Photography, Video & Visual Media
Creating moving messaging with image, film and art
People decide quickly whether a business feels trustworthy, and much of that decision is visual. Generic stock photos and dated graphics make even a great company look like everyone else. Original images of your people, your work, and your story do the opposite.
XiMation tells compelling stories with images created to move the viewer to engage. John Williams partners with talented photographers, videographers, and other creative specialists, who handle the shoots, to produce original work that strengthens your brand and motivates your customers, and he manages each project so you have one point of contact. We're based in Huntsville, Alabama, and serve clients locally and nationwide.

Frequently asked questions
Do you travel for photo and video shoots?
We're based in Huntsville, and John travels when a project calls for it. We'll confirm locations and any travel in the plan before work starts.
Who owns the images and video?
We'll agree on how you can use the finished work before the project starts, so there are no surprises later.
Can you match our existing brand?
Yes. We work from your logo, colors, and style so new visuals fit with what you already have, or we can help you develop a new look through our web and graphic design services.
How should we prepare for a shoot?
We'll walk you through what to have ready, including locations, wardrobe, people, and timing, so the day runs smoothly.
