Lallie Charles (1869–1919) was an Irish photographer. Along with her sister Rita Martin, she was one of the most commercially successful women portraitists of the early 20th century.
Charles was a society photographer. In 1896, she opened her first studio, The Nook, at 1 Titchfield Road, Regent’s Park, London. In 1897, Rita Martin, her sister, went to work with her. In 1906, Martin opened her own studio at 27 Baker Street and the two sisters became competitors. The following year, Charles moved to 39A Curzon Street, where she became the “foremost female portrait photographer of her day”.
Charles died in Mayfair, London, in 1919. Take a look at these vintage photos to see portraits of Edwardian beauties taken by Lallie Charles in the 1900s and 1910s.
