Greg Price Photography:
I have been involved in photography since 1972 and have been working full-time in the field since 1977. Since 1983 I have been a partner or principle in a number of commercial photography studios in the Union County, NJ, area. In August, 2003, I moved into a new studio in Metuchen, NJ, Studio 212. In December, 2013, we moved out of the studio because the building was closed down. My fields of specialty include public relations, commercial/industrial, publicity headshots, and glamour.

I graduated from Cranford High School. After 2 years in the US Army I attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City as a Fashion Photography major. I also have taken non-credit photography courses at the School of Visual Arts, the New School for Social Research and The Learning Annex. I have taken courses in Computer Basics and Photoshop at Union County College.
