London - photographers
Georgia Glynn Smith is one of the world’s leading food and lifestyle photographers and commercial directors. She has photographed over 70 books for some of the biggest names in food, from Mary Berry, Gordon Ramsay and Nigel Slater to Peggy Porschen and Marcus Waring, and has also created dozens of bestsellers and award-winners for some of the newest names, including the latest 'Royal Marsden Cancer Cookbook'.
Georgia directs beautiful TV commercials and has made over 20 films for UK and international clients over the last few years. She can now be happily found at Bare Films.
Nothing gives Georgia more pleasure than being on set with a great crew. She is happy working on everything from massive 96-sheet billboard advertising to editorial and advertorial for magazines and newspapers, PR and, increasingly, directly for restaurants and brands. Her work has won many awards including the Glenfiddich Food and Drink Award for 'Best Food Photographer' and Pink Lady Documentary.
Georgia is renowned for her extraordinary graphic compositions, her warmth and supportiveness on set, her expert understanding of food and her nurturing of new emerging talent. She has an irrepressible love of good food, people, gardens and laughter and lives in Highbury, North London with Stefan Gates (her food writer/TV presenter husband), Daisy and Poppy (her two crazy daughters), and Tom and Cheeky, her two warring cats.
