Our family-owned business has been proudly serving the local community and beyond, providing top-notch photography services to individuals, families, businesses, and organizations. Our rich history dates back to 1858, when our ancestor Edward Reeves, a pioneer of photography, set up his studio on Lewes High Street.

Our expertise and commitment to excellence have earned us a reputation as one of the world's longest-established photographic studios.
Our Heritage
Our story begins with Edward Reeves, who learned the art of photography from James Russell, son of London Court photographer John Russell. Edward built his studio in 1858 and quickly established himself as a leading photographer in the area. Over the years, our studio has been passed down through four generations, with each family member contributing their unique skills and perspectives to our work.
