About George Sheldon

I am a coffee-loving, light-chasing photojournalist that creates editorial photography. I produce editorial photography and images of a diverse range of subjects for editorial clients.  

I am a regular contributor of editorial photography to Alamy News Service and Shutterstock News. A variety of publications – including books, magazines, newspapers, and websites, regularly use my images. I also work on special editorial assignments.

My first images were sold when I was a teenager – it was news coverage of a major alarm fire in the City of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. That is what started my photojournalism path. Since that first sale, I have gained decades of experience working behind the camera creating all sorts of editorial images.

I am a Certified Unmanned Aircraft System UAS Pilot, commonly referred to as a Part 107 Drone Pilot. I am licensed and certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to commercially operate a drone. In addition, I have updated my certification and I am now permitted to operate a drone after dark, in accordance with FAA Rules.
