JOHN CRAWFORD
Greetings beautiful people! Originally from Atlanta, I found my home in the breathtaking North Georgia Mountains in 2005, where I embraced the area's unique beauty and lifestyle. My creative journey started in music when I was trained as a classical musician and operated a musical instrument company for 20 years. My passion for performing music is part of my soul and I’m blessed to play and share this amazing gift at The Orchard Church in Ellijay. Alongside my love for music, I’ve developed a passion for guitar building which has become another creative outlet for me.
Photography, on the other hand, is part of who I am, it's something I've always done. I think a good photographer is more of an artist than a technician. They are able to capture special moments with a unique perspective. They simply see things differently.
For 15 years I’ve had the honor of being a Headshot and Portrait photographer with over 1000 images captured. My goal is to capture an accurate reflection of someone’s personality. I consider it a joy getting to know someone and we will have a blast creating making your vision a reality.
As a Real Estate photographer, I have assisted numerous real estate agents, custom builders and vacation rental property owners in successfully selling and marketing their homes. I stopped counting at 1200 homes completed in the North Georgia area. While I am slowing down on real estate photography I am still willing to discuss your project.
Recently, I’ve decided to print and document some of my local Landscapes and Nature photography. While traveling all over southern Appalachia doing real estate photography, I have had the opportunity to capture some breathtaking images of the mountains, rivers, lakes, and lush forests that make this area so special. Prints are available for purchase in downtown Ellijay or by giving me a call.
Join me in celebrating the art of photography and the moments that make life extraordinary! And remember—no “selfie” smiles and keep that chin forward!
Services:
Professional Headshots, Creative Portrait Sessions, Vacation Rental Photography, local Landscape Image Gallery and prints for purchase in downtown Ellijay.

John Crawford is an amazing artist (and an amazing man), but let's talk about his photography! If you look at his work, you can immediately sense his artful eye in framing a picture, no matter what the subject matter is--people, animals, landscape scenes or houses. I am a real estate agent, and John "shoots" all my houses and uses his drone when needed. He can do video too! I love John's work. The old adage is true " a picture is worth a thousand words", so why not let someone as skilled as John handle your photography? He's dependable, accurate, and again has just such amazing talent. If you are looking for any photography needs--John's the one! Couldn't recommend him more!
Donna Hester, Ellijay
I've known John for several years and you couldn't ask for a better photographer! He has the perfect personality to put people at ease for personal photos, but he has an eye for perfection as well. He recently did a photo shoot for the sale of our home and they turned out so well. We had an offer on our home immediately! He also uses a drone for great overhead shots. If you want beautiful pictures of your wedding, your family, your house, etc.. you can not go wrong with Photocentric Photography!

John was absolutely amazing! He was super friendly and very knowledgeable about different styles of photography. He made the whole experience fun and relaxing. The headshots turned out incredible! We will definitely return for future photo needs.
