He is indeed one of Abuja's finest photographers of all times and is gradually taken over the World of photography by storm.
Mr. George is one person who speaks with so much love and passion for what he does-
"I have always loved doing photography- I had my regular 9 to 5 job but I always wanted to do something I enjoyed doing and everything tilted towards the camera (I love taking pictures)".
It was indeed an interesting session, I was totally blown away by all the things he said......
What is your brand all about?
This is a photography Establishment that will evolve into a full media brand which would include videography, cinematography as well as advertisement.
How did you start off your business?
I started off with a website - www.mybirthdaypictures.com... Initially, I take pictures of celebrants on their birthdays and upload them on the website then get people to view their pictures in the website. After a while, I started taking professional pictures during weddings and events.
Your inspiration/s?
Obi somto, Jide Alakija, Dudu guy, Aisha Augi Kuta and Aisha Dapchi.
Any challenges?
First of all, importation of equipment due to the exchange rates. Secondly, most people don't value the work of a photographer (some people even think most photographers are dropouts) and lastly, the pressure that comes with the work- the massive pressure that comes with delivering the services expected as well as the pressure to be better and do better than before.
How do you overcome your challenges?

How do you overcome your challenges?
"I have come too far to quit now and the truth is I get a lot of motivation from people which helps me stay strong in what I do. Also, I am a very ambitious person- I want to prove to people that you can do what your mind sets to do in photography [no limitations at all]......WE ARE NOT SLOWING DOWN! in fact, we are about to do bigger things in the nearest future"
