Photographer James Brown loves Sussex, he’s an avid walker with his dog Ralph and he’s enjoyed three TV appearances talking about his photography, including appearances on the One Show and BBC Southeast Today.
If you follow social media you’ll probably see his work pop up on local photography sites, Brighton Skies is an immensely popular page and James is one of their most popular contributors. Above all, he loves sharing views of the beautiful Sussex countryside, the seasons, wild weather and nature. For him, it’s a joy to bring the colours and beauty of our countryside into other people’s lives, especially those who don’t get to see nature up close.
This month, James has kindly shared some of his photographs for our BN5 front cover; deciding which to use was almost impossible! He’s taken some stunning shots of the Downs Link at Henfield and some iconic views of the glorious South Downs. In the end, we decided that the magnificent blazing sunset on this image were perfect to bring some vibrancy one of the darkest months of the year; we hope you enjoy it.
James is available for commissions, for landscapes, people and pets, he has a real affinity with animals and captures their personalities magnificently. He has been commissioned by Hawthorn Vets for various competitions, and lots of local pet owners love to see their animals captured by him. He’s also available for commercial shots and product images.
Each year, James produces a sell-out calendar of local landscapes, which supports the Rockinghorse Children’s Charity in Brighton, he also supplies canvases for their auctions. He picked up a camera for the first time 11 years ago, as a type of therapy when his mother became terminally ill. He believes it saved him during this difficult time as he cared for her, and he hasn’t looked back. A hobby and escape has turned into a profession, for which he’s very grateful.
When he’s not out and about walking with Ralph (who has become a bit of a local superstar), his latest enjoyment is photographing the seasonal starling murmurations, Brighton and the surrounding area is renowned for these stunning acrobatic performances. It’s mesmerising to watch, capturing it is a real privilege.
