George Kamper was tapped to speak at the Portfolio Center in Atlanta last thursday. Jerry Burns, Department Head of the photography curriculum coordinated the event. It was a “Brown Bag” format where students and professionals attended while bringing their own lunch to the 2 hour talk. George showed and discussed his work, bringing his portfolio, a digital presentation and even shared some of his behind the scenes videos. They discussed everything from starting out in the assisting world to details about the commercial and editorial markets.

GK is being featured twice in this month’s issue of After Capture Magazine! The first article  is titled “George Kamper Fresh Light” and discusses George’s versatility, fresh perspective and even what type of camera he uses.

“His Range of expertise means that George feels just as comfortable producing a glittering product shoot for a jewelry company, as he does shooting hotels for the Miami tourism board. However, his real love is photographing people, with an emphasis on lifestyle, sports and fashion. His vibrant sports shots include beautifully lit images of runners in New York’s meat packing district and a series of his teenage son wake boarding against a bleached white sky. Elsewhere in his portfolio are endearing school scenes, brightly lit images of young people on the street, and lush fashion shoots using carefully chosen palates.” The article goes on to describe George’s college years as well as his future in the photography industry.

The second article in After Capture is titled “What’s Inside? George Kamper’s ‘A Grand Holiday’”. In this section, After Capture features artists and one of their images for a “telling you how it was done” piece. This month they picked George Kamper’s “Trump Chandelier” image. All the details from the location and model to the post work and printing are all there, along with behind the scenes photos. Pick up a copy of After Capture on news stands now! Or…..
