Claire Wilders is a Horsham wedding photographer specialising in relaxed, natural and documentary-led wedding photography. She creates candid, timeless images and offers a complimentary engagement session.
If you’re planning a wedding in Horsham or anywhere across West Sussex, Claire Wilders Photography offers a friendly, specialist approach to wedding photography that puts you at ease. Claire’s style is relaxed, fun and natural — she focuses on documenting real moments and emotions so your album tells the story of the day, not a list of poses. Why choose Claire? As a Horsham-based photographer she knows local venues and light, and she brings a calm, considerate manner to every wedding. Claire stays unobtrusive throughout the day so couples and guests can enjoy the celebration; she looks for the small, unscripted moments—quiet glances, joyful laughter, the unexpected—that turn into the images you’ll treasure. Claire’s approach is both personal and professional. Before your wedding you’ll have a pre-wedding conversation and a complimentary engagement session so we get to know each other and you feel relaxed in front of the camera. On the day she balances documentary coverage with a few guided portraits when you want them, ensuring you have the important family and couple shots without interrupting the flow of your day. Working part-time in a Special Needs school has taught Claire patience and how to build rapport quickly with children and nervous family members—skills that translate beautifully to wedding days with little ones, large family groups or guests who prefer a gentler pace. Her aim is always to create professional wedding photos that feel honest and timeless, suitable for albums, wall art or digital keepsakes. After the wedding you’ll receive your edited images in a private online gallery, making it easy to view, share and decide on any prints or albums you’d like. If you care about printed memories, Claire can help you choose wall collections and bespoke albums to showcase your favourite moments. For couples seeking an experienced wedding day photographer in Horsham and West Sussex, Claire Wilders Photography offers thoughtful, storytelling-led coverage and a calming presence on your big day. Get in touch to talk about your plans and to arrange your engagement session — Claire loves meeting couples and helping their wedding memories last a lifetime.
