She has contributed to various magazines including <i>The Face</i>, <i>Mixmag</i>, <i>DJ</i> and <i>The Saturday Times</i>. \n\nPetrou’s photograph of UK Garage and R&B trio Mis-Teeq was taken in 2003 for <i>Popworld</i> magazine. Comprised of Alesha Dixon, Sabrina Washington and Su-Elise Nash, the group released their debut album, <i>Lickin’ on Both Sides</i>, in 2001. They won a UK Garage Award for Best Artist and a BRIT Award nomination for Best British Newcomer the following year. They are pictured for a feature for the release of their then new single ‘Scandalous’ in March 2003. Dixon, Washington and Nash are styled in vibrant clothing often associated with pop stars, providing a refreshing view of Black female performers from an ‘underground’ music scene.","physicalDescription":"A colour photograph of British girl group Mis-Teeq, shot for a feature in Popworld magazine.
