The short answer

Your wedding photographer in Brighton, at a glance

An award winning, London based wedding photographer, Kaushik Bathia has spent more than twenty five years photographing weddings in Brighton and right across East Sussex. We move with the rhythm of the day, quick when the action is fast and patient when it slows, so nothing important slips past unrecorded. Whatever your wedding looks like in Brighton, a church service, a register office, a country house, a barn or a hotel, and whatever your traditions, we photograph the whole day as it happens. We have photographed weddings since 2001, and in that time we have learned to read a running order quickly and to keep things moving gently when the schedule slips. Engagement shoots, a second photographer for busier days and beautiful fine art albums are all part of what we offer, and we travel throughout East Sussex and the rest of the UK for your wedding.

Serving Brighton

The story of your Brighton wedding, kept for good

Brighton is a vibrant seaside city with grand venues. Whether you choose a register office, a barn, a country house or a hotel, we photograph across East Sussex and know the area around Hove, Worthing and Shoreham closely. We watch for the unguarded moments during the service, the shaking hands, the mouthed words, the parent wiping an eye, and hold them without interrupting anything.

When we do gather you for couple portraits, we keep it brief and easy, walking and talking rather than posing, so the pictures still feel like you. During the quiet stretches we keep looking for the details you arranged, the flowers, the notes, the table settings, and fit them in without slowing anything down. We move with the rhythm of the day, quick when the action is fast and patient when it slows, so nothing important slips past unrecorded.

The venues in and around Brighton are ones we know by heart. Brighton is a vibrant seaside city with grand venues, and we work throughout the local area, Bournemouth and Crawley included. We are at home at Brighton-area venues such as The Royal Pavilion, Harbour Hotel Brighton and Hotel du Vin Brighton.

Brighton is a lively East Sussex seaside city known for its Regency architecture, The Lanes and inclusive culture. Brighton railway station is on the Brighton Main Line with fast trains to London Victoria and London Bridge. For portraits away from the celebration, Preston Park, the city's largest park with lawns, a walled rock garden and mature trees works beautifully, and The Royal Pavilion, an exotic Indo Saracenic royal palace built for the Prince Regent adds a real sense of place.

What we offer

What is included in your Brighton wedding coverage

01

Every Venue Covered

From grand country houses to village halls and city hotels, we read the light and space of wherever you marry.

02

Relaxed Portraits

A few unhurried portraits away from the crowd, done quickly so you are soon back with your guests.

03

Multi-Day Coverage

For weddings that run across two or three days, we build coverage around each event so nothing is left out.

Every kind of wedding

Intimate elopements through to 300 guests

Our approach to the ceremony is simple: watch closely, stay out of the way and record the promises exactly as you make them. As you take your seats and the ceremony begins, we are already positioned, ready for the first look, the tears and the small unguarded reactions. Whether the setting is a grand nave or a simple garden marquee, we work with the available light and the sightlines to record the ceremony honestly.

We are happy to add a welcome gathering or a next-day brunch to your coverage, so the wider weekend of celebration is remembered alongside the day itself. Preparations, portraits, the meal and the party each get their share of our attention, and we pace ourselves so no part of the celebration is thinly covered. When the evening party begins and the lights come down, we adapt our approach, working in low light to keep the dancing alive and full of energy.

The whole celebration

Start to finish coverage in Brighton

We like to reach the getting ready early, so we can settle in, meet the people around you and be part of the calm before things begin in earnest. Starting with the preparations lets us gather the small details, the shoes, the rings, the handwritten notes, before the day gathers pace around you.

Rather than chasing every second, we hold the shape of the day, giving each part enough frames to stand on its own later. We cover the full arc of the day so that, looking back, you can walk through it in order rather than in scattered highlights.

Why choose us

Craft, not luck, on the biggest day

After a quarter of a century of weddings, we stay calm when timings change, which they often do, and we adjust without any fuss reaching you or your guests. We finish every wedding into hand made, fine-art albums, a craft we have refined over many years so your collection is something to pass on.

We travel widely for weddings and think nothing of a longer drive to reach venues in and around Hove, Worthing and Shoreham and the broader East Sussex. You should never have to think about how we get there; reaching venues throughout East Sussex is something we quietly take care of.

Wedding photography in Brighton, frequently asked questions

Yes. We photograph weddings right across East Sussex and the surrounding counties, and further afield throughout the UK. Wherever your ceremony and reception are, and whether they share a venue or sit miles apart, we plan the logistics with you in advance so the timeline holds and no coverage is lost travelling between them.

Price matters, of course, but the photographs will outlast the day itself, so style and trust should come first. Choose someone whose work genuinely moves you and who you feel comfortable with, then find a package that fits. Your wedding cannot be photographed again, so it is worth getting this one decision right.
