Experience the Uniqueness of Passmore Photography
– A Tribute to Lee Passmore

The iconic saying, 'U May Pass More Photographers, But No More Like Passmore,' adorned all of my great grandfather's work vehicles, and this website pays homage to the man, his life, and his incredible body of work.
Levi Nickerson Passmore, a prominent figure in the commercial photography scene during the early twentieth century, left an indelible mark on San Diego, the city he moved to in 1906, when the land where he built his home was just sage brush.
​Operating under the name Lee Passmore, his photographic prowess captured the essence of early life in the burgeoning city. His lens immortalized scenes of maritime trade, naval ships, and the picturesque backcountry roads and vistas that have become synonymous with his name. Moreover, enthusiasts of natural history can delve into his later role as a field naturalist.
Within these virtual pages, uncover details about his life, explore his remarkable body of work, and gain insights into the legacy he created for his family.
