Meet the Artist

Hi! I’m Leslie Parrott - yes, like the bird!
For over 17 years, I’ve photographed people, places, and products—collaborating with clients to translate their vision into high-quality, consistent imagery. I love working with people, but I’m equally inspired by beautifully designed spaces and thoughtful details.
I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from the San Francisco Art Institute and also studied at Rhode Island School of Design, Carnegie Mellon and Semester at Sea. Before going full-time with photography, I worked in sales, marketing, and content management—experience that gives me a unique edge when it comes to understanding brand vision and delivering strategic, visually compelling content.
My expertise spans creative direction, production, consulting, styling and post production. I’ve worked with major brands like Marriott, Booking.com, P.F. Chang’s, Google, Four Seasons, Ann Sacks, Olay, Hilton Garden Inn and their respective marketing agencies. My work has been featured in editorials such as Coastal Living, Lonely Planet, Sports Illustrated, Photo District News, Travel Channel, New York Observer, Belle Meade Lifestyle magazine as well as on billboard advertisements worldwide.
Based in Nashville, I work with people locally, across the U.S. and internationally. Whether you're building a brand or just need that one great cover shot - I’m here to help you bring it to life!
