I know what it feels like to hand over your money and your trust to a photographer. then get back images you’d never post. I’ve heard that story hundreds of times from clients who found me after a bad experience. You deserve better than that.
I taught myself photography on YouTube in 8 hours, moved to Dubai with nothing, and built my way up from a bed space to shooting Steve Harvey, Chanel Ayan, and LESA Milan. From red carpets at Atlantis The Royal to intimate personal branding sessions across the city, I bring the same energy to every shoot.
500+ shoots in the UAE. Featured on Digital Journal and published in Times Square, New York. My camera has told thousands of stories here. Yours could be next.
You’ve invested in a dress, a location, a vision. The worst thing that could happen is walking away with photos that don’t match any of it. Flat lighting. Stiff poses. Generic edits. Images you’ll never post.
That’s not what happens here.

Yes, many locations in Dubai require a photography permit, especially if you are using professional lighting equipment such as softboxes, reflectors, or external flashes. Hotels like Atlantis can issue permits quickly if you are a guest. For public locations like Downtown Dubai or Burj Khalifa areas, security may stop you if you set up professional gear without prior approval. Always check with the venue or location in advance.
The best months for outdoor photography in Dubai are October through March. During winter, you get blue skies, white clouds, and comfortable temperatures. Sunset shoots are especially popular because the light cools down and you get golden hour without the harsh midday glare. Summer months (June to August) are extremely hot and humid, which can fog camera lenses and cause discomfort for clients.
Some of the best photoshoot locations in Dubai include Al Seef (old Dubai aesthetic, great for fashion), Downtown Dubai near the Wings of Mexico sculpture, the Burj Khalifa bridge area towards Burj Park, Al Jadaff, and various hotel locations like Atlantis The Royale and Hilton. Each location offers different backdrops and lighting conditions. Eric Deine can recommend the best location based on your outfit and concept.
Yes. Eric Deine shoots both photography and videography using a Sony A7R IV, a DJI Ronin RS3 Pro gimbal, and professional audio equipment including Hollyland wireless mics.
