Biography
Lee Frost is one of the UK’s most renowned landscape and travel photographers and one of the world’s best-selling photography authors.
At age 15 Lee came across a brick-like Soviet Zenith 35mm SLR and quickly came to realise, that he had found his calling. He was still a teenager, when his work started to appear in the UK photographic press. In 1988 he entered a portfolio of travel images into a competition in SLR Photography Magazine and won. The prize was an all-expenses-paid week shadowing a professional photographer shooting for a holiday brochure. In addition, he got the job of Features Writer on the same magazine. Writing turned out to be Lee’s second calling. He helped to launch and produce the highly successful Photo Answers magazine and eventually became its editor. He was also an assistant editor of Practical Photography.
Since 1992, when Lee was 25, he has been working as a freelance photographer. More than 20 years, 20 books, hundreds of magazine articles, hundreds of thousands of images and millions of words later, he is still going strong. For the last ten years he has been conducting highly sought after photography workshops and photo tours around the world through his company Photo Adventures, passing on his passion for all things photographic to like-minded souls.
He is more enthusiastic, more inspired, more committed to making photographs than ever before, as the next bend in the road, the next hill, the next sunrise or sunset, the next county or country might be holding an all-different new view.
Photo Art
Over the years, Lee Frost has left his mark on photography and photography in turn has left his mark on him. With his keen eye and intense curiosity he brings the excitement of a child to his way of viewing the world. Lee has stated repeatedly, that he does not consider his photography work, but a way to be able to spend life without having to work. This statement really is indication of Lee’s commitment and his enthusiasm to what he sees and his urge to share it with others. What he shows in his pictures is his absorption by his visual experience, absorbing it in turn. It is this synthesis of the photographer and his image, which characterizes Lee Frost’s photographic exploration of a world, which never fails to fill him with amazement. The assuredness with which he again and again turns this amazement into images of both power and sensitivity makes him a true polyglot of photography, familiar with every possible aspect involved in its creative process. Contrasts and colour schemes speak the loudest languages in Lee’s photographic world, but there are many more layers to discover, speaking to much most than just the eye.
