Professional Photographer Based in West Sussex
I’m a professional photographer based in the South East – my studio is in East Grinstead in West Sussex (near to Gatwick). You’re very welcome here, kick off your shoes and make yourself at home. The links at the top of the page should take you pretty much anywhere that you’d like to go but if you have questions, or can’t find what you are looking for, just click here to contact me.
I’ve been working as a professional photographer for more than 20 years now and although the industry has changed over the years, I’ve never lost the enthusiasm for my profession. Wedding photography was my first love and I’ve stayed with that throughout my career but I’ve also enjoyed moving into new areas as they made their way to the UK to become firm favourites – such as newborn photo shoots and cake smash first birthday sessions.
My studio is my second home and its truly a warm and welcoming space designed to provide the maximum possible variety in terms of backdrop, prop and lighting options. From light and airy, white and bright images through to dramatic blacks with plenty of colour and shade in between, I can meet almost any photographic style requirement.

Cake Smash Photography
Cake smash and tub splash photo shoots are a fun way to celebrate and commemorate reaching that important milestone of a baby’s first birthday. Start out with a clean shoot, get messy with the cake and then get clean again with a tub. Lots of fun and wonderful images to treasure. Find out more about my first birthday photo shoots.

Family photography has come a long way since the stiff and stilted days of old and now it’s all about capturing who you are as a unit.

Based in Crawley Down, near to East Grinstead, my studio is easily accessible by road with private parking on the driveway.

Both spaces offer a wide range of backdrop and lighting options which allows me the maximum flexibility in term of creating images in many styles.
