Past & Present Fotografie

Past & Present Photography brings the warm, personal approach you know from Petra’s newborn and portrait work to corporate portraits. From her natural-light studio in Vreeswijk (Nieuwegein), Petra creates business images that are not over-polished but instead timeless, authentic and professional — ideal for LinkedIn, company profiles and press materials. Why choose Petra? Her strength is creating a relaxed atmosphere. After years working in childcare and long experience as a portrait photographer, she knows how to put people at ease quickly. That calm and patience shows in the results: natural expressions, a clear presence and a professional look without stiff posing. What makes her approach special? Petra shoots with natural light in a quiet studio environment so skin tones and eyes are rendered beautifully. She uses her portrait expertise — including 2-in-1 and generational portraits — to subtly tailor composition, lighting and retouching to your business goals. The result: distinct, recognisable portraits that convey trust and work well on websites, LinkedIn and in company publications. How does a corporate session work? After you get in touch, you’ll receive an information email with practical tips to help you prepare (clothing advice, how to feel most comfortable in front of the camera). During the shoot, Petra guides you step by step: simple directions, brief conversation and gentle poses encourage natural expressions. After the session she selects the best images, edits them carefully and delivers them via a personal online gallery — convenient to download or forward to your communications team. Local accessibility and personal contact Past & Present operates from Nieuwegein and is easy to reach from Utrecht and the surrounding area. Petra values personal contact: would you like to discuss style or the intended use of your portrait first? She’s happy to advise and help choose what best suits your professional image. In short: if you’re looking for a corporate portrait photographer with a soft, professional approach and an eye for detail, Past & Present Photography in Nieuwegein offers timeless, reliable images that strengthen your business story.
