You’re a part of the family, now come on in!
Hi, I’m Xavier, the photographer behind Jamison Photography, SC. My specialty is bringing out the best in my clients and genuinely making their sessions be a good time. During photoshoots I like to talk, laugh, and listen to music (let me create a personalized playlist for you!). I jokingly call my clients cousins because once you leave you’ll feel like family. And, just like family, when it comes to making sure that you have the best wedding, event, or family session, I got your back!
Meet Xavier,
Owner and Lead Photographer
I started my photography journey in 2016. I was asked by my previous co-worker what I wanted to do aside from working at my current job — he said it was always good to have a backup plan. He was a barber outside of being a biology teacher full time, who had the goal of opening a barber school and chain of barbershops. It was a question that I hadn’t put much thought into but since he brought it up, I dug a little deeper into my interests. I thought to myself: When I was younger I would always see pictures or places, and think to myself, “man, this is beautiful.” I would always think of ways that a photo could be captured and how it would be cool to save that exact moment in time, forever.
After that, I tried to find anything to take pictures of with my iPhone and even bought a set of lenses for phone camera. One day my co-worker saw me using the lenses and asked me to help him find creative ways to take pictures for his business. After I gave him some pointers he challenged me to create a business of my own with photography.
Then, I “went for broke” and bought my first camera that I never let leave my side. I spent months photographing everything in sight and finally had my first couple ask me to take their engagement photos. That was the day that I found my true passion in photography.
Needless to say, I accepted his challenge and created Jamison Photography.
