Hi, I’m Gerry Fortilus, a New York-based photographer specializing in product, event, portrait, and pet photography. Over the years I’ve led photography projects for merchandise and social media, managing creative teams to produce imagery that boosts engagement, brand recognition, and sales.
I love crafting visual stories that feel authentic and vibrant, from studio lighting setups to post-processing for polished final images. When I’m not shooting, I mentor a small team of content creators and collaborate with brands to elevate their online presence through compelling visuals.
