A little about me

Primarily serving Sussex in the region of Hastings, Bexhill and Eastbourne I am a Photographer, Artist, Husband to an amazing wife and father to two wonderful children who are growing up way too fast!

I specialise in portraiture in all it's forms:- actors' headshots; fine art portraits; dancers and cars. I also take on a lot of commercial work where my skills in Photoshop walk hand-in-hand with the photography allowing me to create whole scenes to suit a product should an environment not exist or be unavailable. 2023 will see my last wedding. I loved to create drama with flash light to bring out depth in the skies and make the most beautiful, painterly images, but a variety of personal changes have led to the need to keeping weekends as free as possible.

I've always had a love of documenting things, from writing diaries; the time I built the extension on our house to my children growing up. Having a record of my life and loved ones is a constant source of delight to look back upon and hopefully I can help you out with some treasured memories too. I pride myself on my friendly and professional service.

Proud member of the Guild Of Photographers and awarded Image of the Year (Creative and Digital Art Category) and Overall Image Of The Year two years running by the Guild Of Photographers, winner of 2022's Photographer Of The Year in the Open Category as well as coming fourth in the all-inclusive Overall photographer Of The Year. Along with that I have as well as being placed sixth, fifth and fourth in the Guild's 'Overall WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR' in 2017, 2019 and 2022 respectively.

Simon is, quite simply, an outstanding photographer. Not only that, but he's a very genuine, kind guy who will always go the extra mile. Take a look at some of the extraordinary photographs he has taken in his portfolio and marvel at his creative genius.Alastair Hazell
