CHARLES HOWELLS’ passion for photography began at the tender age of 15. With dreams of being an artist, Charles was at an after-school life-drawing lesson when he decided to stick around for the next class, which just happened to be photography. He was hooked.

Charles is a rare photographer who is both technically expert and an artist behind the lens. His style results from an almost intuitive sense of his subject combined with mastery of light and form. He’s inspired by and involved in the whole creative process from generating ideas and designing technical solutions to finalizing his stunning images in post-production.

His work appears in top fashion magazines such as Harper's Bazaar, Karen, No, Grazia, Pilot and Black. His advertising clients are extensive, including Coke, Microsoft, Sony Japan, Samsung, Westfield, 42 Below, DB Breweries Beer, Volkswagen, Nissan, Mini, Greenpeace, Vodafone, Madori, Johnson & Johnson, Unilever, Panasonic, Nikon, L’Oréal and M.A.C. In New York, Charles worked on shoots with celebrities such as Britney Spears, Beyonce, Jay Z, The Black Eyed Peas, Kelis and Pharrell Williams, as well as advertisers L’Oreal Paris, Hugo Boss, Anna Sui and Pepsi.
