Weddings Engagements Events Venues Portraits Travels
Wedding Photography Blog
I hope you will enjoy reading Ebourne Images' wedding photography blog pages. They are predominantly about weddings, engagements, portraits, events and with some about my passion for travel photography.
I am based in Eastbourne, East Sussex. So you will be able to browse through shoots in my resident county, Sussex. Some in the surrounding area on the South Coast and London. I also love to travel and I feel lucky that I have been able to use my skills to photograph weddings all over England and Europe.
Background
Five years ago I started Ebourne Images and threw myself full-time into wedding photography. I wished to be creative and I wanted the couples, who entrust me to take their pictures, to receive artistic images and memories that will live with them forever. I remember how great I felt when I received my wedding pictures and I want to recreate that feeling for others.
My wedding photography approach
The Big Day: It can vary so much. I try to use my judgement on the day and be prepared to adapt. I have found myself up in a two-seater plane, looking for the perfect sunset angle at Stonehenge and rushing around the inner crypt at St Paul's Cathedral desperately trying to locate the bride and her father. Anything can happen. Sometimes it's nerve-wracking, and often it's exciting but to put it simply, I love it.
I get myself into weird and wonderful positions to capture the moments. Years of yoga come in handy. However, my aim is always a simple one. I want to tell the story of the day through my camera and capture emotions that only a wedding can bring.
Weddings are a special part of humanity, the most important day of many peoples' lives and I feel privileged to be in a position to capture that. It's why I worked so hard to get my business going and will continue to do so. I can't think of any other job I would rather be doing.
