Xavier is absolutely lovely to work with and I would recommend him to anyone! Over the past couple of years he has captured the spirit of March of the Mermaids perfectly in his photos. Thank you, Xavier!!

I have booked Xavier to shoot many events- from family festivals to club nights to concerts. He has a great eye, works hard to capture the perfect moment, is always friendly, punctual and professional. Highly recommended.

My Company 'The Betty Lou Gin Club' booked XC Photography for our 1920s Event at Stanmer House. The event covers 8 rooms and I have been told previously is extremely difficult lighting to shoot in! . Xavier was great and managed to get the most amazing photographs off all performers in all rooms whilst capturing the atmosphere of the night and staying true to our band! absolute photo ninja!! ***Highly Recommend*** More...

Faced with the daunting task of finding a photographer who might be able to help me convey both mood and a particular concept for an album cover I opted for Xavier and haven’t been disappointed. It’s also worth noting that he’s particularly good at capturing the spirit of live performances - not only does he create stunning images, but he does it so skilfully you’ll forget he’s there.

BN1 Magazine has worked with Xavier on several occasions and projects over the years and we've always been very impressed with the quality of photography produced!
His attention to detail and professional approach means we will always use XC Photography for anything high end that we publish.
I would highly recommend XC Photography for any event or location shots, especially when it comes to shows.

Although I wasn’t able to see this photographers work due to unforeseen circumstances, which lead to a cancellation I can’t fault the service I have been provided with. He was super helpful and professional and provided me with an alternative solution, which is now taking on the project. Xavier was extremely proactive from the beginning and kept in touch throughout the process to ensure he understood the requirements. I would recommend him to anyone and hope to be able to work with him in the future. More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
A good eye, patience, experience, and passion for what you do
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Is there anything specific you would like to have on the shoot? Is there anything else you need?
What do you love most about your job?
The chalenge from day to day, I enjoy meeting new clients as well as working through concepts and ideas.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been working in IT and client services for a number of years, but photography has always been bubbling under. After being published in Uncut, I knew this was the right thing to do, since making the plunge I have really enjoyed working with a range of people fromm Sylvester McCoy, Gomez, Amazon, to Bam Margera, Michael Eklund and The Ivy.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am passionate about what I do and I listen to my clients wants and needs as well as offering ideas and solutions to ensure that the end result is as envisioned. I also know how horrible i can be in front of the camera, I do everything I can to ensure that my clients are comfortable in front of the camera. I cover a variety of services from vents, head shots, promotion, commercial, lifestyle and more. I am fairly flexible with times, dates and locations. Lastly, I care a lot about what I do and I rely on my reputation to ensure I get more work, I am honest and if I am un able to commit to a date change I will ensure you will have another trusted photographer in my place.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
With the new restrictions, my services do include product and food photography, I can set up online meetings to ensure that the shoots are done to the customer brief, I can also share photos for review too.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
As part of my many changes, I ensure that any headshot/ lifestyle people shoots are beyond the current guidelines, I will maintain at least 2 metres distance, I will wear a mask when required, change of clothing between shots. I also sterilise the studio space before and after every shoot, I also require all people to take a temperature test prior to entering the premises. To find out more about my new COVID practices, please contact me directly.
