
