I'm a lucky resident of the seaside , and my love for the sea runs deep. I live by the sea with my amazing partner and our beloved cat and I'm constantly inspired by the the beauty of the Sussex's shores. When I'm not capturing special moments for my couples, you'll often find me walking up the hills, photographing or indulging in a sauna on the beach before taking a dip in the sea - it's one of my favorite ways to unwind and appreciate nature's wonders. The ever-changing landscape of the coast never ceases to amaze me, providing endless opportunities for exploration and discovery. This led an ongoing personal photography project where I capture the unique shapes of trees that form in the sand at low tide. It's amazing how nature can create such intricate patterns - each one is like a work of art waiting to be discovered. Whether I'm watching winter storms batter against the cliffs, a serene sunset or soaking up the sun on a hot summer day, I feel incredibly grateful to be surrounded by such natural splendor. Living life by the sea truly brings me immense joy and inspiration that fuels my creativity every day.
