His first monograph, “Arcadia Britannica, a Modern British Folklore Portrait”, was published worldwide by Thames & Hudson in 2015.

In 2024, “Turn of the Century, Portraits of Creative Interiors”, Bourne’s first retrospective book, was published by Rizzoli New York. “With the publication of Turn of the Century, we get to see some of Bourne’s most memorable interiors and portraits all in one place. From a group of artists’ squat to the residences of some of the most important figures in fashion, art and design. To say that Turn of the Century is a who’s who of design and architecture would be an understatement. Some of the brightest stars of the last 30 years opened their doors to the photographer.” — The World of Interiors

Bourne won the St Petersburg Contemporary Photographic Festival prize and an SPD Gold Award for photography (USA), and is a recipient of an American Photography 26 award.
