About Us
At George Pompilio Photography, I don’t just take pictures — I create bold, artistic images that you would be excited to hang on your wall. Couples come to me because photography isn’t just a checkbox for them — it’s one of the most important parts of the day. They want someone who brings both creativity and experience, and who’s hands-on from the very start. When you book with me, you get me — not a studio rep or a team of strangers. I’ll walk you through everything from your timeline to your final gallery, making sure every detail is intentional and beautifully captured. My work is known for rich color, dramatic light, and emotion you can feel. Some have even called me the Thomas Kinkade of photography.
If you’re drawn to cinematic storytelling, luxury wall art, and images that don’t just look good now but will still feel timeless 30 years from now — we’re probably a great fit. I’ve been honored with awards from WPE, ISPWP, PROWED AWARD, and in 2025, I was named one of the Top 5 Flash Photographers in the World by Flash Masters. But what matters most to me is earning the trust of every couple I work with. Based in NYC and working throughout New Jersey and Long Island — if you're looking for a photographer who shows up with heart, vision, and a deep respect for your story, let’s connect.
