Hi. I’m George.

Based in the UK, but with extensive experience in East Africa, an area which was home since I was a child, I am a filmmaker and photographer. I’ve worked across the region and the world, predominantly on documentary films, whether for TV, brands or not-for-profit. My production company, LeakeyStudios, allows me to crew up and accommodate for a variety of projects. I am an owner-operator with; extensive kit available for a variety of requirements, a KCAA drone licence, vehicle and a comprehensive contact list to help in any situation.

I have set out my stall on being truly authentic to the story, with a desire to be uncompromisingly ethical, from trusting local talent when choosing who we bring on shoots to giving the microphone to those who need it, not who just want it. I’m driven by a desire to showcase the places, people and situations I encounter at the highest quality possible, yet truthfully.
