David Ash Peake Photography

General information

About David Ash Peake.

I am a Mid Sussex based photographer offering a range of prints of my favourite subjects and projects. In addition I provide a variety of affordable photographic services.

I have been taking photographs since an early age, and slowly and surely photography has taken over my life to the extent that it's now my full-time profession. Over a decades long journey I have discovered so much about the taking and making of images, and about myself and the world around me.

For me photography is about the emotional connection with the subject, whether that be the dawn sun rising over a Scottish firth or a laughing bride on her wedding day. I feel that I'm not just stuck behind the camera. I'm looking down through the lens and into the scene beyond, feeling every moment. If I'm not in touch with what's happening around me then how could I make that evocative image.

I travel about and make images of the big scene in front of me, but I also believe that we ignore much of the detail beneath our feet. That's why I've been working on the Beachcomber series of prints and my wedding coverage features the reportage style. It's the little things that make up the bigger picture.
