About

“Solo Female Roaming The Globe with Her Lens”

Currently based in Eastern and Southern Africa, Leticia Cox (aka LensTraveller) is a Spanish-born, internationally acclaimed, award-winning photographer, investigative journalist, and Nikon South Africa instructor.

Leticia Cox has whetted her craft over many years, becoming a master of storytelling portraiture with a unique focus on faces. Her skill lies in her ability to encapsulate the essence of an individual, creating a compelling narrative within a single frame. Whether in the controlled environment of a studio or on location in a bustling city or remote landscape, Leticia’s versatility shines through. She can spend mere minutes with a famous subject or invest weeks in the field at far-flung destinations, always bringing the same level of style, professionalism and technical prowess to her work.

Leticia’s approach is a testament to her relentless curiosity and meticulousness. Each portrait is a result of her deep understanding of her subject, meticulously selecting vibrant and compelling locations that enhance the story she aims to tell. Her unparalleled expertise in lighting allows her to accentuate the unique features of each face she captures, ensuring the lighting is not just beautiful, but also a perfect reflection of the individual’s story.

One of Leticia’s most acclaimed collections is “She Makes Broken Look Beautiful.” This series is a touching compilation of portraits and the powerful stories behind them. Each image in this collection tells a tale of resilience and beauty in the face of misfortune. Leticia’s ability to make her subjects’ vulnerabilities shine through as strengths is a testament to her skill and sensitivity as a photographer. These portraits are not just images; they are unforgettable, durable, and memorable pieces of art that speak volumes about the human condition.

Through her lens, Leticia captures more than just a face. She captures a story, a moment, an essence that lingers long after the viewer has looked away. Her work is a testament to the power of portraiture to connect, to convey, and to inspire.
