How to Plan the Most Fun Brighton wedding and Have Epic Photos

Jan 30, 2025 | Weddings

Let’s talk about your wedding day. You’ve spent months (maybe years?) planning this shindig. You’ve agonised over the perfect dress, debated whether to have a cheese tower instead of a cake (solid choice, by the way), and practiced your first dance in the living room when no one was watching. But here’s the thing: when the champagne’s been popped, the dance floor’s been destroyed, and your aunt Linda has finally stopped crying, all you’ll have left are the photos. And trust me, you don’t want those photos to look like they were taken by your cousin Dave with his shaky hands and questionable Instagram filters.

Enter: me. Your Brighton wedding photographer, your hype person, and your unofficial third wheel on the most important day of your life.

Why Brighton? Because Basic is Boring

Let’s be real, Brighton is the Beyoncé of wedding locations. It’s got drama (hello, stormy seas), it’s got glamour (looking at you, Royal Pavilion), and it’s got a little bit of quirky charm (shoutout to the seagulls who photobomb like they’re getting paid for it). Whether you’re saying “I do” on the beach, in a cozy pub, or in a secret garden, Brighton serves up the perfect backdrop for your love story. And no, I won’t make you pose awkwardly in front of the pier like a tourist—unless you want to, in which case, let’s go full Love Actually.

My Style: Less Cheese, More Please

I’m not here to make you do 47 variations of the “dip kiss” or force you into a field of flowers like a rom-com extra. My style is all about capturing the real, raw, and ridiculously fun moments of your day. The way you laugh when your partner tries to bust out their dad moves on the dance floor. The tears in your grandma’s eyes when she sees you in your dress. The look on your face when you realise the cake is actually gluten-free (and still delicious).

I’m like a ninja with a camera—I’ll blend into the background, but I’ll be there for every hug, every toast, and every time someone inevitably spills red wine on the tablecloth.

Tips for Couples Who Want to Look Like Rockstars

  1. Chill the Heck Out: Your wedding day is not the time to stress about whether the napkins are the right shade of blush. Relax, have fun, and let me handle the awkward family photo lineup.
  2. Trust Me, I’ve Got This: I’ve seen it all—rain, wind, seagulls stealing canapés. Whatever happens, we’ll make it work. And if it rains? Congrats, you now have moody, dramatic photos that belong in a magazine.
  3. Be Yourself: If you’re not the “stare deeply into each other’s eyes for 10 minutes” type, don’t do it. Want to rock out to your favorite song during portraits? Let’s do it. Your photos should feel like you, not like a Pinterest board come to life.
  4. Bribe Your Bridal Party: The best photos happen when everyone’s having fun. A few glasses of prosecco never hurt anyone (except maybe your uncle Steve, but that’s a story for another time).

Why Pick Me? Because I’m Basically a Wedding Whisperer

I’m not just here to take pretty pictures (although, let’s be honest, I’m really good at that). I’m here to make your day easier, more fun, and totally stress-free. I’ll help you wrangle your guests, fix your hair when the wind ruins it, and remind you to eat the damn cake.

Plus, I’ve got a killer playlist for car rides, and I’m not afraid to use it.

Let’s Do This

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who’s equal parts professional and hilarious, who will capture your day with all the love, laughter, and chaos it deserves, then let’s chat. I’m based in Brighton, but I’ll travel anywhere for a good love story (and maybe a slice of cake).

Your wedding day is going to be epic. Let’s make sure your photos are too.

P.S. If you’re still on the fence, just imagine your grandkids scrolling through your wedding album in 50 years. Do you want them to say, “Wow, Nana, you looked stunning,” or “Why does Grandpa look like he’s being held hostage?” Let’s go for stunning.
