A little about me.....

Thanks for stopping by my new site. The old site was getting tired so I moved to a blog format vs a "flashy" image site. So a little about me. I reside in Hamilton with my wife and children. Similar to you, we are a pretty busy family with lots of running around. Both our children are active in after school sports which you will see reflected in my photography.

I have been shooting for over 25 years, with a major focus in the last 5 years. I have a dual carerer. I am a Director of Marketing for a large consumer packaged goods company in Canada and I also have my photography business. Though you might not see the direct relation at first, there is one. The years of experience in the CPG industry has provided me with a extensive knowledge of product development and positioning in the retail world. I use this experience within my photography business as it allows me to choose products that fit todays style and have the appropriate costing. The product lines and the print options I provide are built on a simple guideline: Good:Better:Best.

You need to make sure your choices are aligned with your budget and your specific needs.

INVESTMENT IN THE BUSINESS

I also am pleased to provide you a modern and simple on line system for proofing and ordering your prints and my services. I believe this is the most consumer friendly photography site in the area. Please look for the link "Geoff's Online Store" on my BLOG. The other investment which I have made is in the leasing of a shooting space at The Imperial Cotton Center in Hamilton. When choosing your photographer look to see what investments they have made in their business,including equipment. You want the security of these investments behind your choice of services.

If you have any questions please feel free to call me or drop me an email.

Have been quite busy over the last few weeks so here are some things that have been going on around the studio.
-organized and completed a 40 family one day shoot on Dec 12th. It was a great success and we raised over $1200 with net proceeds being $750 to a local charity. You can see all of the images on section on the site called Geoff’s store.
-in November two other photographers joined using the space @ 270. Marta and Julie moved in November. They are a great addition to the facility and have a ton of experience in the Hamilton market.
-signed two weddings for 2010 in December which will be alot of fun.

So, if you have not done so yet, take a look thru the Geoff’s store section to see some of the images created in December.
