Engagement photography at Stanmer Park, Brighton

Stanmer Park, Brighton - Peter & Elizabeth

It was a beautiful day at Stanmer Park when I shot Peter & Elizabeth’s engagement shoot. The Stanmer woods are such a tranquil, idyllic setting for an event like this.

Engagement photography at Littlehampton East Beach

Littlehampton East Beach - Simon & Terrie

Simon & Terrie share such a deep connection and this was so apparent during their engagement shoot. At each point of the shoot, they both fitted together so naturally.

Testimonials from recent clients

“As a couple who cringe at over-the-top romance and the idea of being photographed, we couldn’t believe how relaxed Darren managed to make us feel and how natural the photos looked. He made us forget he was there and therefore the photos capture how we actually are together without looking cheesy or forced.”

– Elizabeth & Peter

“Darren was so cool and nice! He was flexible and went above and beyond to accommodate our requests! My fiancé doesn’t like getting photos taken but he said he had a great time and it wasn’t uncomfortable at all! I love Darren’s natural view and making the photos look better than real life but not overly filtered. I highly recommend him for all your photography needs!”

– Simon & Terrie
