The Pickled Heron debuts a new local artists work on
our walls every first Friday.
“All I'm trying to do is have fun looking
for interesting pictures! If somebody else happens to like them, then that's great!" - Georgi Anastasov
For the month of February, we are featuring the work of talented
photographer, Georgi Anastasov. Georgi was born and raised in Bulgaria. He began doing photography as a hobby, with
no formal training, and it became a passion and later, a career. Georgi spent most of his days doing freelance work for editorial,
documentary and fashion assignments. His work has been featured in such publications as "Intro", NewsBg", and
"one Week in Sophia". Georgi came to America in 2005. Due to the lauguage barrier, he found the photojournalism
was no longer in his comfort zone and switched his focus to wedding photography. Capturing peoples special moments and presenting
them as a magazine photographer would, drew Georgi many accolades. He started his on business in 2010 and that year wone first
place in the Rangerfinder Publishing Competions "Emerge" category for up and coming wedding photographers. Also
in 2010, his work was included in the printed catalog and the prestigious final exhibit of the "International Photographic
Salon Varna 2010". When we asked Georgi about his style, he told us, "As far as my style!?! All I can say is that
I feel influences from everywhere- my photojournalistic experience, my love of fine art and my passion for beauty!" We
at The Pickled Heron are so excited to be surrounded by the romantic moments that Georgi has captured for so many couples.
Stop by and enjoy them while you dine!
