Cass Bird’s profession in photography has afforded her many opportunities. She kicked off her time behind the lens, filming her upcoming friends in entertainment. Her first paid gig was with TV Guide. When 2003 rolled around, she photographed musician JD Samson’s “Lesbian Calendar,” which helped thrust her work into the spotlight. By 2005, she’d worked with several companies, including Nike and Converse, as well as showcasing her pictures in galleries.
Since then, her career has continued to thrive. Bird has been the mastermind behind multiple prestigious magazine shoots, such as Reese Witherspoon’s July 2023 Harper’s Bazaar spread and Issa Rae’s Elle Magazine cover in October 2022. In addition to her still imagery, Bird has also dabbled in filmmaking. She has shot a short video for Orbitz in 2021, highlighting the love within same-sex couples. The year prior, Bird filmed an interview with a former human trafficker as part of a project with Open Door Foundation Romania, a non-profit that helps trafficking victims.
