About Me
Jerry Lexion, a native of Los Angeles, began his photography journey at 16, capturing spontaneous moments at family events with disposable cameras. This experience sparked a passion for visual storytelling that evolved into a career spanning over two decades. In Jerry’s words, “Being able to look at old, archived pictures of my father and grandfather made me want to duplicate that same feeling. I realized very soon that freezing a moment in time made that moment last forever. I truly love being able to see something in someone they cannot see in themselves, and the surprised look on their face once they see what I have captured is priceless. Being able to manipulate light has been one of my true pleasures; photography lighting fascinates me, which is the reason I believe for my choosing this particular medium of art.”
