ABOUT US
A Legacy of Vision & Conservation
Petrova Faith Jones, Lead Photography and Tour Expedition leader, is an internationally award winning, distinguished conservation and wildlife photographer, dedicated to illuminating the world’s most critical climate stories. She owns and operates both Bucket List Photo Tours, and her main photography business, Photography By Petrova, recognized as one of the best photography education businesses in the state of Florida.
In addition to photography, she is an accomplished filmmaker and certified drone pilot, her work having spanned five continents and over thirty countries. From leading the Great Barrier Reef Survey to photo surveying the 'Ring of Fire,' or, most recently collaborating with National Geographic in Antarctica, her career is defined by purpose-driven storytelling. Her purpose being the lens is to always try to shoot images with impact, and captures for a cause.
Born in London and now residing in Florida, Petrova founded Bucket List Photo Tours to bridge the gap between viewers and Earth’s most awe-inspiring locations. Following recovery of a life-threatening illness nearly a decade ago, she committed to intentional living, transitioning from capturing beauty to creating images with visceral impact. Today, she stands as a primary voice for nature, advocating for preservation and championing the voiceless through her flagship mission, 'Shuttershock.'
Petrova Jones is proud to be recognized by Business Rate Awards as BEST PHOTOGRAPHER and BEST PHOTOGRAPHY EDUCATOR for the second consecutive year (2025, 2026) in Florida.
When she is not behind the lens, you may find her behind her piano. As a professional degreed musician, and former concert pianist, she also runs and owns a large music school, Petrova Jones Music, teaching children and adults how to play musical instruments, and performance strategies.
