She had been encouraged to take up photography by her brother, John Cimon Warburg (1867–1931), who also worked with colour.[2]
Warburg exhibited at the Linked Ring and at the Royal Photographic Society, where she was a founder-member of the Pictorial and Colour Groups.[3] As a result of her Pictorialist approach, she used photography as an art form rather than for commercial gain. Her results using the Autochrome process were of a remarkably high quality.[4]
Warburg died on 4 January 1953 at her home in Bramley, Surrey, where she had lived for the final seven years of her life.[5] In her will, she gave 70 acres (28 ha) of land on Box Hill to the National Trust.[6]
