Sussex Wedding Photographer

I’m lucky enough to live and work on the border of the incredibly beautiful counties of East and West Sussex and I spend many hours every week walking, running and cycling over them. I’m also lucky to shoot many weddings in East and West Sussex and I always bring my love of nature and the beautiful landscapes into my work. Along with the epic landscapes I take a natural documentary approach to weddings, creating beautiful images with my couples that are full of energy and emotion.

I’m a Sussex wedding photographer who’s based in Brighton and I’m perfectly situated to cover weddings in the counties of East Sussex,West Sussex, Hampshire, Surrey, Kent and London. If you’re looking for a modern, reportage / documentary wedding photographer to cover your surrey wedding or home counties wedding or Sussex wedding you’ve come to the right place. Here’s a little information to help you choose your Sussex wedding venue and links to some of my recent weddings at those venues.

The priory and its possessions was then granted to Thomas Cromwell. Following Cromwell’s execution in 1540, it was granted to Anne of Cleves. The existing Priory’s East and North wings were built in the 13th Century and the later addition of the West wing in the 16th Century, built around the same time as the timber barn. As a bride and groom you have so much to enjoy here, the stunning architecture of the Priory itself, the majesty of the grade II listed barn or the extensive gardens that are the icing on the cake for any wedding.
