How the Surprise Proposal Photography Works

1. Planning Consultation
We discuss your vision, ideal location, and timing via call, email or WhatsApp. I’ll guide you through everything step by step.

2. The Setup
I arrive early and blend naturally into the surroundings. We can agree on a special signal from you so I’m ready the exact moment you kneel down.

3. The Proposal Moment
I capture the second they say “Yes” — the emotion, the surprise, the happiness.

4. Celebration Session
After the proposal, we enjoy a relaxed engagement session around Bath to celebrate your newly engaged chapter.

Optional Extras
I can arrange romantic candlelight with flower petals and a bottle of champagne for an additional investment (details confirmed in advance).

You focus on asking the most important question of your life — I’ll focus on capturing every emotion.

"We are so lucky to have had Bea photograph our engagement. Not only did I contact her with 24hrs notice, I was also not exactly knowledgeable of Bath(were American). She got back to me almost immediately and helped me find the perfect place to propose and had all the details ready to go. She was ready at the spot when we arrived and got great photos of the engagement. We had the next hour to take photos and she made sure we had a wide range of poses and spots around the park.

She was as excited for us as we were and it was wonderful to have someone to not just take photos for us, but to truly be excited for us. She then gave us great recommendations for some restaurants to celebrate our engagement. She delivered on all her stated services(time for photos, delivery of some photos same day, the time frame for the rest, etc).

We are very pleased with the edited photos we received and could not have asked for a better photographer or person to have been there for such a special moment in our lives!"
