Petter Hegre (born 1969 in Stavanger, Norway) is a Norwegian photographer, most famous for his nude photography of women.
Hegre studied at the Brooks Institute of Photography in California and worked in New York with Richard Avedon before returning to his native Norway. He received the "Photographer of the Year 2001" award at the 8th annual 'Erotic prizes' in London. He went on to publish six books and have his work exhibited internationally.
Hegre-Art, his official website, was launched in 2002 as Hegre-Archives. It underwent a dramatic redesign in December 2005, coinciding with the name change. Hegre is married to model Luba Shumeyko and they divide their time between a villa set in orange groves in the Algarve, Portugal and an atelier in the heart of Paris.
