Creatively Capturing Moments

About 
Luke Letchford

Having grown up around cameras, the young Australian born Letchford points his lens to his subjects with a pure and honest perspective that many seasoned photographers may look past.  

 

Well travelled, Luke has spent more than half of his 12 years in countries away from his country of birth immersed in many cultures and developing deep relationships globally, providing an open mind and heart to all he sees.

 

Already mastering full manual operation of complicated systems such as Lecia M series and a marvel with drones, photoshop and other computer programs as well as being familiar with darkroom analogue printing Luke is always pushing the boundaries  to make sure his vision of images is seen. His disregard for the technical, is overridden by how the image should feel or the story it should tell.

​

‘When I do see a photo I would like to capture it’s like I feel it first and just point my lens. I love to capture a moment with movement, humor or clever timing in photographs - to me it more like capturing a true moment in time, like a silent movie”

​

He is a passionate titler of his images often creating titles as he captures his subjects an important part of his creative storytelling process.

​

Luke Letchford's photographs are superb and serve as a warning of how much is at risk in the Anthropocene era if we fail to reduce the impact of climate change and pollution. The photographs work best when they explore natural and human interaction - a lone surfer catching a wave on Byron Bay in Australia; a fishing vessel off the coast of Ngawi New Zealand competing for a catch with a pod of dolphins at its bow; a jogger with a dog running through shallow water on a pristine Gold Coast beach in Queensland as the drone picks out lines in the sand that are reminiscent of Nazca geoglyphs in Southern Peru. Letchford's surfaces shimmer with saturated colour and iridescent light. His photographs have the same impact as colour field paintings and draw the viewer into different landscapes: from the spring tundra of North-East Canada where an inquisitive polar bear meets our gaze to the biodiversity hotspot of Hawaii where a Turneresque landscape of clouds forms a celestial circle around the setting sun. All these photographs beautifully capture their subjects and are stark reminders of the fragility of ecosystems which will not survive the depredation and degradation caused by mass tourism, global warming, consumerism and pollution.
