how it all started

I purchased my first camera at 15 and have gone on to shoot red carpets in Cannes, sports commercials in London, A-listers in New York, and of course, Nashville’s hottest models.

Representation

I encourage anyone who identifies as LGBTQIA+ or BIPOC to reach out.

Let’s find a way to make you feel represented in a way that works for you. 

Casey Newell - A young man sitting on a step outdoors, wearing a black jacket, beige pants, dark sunglasses, and a black hat, with a white brick wall and some dried plants behind him.
Casey Newell - A young man dancing outdoors on a paved area with benches and a pavilion in the background, wearing a black jacket, grey sweater, a plaid scarf, black pants, and loafers.

My natural, relaxed approach is supported by a rigorous and intense technical knowledge that I’ve learned directly from world-class talent.

FILM

My projects have screened in Oscar and BAFTA-qualifying festivals around the world.

I learned everything I know about cameras from my career as a cinematographer, colorist and editor.

When I’m not working in the media industries, I enjoy playing tennis and dancing ballet, learning languages, and playing piano, drums and guitar.
