ABOUT ME
- My Business Venture -
​
Greetings! I am Gerald Perey – a freelance photographer based in Harrow, London, United Kingdom. My primary interests are in street, travel and nature photography, but I provide photography services for portraiture and commissioned photography opportunities. I have also created an online store for those who would love to have a piece of my work in their home. So please do visit the store or get in touch if you would like to learn more about my photography.
​
- My Background -
​
My background is in Mechanical Engineering and Building Services Engineering where I have developed a career in the lighting design industry. When it came to photography, I was self-taught learning through experience, while gathering knowledge and inspiration from fellow photographers. Photography has always been a passion of mine, but I have never truly pursued it... until now.
​
Travel is a fundamental source of my inspiration in photography. From seeing the world and experiencing various cultures to adapting to the destination – it is all a great learning experience. I am especially keen to explore the regions of South East Asia, such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Hong Kong, as well as revisiting Japan.
However, due to full-time employment, I do not get to travel as often as I would like. This leads me to pursue my other passion – street photography; the beauty in the everyday, which often gets overlooked in the hustle and bustle of modern life.
​
Recently, I have developed a particular interest in nature photography. After acquiring a macro lens, I became very keen in photographing flowers, plants and all things of the natural world. It was an outlet for me to enjoy photography in more peaceful setting. I am always looking to grow and learn this craft, and this has been such an experience.
​
If this sort of journey sounds interesting to you, please join me along the way by following my blog, contacting me on the relevant social media outlets or direct via email. Additionally, you can also subscribe to the website.
I am a responsive person that will interact with messages or comments and even suggestions so we can all grow this into a welcoming community.
