Hi, I’m J.D. Gee — the eye behind GeeBird Imaging and a lifelong storyteller through both images and leadership.
By day, I serve as a middle school principal, helping guide young minds and support great teaching. By night (and weekends), I transform into a photographer fueled by a passion for capturing life’s most meaningful moments. I’m also currently working toward my Doctorate in Educational Leadership — proving that growth, learning, and excellence are lifelong pursuits in all areas of life.
Photography is more than a creative outlet for me — it’s a way of connecting with people, preserving memories, and sharing authentic stories through the lens. Whether it’s a senior’s milestone portrait, a high-energy sporting event, or a candid family gathering, I approach each session with patience, precision, and a genuine desire to highlight what makes every moment unique.
My background in education, public service, and leadership has shaped the way I work: organized, reliable, and always focused on bringing out the best in others. I’ve spent over a decade serving my community in schools, on the fire department, and through local projects — and that same commitment carries over into every frame I shoot.
At GeeBird Imaging, I specialize in portrait sessions, sports photography, school events, and community storytelling. My style is natural, vivid, and emotion-driven — perfect for capturing the stories you’ll want to remember for years to come.
When I’m not leading a school, chasing light with my camera, or studying for my next big paper, I’m enjoying time with my wife and our little one, restoring our historic Victorian home, or spending quality time with friends and family.
Photography isn’t just a service I offer — it’s a personal promise to help you freeze time, frame joy, and revisit life’s highlights whenever you want.
Let’s capture your story together.
