Meet Les-Lee Lesch

Born in Oudtshoorn, South Africa, Les-Lee Lesch is a passionate portrait photographer whose journey began at the age of fifteen. Inspired by her mother, Nadine Lesch — a photographer herself — Les-Lee quickly fell in love with the art of capturing moments through a lens. What started as a curiosity soon became a calling.

After completing school, Les-Lee pursued her passion further by enrolling at The Photography Institute, where she earned her Professional Photography Diploma in 2019. Her early work focused on landscapes and nature, but it was portraiture that truly captivated her heart. Drawn to the depth, emotion, and movement within portrait photography, Les-Lee found her true artistic voice.

Today, Les-Lee is based in Worcester, South Africa, where she runs her studio from home. Her work is known for its warm, timeless feel — filled with emotion and intentional storytelling. Deeply inspired by the natural beauty of people from all walks of life, Les-Lee creates imagery that honors individuality, connection, and the quiet magic found in everyday moments.

Whether working with families, individuals, or couples, Les-Lee brings a calm, soulful presence to every session — making space for her clients to feel seen, valued, and beautifully themselves.
