DAVID GODFREY

David Godfrey, a photographer driven by an innate passion, makes a comeback with the Gotham Studios Melbourne Artists Collective at the upcoming Affordable Art Fair in Melbourne 29 August – 1 September 2024.

From his earliest memories, Godfrey's fascination with photography was ignited by his father's guidance and a desire to capture moments that make memories come alive. While drawing and painting held their own appeal, photography became his ultimate outlet for artistic expression.

Having explored various avenues of image-making throughout his life, Godfrey's passion for wildlife photography flourished. He discovered a profound love for capturing the unique personalities of birds in his local park. Through his lens, he unveils the invisible, inviting viewers to witness the world through his discerning eyes.

Godfrey's exceptional talent has garnered numerous accolades, including prestigious awards from The Australian Institute of Professional Photography. His keen eye for detail and artistry has been recognised globally, with his wildlife print of a juvenile darter securing the highest-scoring print award in 2016. Additionally, his breathtaking landscape photograph taken in Guilin, China, earned him the esteemed title of Photographer of the Month in August 2018.
