Beautiful PhotographyFor Camera-shy People
Awkward in front of the camera and disappointed with how you look in photos?
Welcome to Berties Photography.
I’m Justine Burton and I’m delighted to see you’ve found me here in my little nook of this vast internet. Come on in, kick off your shoes and let’s talk about photography that doesn’t fill you with dread.
Having had a fair few dreadful photos of myself over the years, when I become a professional photographer 10 years ago, I spent some time training, working out what made the good ones good, and the awful ones so awful.
It’s fair to say that how you feel at the time has something to do with it. Let’s face it, posing with a camera held by a complete stranger, it’s not really a surprise you’d feel anxious about the results.
TRUST ME, I’m a photographer (trained, experienced and qualified) I haven’t just picked up my camera and thought this is what I’ll do today (ok, maybe ten years ago that was true!)
Since then, I’ve learnt about the best light, backdrop and flattering angles for your body shape. I’ve trained with some of the top branding, wedding and family photographers in the country. Add to that my relaxed, enthusiastic and friendly personality. I have a knack for setting everyone at ease and getting the very best out of those in front of my camera.
Based near Guildford in Surrey; London , Hampshire and Berkshire are all within 30 minutes from me. I work across Branding Photography for small businesses, Events photography, weddings, family portraits and commercial headshots.

Amazing caring and brilliantly clever. We are so pleased we followed our first feelings to ask Justine to capture the essence of our dayThe Glovers
The day of our wedding has been portrayed perfectly by the album Justine has created for us. She was introduced to us by The Hotel, with superb samples of her work. She managed to capture all the aspects of our wedding from the quirky to the sensible to the fun and tears. We couldn't be happier with our gallery. Thank you so much JustineMr and Mrs Munsch.
We chose Justine for our wedding and could not have wished for better. She was brilliant before, during and after the event and helped us so much in having an amazing day. She made us feel so comfortable, relaxed and confident, which was a big thing for me as I don't often like having my picture taken. She is so enthusiastic, dedicated and positive. Our guests could not say enough nice things about her either! The preview photos are wonderful and we can't wait for the finished article. The Brembers
