ABOUT GILMAR SMITH
- ORLANDO CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHER -

Hello, I am Gilmar Smith, a Nikon Ambassador and Orlando-based photographer known for my unique and creative approach to photography. My work has been published in esteemed publications such as The New York Times and People Magazine. I also had my own column in Photoshop User magazine, where I provided tips, tricks, tutorials, and reviews of photography lighting, software, and plugins.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of speaking on amazing stages about my love for art, photography, and creativity, both in the US and internationally. I have developed a unique photography style that sets my work apart in the industry. I had the exciting opportunity to bring an idea for a photography competition show to fruition with KelbyOne, where I also had the honor of hosting the show called “Cropped”.

I’ve photographed celebrities and people I admire, helping many individuals bring their ideas to life through my camera. My work has elevated brands and businesses, and I have cherished families with the most fun and memorable photography heirlooms. I constantly learn and experiment to create something fun and unique, remaining at the forefront of the photography industry.

Besides being a busy professional photographer, I am also passionate about teaching photography, lighting, retouching, and inspirational classes at the most distinguished conferences and summits.

Let’s create something amazing together that tells your story and captures the heart of your brand. Contact me today to book your session and start this exciting journey!
