Hi! I’m Petra – a portrait photographer serving growing families and passionate business owners in and around the Essex area (and beyond, I love to travel!), creating  thoughtful photography that you would be proud to display around your home.

Everyone’s reason for hiring a photographer will be different but the most common theme will be creating a visual legacy to cherish forever. For me, it is ‘ME’ being in our family photos. I want our family story (whatever stage in our lives) to be told in a beautiful and thoughtful way and I can’t always do this by myself and frankly, even if the most adorable moment had unfolded in front of my husband’s eyes, with a camera accidentally falling into his hands, it would not even have crossed his mind to take the picture.

Sounds familiar?
