Deborah Brown is an International Award winning food photographer who is the face behind the boutique studio Epicurean Images, based in the beautiful green rolling hills of West Gippsland.

​

Deborah’s lifelong love of photography was formalised by returning to study at Melbourne Polytechnic (formally NMIT) where she discovered her love for the genre of food photography.

 

During this time Deborah’s style developed into a clean, refined & somewhat moody aesthetic, using simple lines & textures, bringing a sense of order, balance and harmony that exudes confidence, professionalism and sophistication.

​

Deborah is driven to create images that are characterised by minimalism, simplicity and elegance, with an artists attention to detail, producing a lasting impression of understated elegance.
