"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, organised, 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". K&M

"I hired Beata to capture my surprise proposal in Bath, England. She was so accommodating and helpful in every way! I hired a private charter boat for the special moment and Beata contacted the skipper to coordinate a plan. She arrived early, wore a crew shirt, and pretended to be a member of the team so my new fiancée had no idea she was a photographer. Beata went above and beyond in capturing our photos, even taking risks by hanging outside the boat! She was truly a pleasure to work with and shared our photos with us promptly. I highly recommend Beata’s photography services!"
