Last update: May 2026

WWith years of photography experience, I’ve learned that the most beautiful memories aren’t posed—they’re felt. I specialise in capturing the soul of your wedding through natural light and a documentary approach. While I pride myself on meticulously following your briefing to ensure every detail is covered, my true passion lies in delivering those 'hidden', spontaneous shots that truly tell your story.

As a professional photographer based in Brighton, my passion has always been capturing the authentic joy of life's most important moments. I believe that every photo tells a story, and it deserves to be printed beautifully.

That's why I've expanded my services to offer a truly premium Magic Mirror experience across East and West Sussex. Unlike standard photo booths, my interactive mirror is designed to complement your event's elegance. Combining my professional eye for lighting with studio-grade Fujifilm technology, I ensure that every guest walks away with a high-quality keepsake that lasts a lifetime.

Candotti is based in West Sussex and offers wedding photography services.

Made us feel so comfortable and delivered perfection!

If you are looking for a photographer who takes away all the wedding day stress, Vin is the one. Neither of us feels comfortable in front of the camera, but his friendly and calm approach made everything feel completely natural. He was punctual, highly reliable, and delivered our gorgeous gallery much sooner than we expected. Every detail of our day was perfectly preserved.

Professional, discreet, and absolutely brilliant!

We couldn't be happier with our choice! From the very first contact, Vin was incredibly professional, punctual, and organised. On the wedding day, he blended into the crowd so beautifully that we barely noticed he was there, which allowed him to capture the most genuine, unposed moments. He made us and our guests feel completely at ease. The final images are stunning, and the service was flawless from start to finish.

He captured every single important moment without us even realising it.

The photos completely exceeded our expectations; they are stunning and show a level of sensitivity we never imagined. Every key moment and emotion was beautifully preserved in the album. He managed to capture everything, even the moments we didn't notice him filming.

The Magic Mirror was a total hit!

We hired the Magic Mirror from Vin Candotti after finding out his photography was fully booked, and it was top-notch. The setup looked very professional and the guest tributes written on the back of the prints were such a pleasant surprise. It was the perfect addition to our wedding space. Thank you for everything! — Lara

Absolutely Over the Moon with Our Photos!

Absolutely fantastic service. Vin was so attentive to our needs and delivered exactly what we asked for, plus some amazing extra suggestions. Our engagement photos are gorgeous, and we’re certain the wedding shots will be just as incredible. We’ll definitely be recommending him to everyone we know!

Professional, Creative, and So Much Fun!

Pauline here! We recently had our pre-wedding shoot with Vin Candotti, and it was an absolutely brilliant experience. Right from the start, they made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which was no small feat! Every detail from our briefing was met perfectly, but what really impressed us were the stunning candid shots captured throughout the day. We had a lovely time and couldn't be happier with the results.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

Vin Candotti
Lead Photographer

With 30 years of experience behind the lens, I’ve had the pleasure of working across three different countries, absorbing the unique visual languages of Brazil, Italy, and England. This international journey has shaped me into a specialist in candid photography, dedicated to capturing those genuine, unscripted moments that happen when you think no one is watching.

My process starts with a thorough briefing—I take the time to truly understand your vision and expectations, ensuring that on your big day, you can simply relax while I handle every detail. It’s about being prepared, so you can be spontaneous.
