Your Bio

Hi, I'm Les.

I've been a photographer for about 40 years. I started with a little Nikkormat 35 back in '67 and have been taking pictures ever since. I've used a wide range of equipment from 35mm to 5x7" studio view cameras, photographing sports, nature, portraits, and weddings. I entirely shoot digital now graduating from a Canon G5 Powershot and a pair of Olympus SLRs, to most recently the Nikon D-300.

If I can assist you with a photographic need please don't hesitate to contact me at les@photosbyles.com. Thanks for looking...

Jessica and Miles : Engagement photos -- Jessica and Miles will marry March 14th. These are some images we made around Bath, NC Sunday past. Overcast skies, drizzling rain, and cold weather didn't deter this couple driving 2 hours to visit and have their images captured. We had to reschedule the Bridal Portrait for another date. There is no retouching on these images.

Barnscapes : Down east NC barns - I have a passion for the deteriorated barns, a sign that families have changed, sold, or moved on to other careers. Agriculture is big business here - farming and timber leading the rest.
