Mitch C. Davis

Mitch C. Davis a professional photographer and branding coach who helps clients seek out roles in modeling and acting. I enjoy the freedom that working freelance affords me and the chance to meet and help up-and-comers across the state.

"Freelancing gives me the ability to reach out to the average individual, to work with Mississippians and help produce quality actors and models as well as photography in the state,"

Mitchell Davis, a Jackson resident, attended Lanier High School and went to Southern Technical College in Jackson, which is now closed. My first opportunity to use my photography to help someone be discovered came when he photographed a male model named Ja'kel Marshall. We sent some of the pictures that I took to the production crew for the movie "The Help," which was filming in Jackson, and Marshall got the call to be an extra.

In 2012, I began to work as a branding coach, conducting photo shoots for prospective models and actors, and helping them work on resumes, networking and preparing portfolios to submit to casting companies.

I have also been part of larger productions, including assisting casting director and producer Maximus Wright with finding actors for the film "Soul Damage," which was recently in production in Jackson. Davis has completed more than 60 modeling and film contracts for Mississippians so far." The people I work with are newcomers just entering industry, but they work hard, and I work hard to help them get their roles," he says. "I give opportunities to people who might not have them. I'm working to help bring more productions to Mississippi and cast locals, so I can show people that Mississippi can be a big part of the movie and modeling industries." I have also been doing freelance work for the Jackson Free Press for five years, including helping out at the monthly Fondren's First Thursday events and the Best of Jackson party.
