Sarah Wenban Photography

Sarah Wenban is a Crowborough-based wedding specialist whose work is rooted in a natural, documentary approach. She focuses on capturing the real moments — the laughter, quiet exchanges and unexpected details — that make each wedding unique. With a calm, friendly presence on the day, Sarah blends into the flow of your celebration so couples and guests can be themselves while she records honest, emotive images. Why choose Sarah? Her photography balances an eye for composed, beautiful images with a commitment to storytelling. Whether you’re planning an intimate village chapel service, a barn celebration or a seaside ceremony in Sussex, she prioritises atmosphere and feeling over contrived poses. Many couples value her ability to make camera-shy guests relax and to find the fleeting gestures that matter most, producing a cohesive gallery that reflects the genuine spirit of the day. How she works: Sarah believes great wedding photography begins with a conversation. She listens to your priorities, gets to know the parts of the day that matter most and offers thoughtful pre-shoots (engagement or preshoot sessions) to help you feel comfortable in front of the lens. On the wedding day she takes a considered, unobtrusive role — documenting key moments, guiding gentle portraits when needed, and letting candid scenes unfold naturally. After the wedding she carefully edits and sequences the images to create a narrative gallery you’ll want to revisit. Her approach is warm, professional and relaxed. Sarah brings a practiced eye to light, composition and timing, while keeping the experience personal and low-pressure. She knows Sussex venues well and enjoys photographing outdoor ceremonies, country houses and coastal celebrations, tailoring her style to suit the mood of each couple. While wedding photography is her primary focus, Sarah also has experience with family and pet sessions and can incorporate those connections into engagement shoots where appropriate. Above all, she is driven by a love of honest storytelling through images — creating wedding photographs that feel true, timeless and entirely your own.
