More than 50 years ago, Georges Frances found joy in photography, capturing special moments of couples and families in cafes around Melbourne. With hard work and dedication, he turned that passion into a lifelong career.

With the support of fellow directors Wendy Field and Valerie Mewha, the business expanded beyond family photography to meet the growing demand for professional services—especially in graduations.

Today, The GFP Group is a leading provider of Graduation and Event Services across Australia. Partnering with universities, GFP creates seamless, memorable graduation experiences for thousands of graduates and their families each year.

At its core, GFP remains a value-driven family business, built on passion, expertise, and a dedicated team committed to celebrating life’s most important milestones.
