The Face
Behind the lens
This is me, Hayley and funnily enough I hate having my photo taken and am way more comfortable on the other side of the lens :)
I live in Sussex with the hubby, 2 kids and 2 fur babies. I am super laid back and love to travel and see the world as much as possible. With South East Asia being my absolute fave!

The photos are utterly exquisite - thank you so much for capturing our day so beautifully. The package was a lovely surprise. You were so fab to work with and if I meet anyone else getting married around Sussex, I’ll be telling them who to call!
My Approach to wedding photography
After 17 years capturing beautiful weddings, I take the approach that your wedding day should be all about you. It's a day to relax and enjoy, spending quality time with your loved ones, without being distracted or feeling like you're constantly posing for the camera.
As a wedding photographer, my goal is to blend into the background and document those real, candid moments as they unfold naturally. For about 90% of the day, I'll be like a 'fly on the wall,' capturing the laughter, and spontaneous interactions between you and your guests. My aim is for you to forget I'm even there—at least as much as possible!
The only time I'll lightly guide you is during your couple portraits and family group shots, which take up less than 10% of the day.
I'll also capture all the little details that make your wedding unique—everything from the venue setup to the wedding breakfast, and all the meaningful moments in between. As I move through the day, I'll seamlessly capture smiles, laughter, toddler tantrums and tears of joy, creating a collection of images that will reflect and tell the real honest story of your day.
