About
Gregory Murray
Greg is an experienced and nationally recognized lifestyle, portrait and commercial animal photographer, author and rescue animal advocate living in the Cleveland, Ohio area with his wife, two daughters, and two rescue dogs. He is dedicated to pit bull rescue, advocacy and ending “pit bull” dog bans. Greg, along with a group of dedicated individuals, helped end his hometown of Lakewood, Ohio’s 10 year ban on pit bull type dogs in 2018. He was born and raised in Lakewood, Ohio and also spent time growing up in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Greg earned his degree in business from Loyola University of Chicago and spent about ten years working a desk job at various private and non-profit organizations in Chicago, Atlanta and Cleveland. Greg left his 10 year long corporate career in early 2014. Shortly thereafter, he was a full-time photographer running his own business. Combining his love for animals and photography was the only natural thing to do. Two short years later, Greg began working on his first book, Peanut Butter Dogs, and was signed by a national publisher. Life is full of unexpected turns! He is now working on his 4th book that comes out in 2023. Instagram: @thegregmurray
