# Kate Priest Photography

Kate Priest Photography is an established East Sussex-based portrait studio specialising in newborn, baby, maternity and family photography. Operating for over 15 years, the business serves families across Sussex, West Sussex, Kent and surrounding counties from a purpose-built natural light studio located near Brighton in Peacehaven.

The photographer captures intimate, naturally-styled portraits during pivotal family moments—from maternity shoots through newborn sessions to milestone celebrations like cake smash events. Services extend to location-based family photography, including seasonal shoots amongst bluebell woodlands and autumn settings.

What distinguishes Kate Priest Photography is the deliberate approach to client care. Rather than maximising session volume, the studio books a limited number of sessions monthly, prioritising a calm, personalised experience over commercial throughput. This selectivity enables the photographer to deliver consistently high-quality work whilst maintaining the warm, welcoming atmosphere families appreciate during vulnerable moments like newborn photography.

The studio's natural light setting and 15 years of accumulated expertise position it as a specialist rather than generalist operation. Client testimonials emphasise feeling at ease during sessions, suggesting the photographer has developed genuine skill in working with families and very young subjects. The business explicitly targets families seeking experienced, caring hands for precious milestone documentation—a positioning that resonates with parents prioritising safety, professionalism and emotional comfort alongside photographic quality.
