My favourite location for ‘Engagement Session Photography’

My favourite wedding location changes more frequently than the weather changes during the English summer , certain venues such as Stanmer house are very grand and have fabulous rooms and is located very close to Brighton and a venue like the terraces, Hotel du Vin or Drakes have immediate access to the sea and the stunning views of the ocean .

There are so many great venues to choose from in Brighton and then there are venues in East and West Sussex , in East Sussex The George in Rye is a hidden gem as it’s set in the lovely Coastal town of Rye or West Sussex Bartfolmew Barn is very intermet and secluded but alo has acres of land should you be planning a firework display or bouncey Castles for your guest and yourselfs to enjoy.

I frequently photograph venues in London and further going as far as Norway, Ireland and Italy  and each venue,town and country has its great photographic qualitys and charms.

I think my favourite place for the ever popular ‘Engagement photography Sessions’ is Brighton this wofuld be my favourite location for this type of photography closely followed by Central London . Brighton offers the sea and London some great landmarks and architecture .When it comes to a Wedding and Wedding photography I’m happy to photograph anywhere as I really love photography it’s possible the best job you could wish for.

was in the parish of Kirdford with Plaistow which is in West Sussex the ceremony was conducted at St John The Baptist Church and the reception was a short drive away at Bartholomew Barn which is located in Kirdford West Sussex, RH14 OLN.

The vicar was Rev Dr Paul Redparth and was very happy to have photography during the ceremony which was very kind and thoughtful, its always good as it captures the emotion of the couple during the vows .Certain parishes don’t allow  photography during a wedding ceremony which is always a shame as we attempt to document the day and this is an important part of the day and can be enjoyed and looked back on for years and future generations can view the wedding.

Think of the Royal Weddings all of these are filmed and photographed during the ceremony and have been since Queen Elizabeth 2 got married in 1947 .when photographing a wedding ceremony I dont use flash and don’t move , after the wedding ceremony Rev Paul Redparth remarked “I was the quietest photographer he had encountered” and “didn’t even realise I was there”. What a compliment proving less is more, you don’t have to dance around to get great photographs.

After the ceremony it was off to Bartholomew Barn just outside of Petworth which is a lovely little venue there are some great secluded areas to photograph and it has a feel of an enchanted garden . The grounds are not massive near the barn but this gives the venue a more intimate feel and is a exclusive venue so there is only one wedding per day which is not the case at some of the more larger hotel complexes in Brighton.Plus there are two very large fields adjacent should fireworks or other entertainment be planned.

The wedding of Fran & Martin which was held at the English wine centre in East Sussex which

is located just outside of Brighton and is a fabulous venue it's very close to Brighton and

has some lovely landscape gardens a great little cottage and a new guest room facility

providing rooms which are an ideal location to stay the day before or the evening of the wedding.

The English wine centre has a restrauant and as it's name suggests some great wine to try

and buy and they also hold wine tasting events.
