Chichester & West Sussex Wedding Photographer

Natural, honest, documentary wedding photography that tells the real story of your day.

I’m Matt — a Chichester wedding photographer specialising in relaxed, storytelling wedding photography across West Sussex and the South East. For over 15 years, I’ve been capturing weddings in a way that feels real, emotional and completely true to the people in front of my camera.

No awkward posing. No staged moments. Just your story — told beautifully, naturally, and with heart.

Our philosophy is simple: Not planned. Not posed. Just real, beautiful memories.

Meet Your Photographer

I’m Matt — a documentary West Sussex wedding photographer who believes the best images come from real moments, not forced ones. For me, photography is all about connection, emotion and storytelling. Your wedding day isn’t a photoshoot; it’s a once‑in‑a‑lifetime gathering of the people you love most.

I run this as a family‑owned business, and that personal touch shapes everything I do — from how I communicate before the big day to how I blend in seamlessly during the celebration.

Sometimes my partner Bella joins as an optional second shooter, depending on the coverage you choose. She’s amazing at capturing extra angles and smaller moments happening elsewhere — but this is always optional. Whether I’m documenting your day alone or with Bella alongside me, you will always receive a full, beautifully told story of your wedding.

Meaningful details that tell your story
Calm, natural portraits that feel like you
Zero awkward posing

Zero pressure

You get to enjoy your day — I take care of the storytelling.
