“Real Moments. Real emotion. Your love story beautifully captured.”

Welcome to Burst Photos, where your special day is my passion.

Hi, I’m Matthew, the photographer behind Burst Photos — Capturing real moments, joyful energy, and weddings that are filled with personality and heart.

 

I’m based in Bexhill and proudly serve couples across East Sussex and beyond, capturing wedding days in a relaxed, fun, and unobtrusive way. With more than 20 years of experience, I’ve learned that the best photographs come from genuine connection. I want you to feel comfortable, confident, and completely yourselves in front of the camera — that’s when the real magic happens.

 

My style is a blend of natural documentary moments and a few beautifully guided portraits to give you those frame-worthy hero shots. I’m there for the big moments, of course — but also the quiet glances, the belly laughs, the happy tears, and the little in-between details that tell the full story of your day.

 

When you choose Burst Photos, you’re choosing a photographer who brings passion, professionalism, and 100% commitment from the first message to the final image. 

 

If you’re planning a wedding in East Sussex (or even further afield), I’d love to hear your story. Let’s chat!

“You will always get just beautiful natural wedding photos.”

I capture weddings how my couple's imagine them to be – bright, beautiful and filled with all the happiness of the day.
My wedding photography style has been described as unobtrusive, candid, creative and authentic. My approach is all about capturing real moments and emotions, in a calm and relaxed manor.
