Jereme Thaxton

About

Jereme is an internationally published photographer and filmmaker specializing in action sports and hospitality for both editorial and commercial clients around the globe.

He grew up in Fayetteville, North Carolina; Berlin, Germany; and Southside, Tennessee. Three cities that have absolutely nothing in common other than the fact that there was a military base nearby. Somehow though, they built a little character. Along the way he got into shooting video in the 6th grade and started his career with pushing the little round button. Thanks to his dad and the Department of Defense, got his hands on some expensive night vision gear and hooked it up to a Hi 8 camera so he could record the nocturnal habits of white-tailed deer to prove his science class hypothesis. This project also placed him quite high in the science fair when he wowed the judges with his ingenuity, creativity and slick presentation skills. Some 20 years later he continues to shoot projects and wow judges which now include art directors and film producers and they represent major names such as Heineken, NBC Sports, Ford and LL Bean.

When he is not traveling for work, you can find Jereme sailing, fly fishing or training for his next triathlon. He received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Tennessee and two master’s degrees from Virginia Tech and is currently based in the Washington, DC area with his lovely wife Cynthia.
