Roseatte Spoonbill (2010) Fotografia da George Wilson

Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, it was not until adulthood that George Wilson made Florida his home. Growing up in a family where paintbrushes, artists and galleries were commonplace, he picked up a camera at an early age never looking back. George traveled in Europe on the as an exchange student during high school with a camera recording the journey. These images produced his first major photography award from the Boston Globe Newspaper Company.

His professional career soon brought editorial work with organizations such as: The Springfield Union News, The Associated Press, The Chapel Hill News and The Gold Leaf Farmer. It was here that he was on the front lines for Breaking News, Sports and Feature Photography.

A tremendous influence on his early work were the photographs of Henri Cartier Bresson, Alfred Eisenstadt, Carl Mydans, Margaret Bourke-White and Robert Capa, who once said: “If your photographs are not good enough, then you are not close enough.”

Later work began to evolve into a drive for conservation of our wild spaces. Taking inspiration from Ansel Adams, Galen Rowell, Frans Lanting and Clyde Butcher. George is in the process of creating a body of work dedicated to the wilderness of Central Florida in hopes that through the medium of photography we all will be inspired to protect and preserve our natural resources.

“It is horrifying that we have to fight our own government to save the environment.” ~Ansel Adams
