Eastbourne portrait studio specialising in natural, relaxed professional portraits and headshots. Sarah helps camera‑shy clients feel at ease to capture authentic, confident images.
I’m Sarah Carmody and my Eastbourne portrait studio is all about making you feel comfortable, confident and completely yourself in front of the camera. With a passion for portrait photography and years of experience working across Sussex, I specialise in professional headshots, LinkedIn portraits and personal studio sessions that reflect who you really are. Why choose my studio? I believe the best portraits come from a relaxed atmosphere and a friendly rapport. Whether you need a polished business headshot or a creative personal portrait, my approach is informal and reassuring — no stiff poses, no unrealistic expectations. I spend time understanding how you want to be seen and guide you gently through each pose, using conversation and simple direction to capture natural expressions and subtle moments of personality. The studio is homely and based in my garden in Eastbourne, so we can combine controlled studio lighting with beautiful natural light outdoors when it suits your session. That flexibility means we can create clean, professional headshots for business use as well as more creative portraits for social media, personal branding or editorial needs. Images are delivered as high‑resolution digital files ready to use across your platforms. My process is straightforward and client‑focused. Before your session we’ll chat about your objectives — the tone you want, where the images will be used, and any wardrobe or styling ideas. On the day I aim to keep things relaxed and fun, helping even the most camera‑shy clients feel at ease. I pride myself on capturing honest, flattering portraits that stand out for their warmth and clarity. Based in Eastbourne and covering Sussex, Surrey and the South East, I work with individuals, small businesses and professionals who want portraits that feel real and work hard for their brand. If you’re looking for a portrait studio that combines skill, a relaxed atmosphere and a genuine love of creating images you’ll treasure, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s plan a session that shows the best version of you.
