Hello, my name is Claire Hill LMPA DipPP ASWPP; I am an accredited Master Photographer living and working in East Grinstead, West Sussex. I specialise in Wedding, Portrait and Event Photography in and around East Grinstead, West Sussex, East Sussex, Surrey and Kent. I grew up in Tunbridge Wells, Kent and I am familiar with many of the beautiful venues we have in the area.

I love my job and I love people. I get so much pleasure from photographing those special moments; and capturing a moment in time that lasts forever. Everyone is beautiful and I just love to see that beauty unfold behind the lens; beauty is more than skin deep and to see real beauty is just magical.

I am a qualified member of the Master Photographers Association and I am extremely proud to be able to use my letters and call myself an Accredited Master Photographer. I also have my Associateship with the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers and this required me not only to have an all round competence but I also had to demonstrate a far greater creative interpretation, creative use of location and a faultless technique. Currently there are only six photographers who have achieved their Associateship in the West Sussex area with the SWPP. It does not stop there as I will always continue to develop and hone my craft in order to bring you consistent, quality images; and for me being a photographer is to always strive to do new and different things to keep my photography fresh and vibrant. Every wedding, portrait or event I photograph is approached with the same care and passion using high quality equipment and expertise to bring you only the best images that you deserve.

I was also chuffed to bits to have received two merits in the International Master Photography Awards in 2011 and two Silver Awards in the International Loupe Awards 2011 and I have been ranked 26 for my entry in the Abstract/Illustrative category.

I love a good chat, so if you would like to talk further, give me a call! Be rest assured I do not advocate the hard sell; it is not something I like myself, so if you call you will not feel pressurised at all, just a lovely chat about you and my photography. I hope you enjoy browsing the website and be sure to pop into the moving albums page to see some slideshows and catch up with my latest ramblings on the blog! I very much look forward to hearing from you.

Claire
