Xavier Clarke

Hi I'm Xavier (Brighton branding photographer), and I have to admit, I am not keen on writing about myself, it's not something that I think is of much interest to anyone else, but I will give it a try, I am not one for the spotlight, which is probably why I feel at home behind the camera!! Where to begin? I am sure you don't need to know about that time my dog dragged me through the snow at age three, so probably around 12, when I picked up my first SLR camera (you'll notice the lack of D, that wasn't a typo, there just wasn't such a thing as a Digital Single-lens Reflex camera, back then!). It was a big moment, as it was my dad's pride and joy, and I had to be very careful. Suffice it to say I was, and I fell in love with taking photos ever since! My passion for being behind the lens hasn't faltered, I love what I do, whether it is a corporate event, headshots, branding, or live music, it doesn't matter, so long as I have a camera in my hand, I am a happy person. My journey here has been an interesting one, from working and running bars to running support for a software company, with the occasional government contract thrown in for good measure, I even trained as a ninja, (but that's another story!), photography wasn't a planned career choice, but you have to take the opportunity when you can. Combining my skill behind the camera and customer-focused work history and ninja training, I had accidentally been branding all along, I just didn't know it! I love doing what I do, if you have been putting off getting your headshots, or just don't know where to begin, with getting your brand online drop me a line and let me get you started on your next adventure, stand out from the crowd with outstanding images!
