Lee Cooper — woodland &

nature photographer, New Forest

About

Photographer. Visual storyteller. Voice of the forest.

Lee Cooper is an award-winning woodland and nature photographer based in the New Forest, Hampshire. Working exclusively with natural light, Lee captures the quiet, fleeting moments that define these ancient landscapes — mist drifting through oak trees at first light, soft autumn colour settling over the forest floor, and the deep stillness that only exists in wild places, early in the morning, before the world wakes up.

His landscape and woodland photography has been featured by the BBC, ITV, Sky News, Forestry England, and the National Trust, and his commercial clients include globally recognised names such as Sony, Adobe, MPB, FSC, and the Woodland Trust. Lee's imagery has appeared in exhibitions and collections across the UK, and his fine art nature prints hang in luxury homes and thoughtfully designed interiors nationwide.

Rooted in the landscapes of the New Forest and wider Britain, Lee's work resonates with collectors, conservationists, and creative brands who understand that the right image doesn't just decorate a space — it changes how you feel inside it.

When he's not shooting, Lee is almost certainly in the forest anyway.
