From the time he could crawl, it was evident Jackson Davis was destined to become a photographer. Nope, too formal. My appreciation for the "critical moment" was always keen and there was never any doubt as to my life's calling. No, that's not it. Okay. My earliest recollections are for the subtleties of the light as it refracted through my crib's mobile. 

Man, these bios are hard to write and this is starting to sound too much like the intro to "Manhattan" so I guess I'll just be honest with you....

Photography initially came to me as a means to an end. As a lifelong sports fanatic, one April evening while watching the NCAA basketball finals I noticed the photographers had the best seats in the house. Seats I wanted. I purchased a camera and decided I’d give it a go.

That was over two decades ago now and I’m proud to say I’ve created a career as a professional photographer. I'll also have to admit that I am a bit embarrassed to explain what got it all going. What started solely as a selfish desire for better tickets has led to one of the most wonderful, unexpected finds of my life.

Photography is an unexpected passion. It has made me wiser, more observant, patient, and focused. It continually challenges me to see the world in new ways, without judgement or preconception; and, I am truly lucky to have found it no matter how unromantic the means.
