Award Winning Wedding Photographer
George Pompilio
Hi, I’m George — the owner and photographer behind George Pompilio Photography.
I’m all about creating an exceptional, personalized experience for every couple I work with. Honestly, my entire business is built around my own pet peeves — when I hire someone, I want to feel like I actually matter. I want timely replies, clear communication, and to know that the person I spoke with is the same one showing up to do the job. That’s been a core part of my approach for the last 20 years I’ve been in the wedding industry.
You might be wondering how I got into photography — and the truth is, completely by accident. I actually started as a wedding DJ, but once I picked up a camera, there was no turning back. What really hooked me was the ability to create images that weren’t just snapshots — they were bold, dramatic, and looked nothing like what the eye typically sees.
Today, I don’t just capture timeless moments — I create epic, one-of-a-kind works of art. Some of my clients have even jokingly called me “the Thomas Kinkade of photography,” which I take as a huge compliment.
When I’m not photographing weddings, I’m probably entering (and winning) photo competitions. I’ve received awards from WPE, PROWED AWARD, ISPWP, and in 2025, I was honored to be named one of the Top 5 Photographers in the world by Flash Masters.
If you're looking for a photographer who’s hands-on, responsive, and passionate about creating something unforgettable, you’re in the right place. I’d love to hear more about your story.
