Lee Searle Photography

I got into photography at the age of 17 whilst recovering from an illness (Crohn’s disease). It became my therapy and focus during my recovery. Little did I know, that later on, it would soon become such a dominating factor in my life. Photography became my source of creativity and totally changed my perspective on how I see the world. My imagination was on fire.

I’ve always worked in the photography industry, I started out working for H Tempest and then went onto manage and work in various photography outlets before taking the plunge and heading out into life as a full time photographer. Which wasn’t an easy decision to make, I mean, I would be going from a full time wage packet to me being stood holding a camera and no wages. However I did have passion and time on my side, the perfect combination to make this happen.

I offer a variety of photography services and you could be here for any one of them. I often wonder if having such a wide range of services available would, in someways, seem less appealing than perhaps a photographer who specialises in what you are looking for. For me photography is all about photographing light, understanding it and how it has the ability to transform a subject into something truly spectacular. Having such a diverse background in photography enables me to apply all my knowledge into working with you. Whether it be photographing your wedding day or shooting a pasty for Philps, I put my heart and soul into it. 19 years working as a full time photographer, still going strong and loving it.
