Hey there!
Welcome to Through George’s Lens.
Glad you made it. Where do I start? Well I’m a South Oxfordshire-based photographer, videographer, and creative director, specialising in all events, corporate branding and portraiture. I love shooting candid, in-the-moment images that capture the subject’s essence and emotions in the finest detail. My videography work has also helped the organic growth of other businesses.
It’s not a job, it’s a passion
You will receive content that you will be passionate about too and that’s my guarantee to you.
It began with a dream.
It was all a dream, I used to create pictures with acrylic paints (a small Notorious B.I.G reference there). But truly I love colours and composition, there’s just something inspiring about a picture that tells a story or one that makes you feel an unexpected emotion. A perfect image (not just in pixels) but also in the energy that it reflects, has the ability to make you connect with a time that you may not even have existed. How phenomenal is that?
What inspired me to take this craft further and indeed, what cemented my love of photography and videography, was capturing moments in time that are truly special to people. I think we all realise, especially lately, that life is short and that we must savour every moment. With that in mind, I love to help people retain their memories of loved ones and important times. We all hold these moments in our hearts, and I see my work as imprints of this. Often, when people are asked what possession they would save if they could only select one, they pick their photos and video albums. That is what inspires me to do what I do. Whether it’s an event or a couple’s special day, I love to ensure your precious moments are captured forever.
I’d love to help you with any project that you have in mind and I am perfectly placed to come to any area in the South of England or the Midlands but can also travel further if necessary. Please check out the Contact Me page for a free consultation. I would love to hear from you!
“A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.”
― Ansel Adams
“To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.”
― Henri Cartier-Bresson
“Art is what we call...the thing an artist does.
It's not the medium or the oil or the price or whether it hangs on a wall or you eat it. What matters, what makes it art, is that the person who made it overcame the resistance, ignored the voice of doubt, and made something worth making. Something risky. Something human.
Art is not in the ...eye of the beholder. It's in the soul of the artist.”
― Seth Godin
A dream achieved usually starts with stacks of small steps. Whatever your goal could be visually, my mission is to help you to bring it to life.
