A Photographer Who Sees the Real You

Model portfolio photography isn’t just about posing, it’s about expressing who you are. I’m drawn to those subtle, genuine moments: the way someone moves, laughs, pauses, or reacts. These are often the frames that stand out most in a portfolio because they show a true sense of character.

"Absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. Working with her for our engagement photos in Bath was truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the very beginning she was kind, organized, punctual, and incredibly responsive, which immediately put us at ease. She has such a warm and calming presence and made both my fiancé and me feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Her attention to detail is unmatched and it shows in every single photo. We were blown away by how quickly she delivered our images, almost immediately after the session, and the quality exceeded all expectations.

Beyond the photos themselves, she went above and beyond by sharing thoughtful recommendations for wedding venues, engagement party locations, and beautiful spots around Bath, which made the experience feel so personal and supportive. It genuinely felt like she cared about us and our story, not just the photos. I cannot recommend her highly enough and would trust her again without hesitation for any future milestones".

This happened recently… and it’s one of those moments that has stayed with me ever since. As a photographer, I’m usually observing quietly from the outside — anticipating emotion, waiting for the split second where everything changes. But this time, I was right there as it unfolded.  We were standing in front of The Holburne Museum in Bath — a setting that already feels cinematic on its own, with that unmistakable Bridgerton-era elegance in the air.

And then it happened.  He turned to her, took her hands, and got down on one knee 💍  There was a pause — that quiet, suspended moment where everything feels still — and then it all came out at once.

The surprise, the emotion, the disbelief. And then, the yes. Completely real, completely overwhelming, and absolutely perfect in its honesty.

On the day, she blended in perfectly, which was so important for keeping the surprise intact. The photos she captured are genuinely stunning — she managed to preserve every moment beautifully and naturally.

We couldn’t be happier with the results and would highly recommend Bea to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and thoughtful photographer".

Engagement and wedding photography at Bailbrook House Hotel, Bath

May 22, 2026

When this couple asked me to photograph their wedding at Bailbrook House Hotel in Batheaston (just outside Bath), I leapt at the opportunity. Before the big day, we met at the venue in order to plan which locations would work well for group photos on the wedding day. It also gave them a picture to use for their invitations.

No excuse now for guests to turn up at the wrong hotel!

The hotel's rolling grounds and gracefully landscaped gardens provide several ideal places to take some engagement shots. One of my ideas was for them both to each produce a drawing showing how they see the other, which caused a great deal of laughter!
