Petra Photography is a Burton upon Trent wedding specialist. Petra creates natural, emotive wedding and engagement photography with a calm, unobtrusive approach that captures real moments.
I’m Petra — an award-winning wedding photographer based in Burton upon Trent, UK, and I specialise in wedding and engagement photography that feels honest, gentle and timeless. Weddings are one of my core passions: I love the energy of a day spent with couples and their families, and I return to wedding work again and again because I care deeply about preserving the real moments that matter. My approach is simple: less is more. I work with a clean, soft aesthetic that keeps the focus on emotion and connection rather than busy styling or stiff posing. On the day I aim to blend in with your guests — unobtrusive, attentive and ready for the decisive moment — so the photos feel natural and true to your celebrations. Whether it’s quiet, intimate exchanges, the laughter between friends, or the tearful vows, my goal is to document your story with warmth and sensitivity. Choosing me means you’ll work with someone who values calm professionalism and personal care. I take time to get to know couples before the wedding — we’ll discuss your plans, the parts of the day you most want to remember, and any special moments you want prioritised. I’ll guide family portraits and group shots in a relaxed, efficient way so you get beautiful results without losing time with your guests. Throughout the day I focus on light, composition and authentic expression to create images that will age gracefully. I bring several years of wedding experience and have been recognised in photographic competitions for my work. I continue to learn and refine my craft so I can offer couples thoughtful, modern imagery rooted in feeling rather than fashion. Based in Burton upon Trent, I’m happy to travel across the UK for weddings and engagement sessions, bringing the same calm energy and attention to detail to every event. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who will listen, blend in, and create natural, emotive photographs you’ll treasure, I’d love to hear about your day. Let’s talk about how to capture the moments that will become your family’s heirloom images.
