Wedding Photography in Sussex

No Cheese, Just Awesome Images!

Hey, I’m Pete

A fun-loving photographer with 12 years experience
…and proud Dad to 4 beautiful boys!

Now– I’m not here to make you do awkward prom poses or force you into a “romantic” stare-off while whispering sweet nothings (unless you really want to). It’s all about capturing the real moments—the belly laughs, the happy tears, and that one mate who thinks he’s a backup dancer for Beyoncé.

I’m a Sussex Wedding Photographer, and my job is to make sure your big day looks just as good in photos as it felt in real life. No stiff, staged nonsense—just natural, fun, and beautifully honest wedding photography that actually tells the story of your day.

Pete was very laid back and friendly with all guests making people feel comfortable. Took stunning photos that captured day wonderfully. Previews shared very fast which was great to share with friends and family. Light used in his technique captured the autumnal wedding. Highly recommended.

Recently had Pete take photos for our wedding day. Where can I start, the experience was phenomenal. He made everyone feel relaxed and was such a joy to have there on our special day. All our family and friends commented on how polite a friendly he was and included everyone to make everyone feel like part of the experience. He made me and my partner feel great, and just had such a good vibe, we laughed and smiled throughout having all of our photos taken and was never awkward , he made the whole experience 10x better and wouldn’t have wanted anyone else for our special day. A massive thank you once again. Our photos came out beautifully and were just so amazing, captured everyone, every emotion and every small unforgettable moment , leaving us with such fondness looking back at our day. Really captured every memory. 10/10 and would highly recommend to anyone wanting the most amazing photos and experience for their big day!! Xx

We really lucked out finding Pete. He was brilliant, easy to talk to from the start and made us feel at ease, no question was too much. We're really thankful that he captured our wedding, he brightened the day, helping us relax into having our photos taken (we're both a bit camera shy). He did a fantastic job and our guests commented on how friendly he was, and made an effort to talk to them. We're really happy with our photos - Pete managed to capture lots of really lovely moments between us, our guests, and the beautiful setting. We were both really glad that we chose Pete to photograph our wedding and wouldn't hesitate to reccomend him. Thank you Pete!

Wow wow wow wow wow wow. Pete is amazing. He covered our wedding on Saturday and he captured every magical moment. We’re so incredibly lucky he was part of the day. He kept us at ease, knew when and where the lightening would be best as well as ensuring we covered all the key pictures without feeling pressured. Totally wonderful. Thank you Pete!!! Xxx

The team at Sussex Media Design were absolutely lovely and made planning our wedding photography feel completely seamless from start to finish. I liased with Pete for our booking and he really took time to listen to our wants and needs to find a package that would work for us. Our photographer, Mike, was fantastic! So friendly, professional and lovely to have around on the day. I’ve heard nothing but praise for him from our guests, which says it all! The photos are absolutely stunning and everything we could have hoped for. I especially love the colour grading, and we were so impressed with the number of beautiful photos we received. Our photos were also sent to us so quickly which has been lovely to look back at so soon after our wedding. Our friends and family are absolutely chuffed with them, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We’re so grateful to the Mike for capturing our day so beautifully and would wholeheartedly recommend Sussex Media Design to anyone looking for their wedding photographer!

We honestly couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos! From start to finish, Pete was absolutely amazing and made us feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the whole day. He was incredibly accommodating and really listened to what we wanted, making sure we got all the photos and special moments that were important to us. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and he was so professional while still being friendly and easy to have around on such an important day. And the photos themselves… we absolutely LOVE every single one! They’ve captured our day so perfectly, including all the little moments and memories that we’ll be able to look back on forever. Choosing our favourites is going to be nearly impossible! We’re so grateful for everything he did for us and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Thank you so much for capturing our special day so beautifully — we couldn’t have asked for anything more!

We hired Pete for our wedding on 27.08.26 and wow, what an incredible guy he is! He was absolutely incredible and always kept us laughing with his brilliant humour. He arrived early and was incredibly welcoming. He brought a trainee videographer with him, Mike, (he emailed and asked in advance which were absolutely fine with) and the two of them were great together, they kept us laughing and smiling all day but also never missed a second of anything going on! They arrived in a moment of getting ready chaos, which I felt bad for as it took me a moment to be able to come over and greet them personally but they fit in like another member of the party and was already scouting the best places for shots! We absolutely loved that Pete was getting all the candid photos but at exactly the right moments, when socializing died down or we both needed a little break from it, he would whisk us away for some private shots. His attention to detail is amazing, getting all the best angles and backgrounds. He is super friendly, makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera (I'm not one to normally be!). He genuinely felt like part of the party. Our guests absolutely loved him and his banter and kept telling us how great he was. Before we even woke up the next morning, he had already emailed us some of his favourite raw photos from the day and I have no words to describe how beautiful they are. We are waiting for final gallery (which there is no rush for btw!) but I know I don't need to wait to be able to leave a review. I would, without a doubt, recommend Pete a billion times over, he was one of the best decisions we made. Thank you Pete, we are beyond grateful and so glad you were a part of our day ❤️

Pete was, without a doubt, the best photographer we could have ever asked for. From our very first engagement shoot, his calm, warm, and down-to-earth energy immediately put us at ease and made being in front of the camera feel so natural. By the time our wedding day arrived, it felt like having a trusted friend by our side. One of the most special parts of our day was how intuitive Pete was. Whenever the whirlwind of socializing felt a bit overwhelming, he gently whisked us away for private photo sessions. Those quiet, grounding moments allowed us to breathe, reconnect, and take everything in—and the photos captured during those breaks are truly magical. The final gallery is absolutely breathtaking, and accessing our photos was a breeze. We’ve received endless compliments from our family and friends on how beautifully captured every detail was. Pete, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for capturing our happiest moments and making our wedding day feel so calm, seamless, and joyous. We will treasure these memories forever!

We had such a great time with Pete as the photographer - he helped us feel so relaxed and like we could be ourselves and the results couldn't have turned out better. He was really easy to chat with and was super helpful in helping carousel through all the compulsory family photos. The results were stunning, he captured all the natural smiles and laughter of the day so we can always look back and remember what an incredible day we had.

We are so glad that we chose Pete to photograph our small registry office wedding ceremony. The photos are all beautiful and it felt like we had known him for ages! Such a good guy. 😀

Why Book Me? (That’s a great question…)

 

✔ Candid, natural moments – No weird posing, just you being you. (with a little guidance!) 
✔ A relaxed, stress-free vibe – I blend in like a guest (a guest with a camera, obviously).
✔ Sussex-based, but travel-friendly – Whether you’re tying the knot in Brighton, Eastbourne, London somewhere in between, I’ve got you covered.
✔ Photos you’ll actually love – Not just for the ’Gram

Sussex Wedding Photographer

The Best Wedding Photographer in Sussex?

Ok, so let’s not get ahead of ourselves here… I’m not the best wedding photographer in Sussex, (that guy is probably £5k+!) I bring all of the skills and techniques from the very best images and shape it into a more affordable package.

I’m a highly reliable, easy going photographer that takes great images but really, the main thing I bring to the wedding day is fun…..I love my job and it shows! Your guests will feel it and the smiles will be real – that’s great photography!

Scroll through my images, check out my reviews, and if you think we are a good match, let’s chat!

Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of deal—so let’s capture it properly, with all the fun, love, and magic it deserves.
