About
Georgina was born and brought up in Kenya. After winning two Wildlife Photographer of the Year awards in Kenya in 2005 she has become one
of Kenya`s most dynamic young photographers with experience in many different styles and genres of photography. Speaking fluent Swahili and
having a genuine understanding of many of Kenya`s tribal cultures, she has a unique ability for accessing and connecting with the people she photographs.
Self-taught, passionate and from a background of science, Georgina`s work has a strong and analytical style which gets gently but directly to the point of particular subjects and issues. Her work recently has been based on health – HIV, malaria, pediatric HIV – but also on location for commercial products as well as her feature and news coverage of the 2007-2008 Kenyan Crisis which continues to be widely shown.
Georgina is based in Kenya and has had her work published by the World Bank, the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, New York Times, the Financial Times, BBC, CNN, Reuters, the United Nations, Unicef, McClatchy Newspapers New York, Africa Geographic, Brand Magazine South Africa, and many others.
Hey Georgina!
it was great meeting you and I hope we cross paths again, later if not sooner.
I may try to head Nairobi way tomorrow but travel plans are still up in the air a bit.
You mentioned you’ll be gone for the weekend right?
Well, anyway get back if you get this.
cheers,
Isak

Hi Georgina,
Thanks for your interest in Photogrill on Twitter. Have you had a chance to see http://www.photogrill.com ? It’s where I interview photographers about making their strongest image. If you have time I’d be very happy to feature you there, perhaps talking about your Kenyan Election images.
Keep up the great work

Hello Georgina
I have just stumbled on you via a facebook contact, what brilliant photography!! Have you published your work? Being an ex-Kenyan, have a photographic book on your images would be very special.
