About Me - ESB
Hello !
My name is Ella — I am a London-based photographer originally from South Africa.
My work is rooted in observation, but I shoot everything from portraits and headshots to gigs and street scenes.
Photography, for me, is about connection — with the person, the place, or the moment. It’s not about staging or perfection, but finding something real and letting it breathe. I care about making people feel seen and giving them space to show up as themselves.
I'm especially drawn to the in-between moments, the quiet, the chaos, the soft shift that happens when someone forgets the camera’s there.
So, whether it’s a quiet flat or a buzzing venue, my aim is the same — to make you feel at ease, seen, and genuinely excited about what we create together!
