Scott Mathieson
Photography

Born to a Glaswegian father and a Canadian mother, I spent my childhood between Sussex and Edinburgh and I have now settled in Sussex to raise my family. I have been behind a camera now for close to 16 years and I love the people and places it has led me to discover.

When it comes to photoshoots, I believe in keeping things relaxed. I have complete confidence in my ability to capture great moments, planned or unplanned and my natural patience ensures that every session is stress-free and enjoyable.

If you are nervous in front of a camera, or just hate having your photos taken, your in good hands. 

Client Testimonials

“I got photos taken by Scott for my website, the results were amazing! I love how easy it was working with him and how comfortable I feel with him behind the camera.

I told him the idea of what I was looking for and he produced something 100 times better. And most important of all, I got the pictures super quick after the session.”

“Scott is a very professional photographer. He scouted locations and knew the right environments and lighting in which to shoot our family photos. He made friends with both my kids, and they felt very comfortable around him. We love the results, and family/friends have said he captured us really well.”

Sarah

“Scott did a family photo shoot with us and our daughter. It was last minute and we had no preset ideas or destination in mind. We went for a walk in the countryside and Scott had the perfect eye for a good photograph. He caught the magical moment in every photo and he was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish.”
