Geordie McRae, owner and principal photographer of Aussie Shots, started photography when he was 14 years of age.

In 1987 he started working full time at Australian Colour Laboratories, learning all the technical and behind the scenes work that goes into the photographic process.

He attended Sydney Technical College and received his Associate Diploma of Arts (Photography) (credit) in 1991.

During this time he worked as a wedding photographer, a commercial photographer, and then as a Publicity photographer for Channel TEN Sydney and SBS Sydney.

In 1994, he went freelance and Aussie Shots was born.

He has shot for TCN Nine Sydney, Foxtel, Optus vision, and Pacific Publications. His work has been published in Vogue, Woman's Weekly, front page images for the SMH, The Telegraph and the Australian and Cover shots for TV week, to name a few.

That said, he is just as happy being involved in the less “glamorous” side of photography, shooting products from fasteners ( zippers to you and me), engine parts, an asphalt paver at 2am for industry publications, retaining walls for production reports, books and CDs for Catalogues, to Corporate officers for Annual returns.

In 1995, Geordie took over Aerial Photographic Services. This has since been absorbed into Aussie Shots. Over the years he has done aerial photography all over Sydney, and also special assignments in Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Regional NSW including Orange, Dubbo and Tamworth.
