Charles Newling was a photographer based in Mount Gambier in the 1890's and early 1900's. Prior to that time he had worked as a photographer in Victoria, based at Bairnsdale and then in Carlton. He was elected inaugural vice-president of the Mt Gambier Photographic Club at its first meeting in 1903. He left Mt Gambier in the following year and apparently moved to New Zealand.
