After a few years teaching, a major change of direction took place into the world of Photography. He soon came to the attention of Harrods who invited him to open the Italiaander Portrait Studio at the store and from where all portraiture for Harrods clients was commissioned. After a few years, Gary left Harrods to allow greater freedom to travel to assignments abroad and to develop other significant projects. He has been involved with many photographic organisations within the UK and was awarded an Honorary Membership of the Master Photographers Association, received as a gesture of thanks for work raising funds for charities in association with MPA photographers throughout the United Kingdom. Gary continues to work with a variety of charities, as he has done throughout his working life. Apart from his photographic work being widely published, he has tested photographic inkjet paper for Ilford and his work has been used on their packaging worldwide. In addition, he has represented Olympus cameras.
Gary, who is a sought-after Guest Speaker, travels the globe entertaining audiences with many amazing anecdotes and fascinating stories.
