Hi, I’m Lee Charlton, a multi-award-winning Hertfordshire photographer specialising in events and conferences, headshots and personal branding, property photography, and travel and tourism content.


I’ve spent more than 16 years working professionally as a photographer, including nine years travelling the world as Global Photography Manager for TUI. My clients and employers have also included the RHS, BBC, M&S and businesses of every size across the UK.


Whether I’m covering a conference, creating marketing content, photographing a property or documenting a destination, my approach is always the same: understand the brief, put people at ease and create photography that delivers results.
