Hello, I'm kate lucas

professional photographer specialising in weddings and families


Based in vibrant Brighton, I work throughout Sussex, Kent and London to capture life's most precious moments. With a natural style, I create timeless images that tell your unique story.

You day should be about you, not staged photos. With 20 years of experience in photography and working with people I know exactly how to make it happen. My background includes experience in a prominent publishing house and with a major fashion brands, enhancing my creative vision and professional expertise.


I blend creative portraiture with natural photojournalism, letting your story unfold authentically. With an eye for perfect settings and genuine emotions, I document the magic in between moments while keeping you comfortable and true to yourselves.


At the heart of my wedding photography lies a simple philosophy: to capture the genuine moments that make your special day truly unforgettable. My approach centers around authenticity and storytelling, as I believe that the most beautiful images are the ones that reflect real emotions and spontaneous interactions.

 


Welcome to My Photography Portfolio


With over 20 years of experience, I've had the joy of capturing many moments, from detailed fashion shoots to beautiful weddings, underwater scenes, and travel photography. I love celebrating the special times in life, whether it's the beauty of pregnancy, family gatherings, or kids in both the studio and outdoors.


I believe that the best photoshoot is still to come, and I'm excited about future projects. Thank you for visiting my site, and I hope you enjoy browsing through my portfolio below.
