Simon Booth Photography

I have been a keen photographer since I was 12, I decided to turn my passion into a business in 2016, and it was the best decision I ever made. I absolutely love photographing weddings, as I’ve always been a happy, positive, people person, as well as a creative person. For me, it’s a pleasure and a privilege to be part of such a special day, and creating beautiful and memorable images for a couple to treasure for the rest of their lives, is just incredibly rewarding.

It starts with you, the couple. I always like to meet couples first, to hear their plans and what they are looking for, it’s important to get to know each other a bit and gauge what’s important to them, and I put together a suggested photography schedule for them, with a flexible price, charging for up the hours they need, rather than a fixed rate for a full day. This approach to pricing makes it better value for couples who don’t need ten hours of photography. If they decide to book me, then I like to have another meeting about a month before the wedding, ideally at the venue, so we can plan together where is going to work best for Group Portraits and Bride & Groom portraits.

My style is timeless, classic and beautiful images, with a relaxed approach, and no awkward poses. Mostly lots of candid shots of the couple and their families and guests, and a few stylish images of the details, I like to capture things naturally as they unfold, in a way that tells the story of the day. I pride myself on creating stunning Bride & Groom portraits, as I specialise in portrait photography as well. After the wedding breakfast, I capture all the fun.

After the wedding, I work on each image individually, and make adjustments to make each photo look its best. I spend additional time on the Bride & Groom portraits to create images the couple will absolutely love and treasure forever. The images are delivered 2-3 weeks after the wedding, on a stylish walnut USB, engraved with ‘Our Wedding’ in a matching box.

I shoot Weddings in East Sussex and Kent, and also I do Engagement shoots, studio portraits, location portraits, and I’ve photographed a few events and parties, and family get togethers. I also shoot for businesses, corporate headshots, product shots, things like that.
