Let customers speak for us
from 5 reviewsI had the pleasure of working with Lee on a commissioned project, and I must say, his exceptional gift for turning ordinary photos into stunning works of art is truly remarkable. Lee transformed my well-framed but plain image of a plane on the tarmac, adding drama, depth, and creativity to make it truly striking. Lee’s vision and digital artistry far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend LJT Photography & Digital Art to anyone looking to elevate their images.
The moment I saw ‘Venetian Elegance,’ it was as if a window opened into my past. This photograph—its quiet alleyways, timeless architecture, and the subtle interplay of light and shadow—brought Venice rushing back to me. I spent time there many years ago, and the serenity captured in this image mirrored my early morning walks, when the streets felt like a whispered secret between me and the city. The texture and monochrome treatment lend it a nostalgic charm, making it more than just a photo—it’s a memory, elegantly preserved. The detail is exquisite, from the weathered walls to the charming osteria tucked in the distance. I’m truly grateful for this piece; it now hangs in my reading nook and never fails to evoke a smile and a quiet sigh. Bravo.
Lee’s photography is a beautiful blend of technical skill, heartfelt passion, and an intuitive ability to capture the soul of a moment. His high-quality images reflect a careful eye for detail and a commitment to his craft, while his enthusiasm for photography makes every shot an experience to view. Most impressively, Lee’s ability to freeze time in a way that stirs emotion ensures his photos are more than just pictures—they’re stories that connect us to the people and moments we cherish. I am a massive fan of Lee’s work, as his talent and heart make every click of the shutter something special for us to behold.
This reimagined portrait captures a face long symbolic of the rallying cry “Keeping the bastards honest.” Commissioned to rework the original frame, Lee brings a meticulous eye and contemporary nuance to the image—amplifying its resonance in today’s sociopolitical landscape.Street art, when rendered with purpose, becomes more than pigment on wall—it’s a public reminder of our collective duty to stay informed and vigilant. Through Lee’s lens, the subject is not just an icon, but a visual manifesto of accountability, reflection, and democratic integrity. I could not be happier with what Lee was able to produce with my image.I highly recommend Lee J Thatcher Photography & Digital Art.
Having just returned from Venice, I was searching for a piece that could keep those memories alive—a visual anchor to remind me of the charm, serenity, and timeless beauty of the city. ‘Venetian Elegance’ is exactly that. The photograph captures the quiet poetry of Venetian streets—the kind that linger in your heart long after you’ve left.The mood, the composition, and the subtle textures evoke everything I loved: early mornings by the canals, the hush before the city wakes, and the elegance tucked around every corner. It’s more than art—it’s a time capsule, and I’m so glad I found it.
