Petra Photography is a specialist in family photography based in Burton upon Trent. Petra’s work is built around one simple belief: less is more. She creates clean, soft, emotionally honest family portraits that stand the test of time — images you’ll be proud to hang on your wall and return to again and again. Why choose Petra? As a proud mum and an award-winning photographer, Petra understands family dynamics and how fleeting childhood is. Her sessions focus on the connection between people rather than stiff poses. Whether you prefer a relaxed outdoor sunset shoot or the gentle BOHO-style room in her studio, Petra’s photographic eye finds the quiet, tender moments that reveal true personality and relationship. What makes her approach special is the combination of warmth, patience and attention to detail. Petra builds a relaxed atmosphere where children can be themselves and parents can forget the camera. She provides wardrobe options, gentle direction for anyone nervous in front of the lens, and simple, timeless backdrops so the focus remains on the bond between family members. Her signature style is natural, soft and understated — aimed at capturing laughter, small gestures and the honest energy of childhood. How Petra works: every family photoshoot begins with a friendly chat about your ideas and what matters most to you. On the day, she blends calm professionalism with a playful approach to keep children engaged and comfortable. Sessions can be tailored for families with newborns, babies and children — Petra’s experience with families and little ones means she knows how to create a safe, soothing environment in studio or adapt to the best light outdoors. Petra Photography also celebrates life’s moments connected to family — from newborn portraiture and baby milestones to children’s sessions and birthday portraits — always with the same focus on emotion and authenticity. Based in Curzon House, Burton upon Trent, Petra brings local knowledge and a warm, personal touch to every shoot.
