RUSTIC BARN WEDDINGS

Beams, stone walls, fairy lights and fields. I’ve photographed barn weddings all across Sussex, Kent & beyond, and each one has its own character. Here’s my guide to the best rustic barns.

Hey, I’m Dale!

Documentary Wedding Photographer based in St Leonards – East Sussex.

I’ve photographed over 400 weddings as a Documentary Wedding Photographer in Sussex, Kent, London, and beyond.

My style is raw, real and full of colour. The hugs, the chaos, the laughter, and the quiet in-between moments. No stiff poses. No awkward smiles.

Just your people, your story, your day.
Connection always matters more than cookie-cutter poses.
