Photography by Petra

General information

Hi! I am Petra, I am a photographer, mama of 3 little ones, have a dog and a husband. Life is busy but not sure I would have it any other way.
I am lucky enough to work from home (in Leigh on Sea) but I do location and shoots in client’s homes too. I have been in the photography industry since 2006 and found a love for newborns in 2011 when my first was born. Portraiture is what I do best however I get excited just about any project, big or small.

I dipped my toe into birth photography 2 years ago and was lucky enough to capture some amazing moments for parents meeting their babies for the first time. I am hoping to continue this journey once my littlest is a bit bigger.

I offer maternity, newborn, family and anything in between in portraiture, and also commercial work. I use natural light in my work (99% of the time). I listen what my clients want to achieve and adjust accordingly. I have my style and it will always shine through whatever but will always incorporate my client’s ideas. They are their images, right?

I always hope that my work will evoke emotions in my clients and the moments we capture together will have lasting effect and put smile on their faces every time they get a glance of their images.

Photos give me the feeling that I could hold an instant of time, emotion and memory right there. I appreciate them. Less is definitely more for me and keeps the collection of images interesting and more captivating.

To me photographs are a beautiful reminder of what life once was. I have so many I look back on with such gratitude! It’s so easy to forget those times, whatever, whoever and whenever you were, so let me capture those precious moments for you. To check availability please contact me here.
