Testimonials

There's a reason that I didn't have a host of photos of me, teaching, coaching, and just being. I don't like the camera's attention, and I don't like the output. With all that in mind, I knew I wanted to work with Petra: I had seen the work that she has done for other people and how she brings out the personality in front of the lens, with a warmth and kindness. I loved the shoot itself: Petra put me at ease and has a great energy that takes the focus off the process. She also doesn't 'fuss' - she trusts her eye, her equipment, and that the magic happens. And the result? She has found me, behind my embarrassment and shyness, managing to express what I wanted to say in a silent moment.

Petra is your gal for a super chilled, fun shoot. Petra puts in so much effort to ensure that the right conditions are there for your time together. She knows exactly how to get the best of you and puts you totally at ease on the day. Her enthusiasm and passion shines through from the moment you start chatting to her.

The photos are nothing short of phenomenal - thank you so much. I think everyone should have all life milestones captured by you, always. Thank you for being a complete ray of sunshine. I could never thank you enough.

Happy tears. I look so at peace. It feels like seeing my child-self and my present-self all at once. It takes a lot for someone as self-conscious as me to relax... but Petra's warmth, excitement and enthusiasm made it easy.

I was recommended Petra and I'm very glad I was! I needed photos for the website and marketing collateral of my new business, and Petra was really diligent in asking and understanding what my business was about and how my imagery needed to portray my messaging. She spent time researching beforehand, and super helpfully showed my photos during the shoot to see if they felt right. That helped refine things even more and the result is an awesome gallery of images I can use in multiple marketing assets. Highly highly recommend!!!

I'm so astonished - it's me. I just didn't expect to see myself like that. You were so far away with your big lens, I didn't feel under scrutiny at all. I wanted to record this time in my life to appreciate it and celebrate it - and you've helped me do that.

Thank you for your time, patience and diligence in creating a really great set of images. I hope your business continues to grow and will certainly recommend you and may well come back for some more images in the future.

Your passion and kindness are outstanding.

Your photos remind me how much I love what I do - which I sometimes forget.
