Photographer Overview
Soulla Petrou is a London based photographer specializing in Beauty, Fashion and Portraiture. Her evocative and unique style helps to boost her clients profiles and brands, helping them to stand out from the crowd. She does this by understanding and translating her clients concepts and needs into beautiful, contempory and exquisitely executed imagery. Soulla's longevity in this business (over 20 years) is a testament to her enthusiasm and ability to make her shoots exciting, stress free and productive, a view expressed by her clients. Soulla has spent just as much time retouching her own images and those of others over the years and set up her own retouching business due to demand. Soulla's other expansion into video production and editing allows her to now offer her clients a 'one stop shop' for photography, retouching and video, ideal for the growing demands of social media and more.
