Wedding, anniversary and engagement shoots in Bath with a local photographer

August 13, 2025


A wedding is one of life’s most meaningful milestones — a celebration of love, commitment, and the beginning of a shared journey. As a photographer, it's an incredible honor to capture these once-in-a-lifetime moments and tell each couple’s unique story. I had the joy of photographing a beautiful wedding set in two of Bath’s most stunning locations: the Botanical Gardens and the iconic Temple of Minerva and Parade Gardens.

A Personal and Relaxed Approach

When working with couples, my goal is to create a relaxed atmosphere where they feel completely comfortable being themselves. Whether it’s a wedding anniversary, engagement session, or surprise proposal, my approach remains the same: capturing natural moments that reflect each couple’s love and personality.

Bath’s timeless beauty — from the lush gardens to the grand Temple of Minerva — provides the perfect setting for these precious memories. During their anniversary shoot, the couple enjoyed a stroll through the gardens, sharing laughs and intimate moments, while I captured their connection in the stunning natural surroundings. The Temple of Minerva then offered a majestic backdrop to celebrate their love and the journey they’ve shared.

A Day Full of Love and Memories

What makes these shoots so special is not just the photos, but the experience itself. Whether you're celebrating an anniversary, marking an engagement, or planning a surprise proposal, the goal is to create an unforgettable experience that feels as beautiful as the memories you’re making.

I believe that when couples feel at ease, their love shines through in every shot — and it’s an honour to be part of that. Bath offers a perfect blend of nature and history, and each couple’s story becomes a beautiful part of this city’s legacy.

As a Bath-based photographer who’s been capturing weddings and other events since 2014, I feel incredibly lucky to live just ten minutes from one of the most iconic and atmospheric venues in the UK, The Roman Baths.

 

This is what the couple said about their experience with Beata Cosgrove Photography, capturing their sunset wedding at this beautiful venue in Bath:

"Beata did an amazing job with our wedding photos — we particularly wanted someone who was familiar with the Roman Baths.

When this wonderful couple asked me to photograph their sunset wedding, I was absolutely delighted. It’s always a joy to work at such a breathtaking location right in the heart of the city I call home.

The Roman Baths are truly magical in the evening. As the sun begins to set, the ancient stones take on a warm glow, and the reflections in the water create a peaceful, timeless atmosphere. It’s a stunning backdrop for any celebration.

On this particular evening, the setting was serene, pigeons played around the courtyard as the final touches were put in place. Everything was ready. The bride made a beautiful, thoughtful entrance, taking a long walk around the Baths before the ceremony. It gave everyone a moment to pause and take in the setting, and it was a lovely way to begin the evening.

The ceremony itself was filled with happy moments, laughter, and heartfelt connection. Surrounded by family and friends, the couple exchanged vows under the golden light of the evening. After the ceremony, we made full use of the surroundings, capturing portraits among the historic pillars and flickering torchlight.

One of my favourite personal touches from the day was when the couple brought along a rugby ball—a nod to their love for the game and their shared passion for Bath Rugby. It was a playful and unique detail that added a fun twist to their photos and reflected something truly meaningful to them.

The whole evening had a wonderfully relaxed feel. I focused on documentary-style photography, capturing real, unscripted moments of joy, emotion, and connection between the couple and their guests.

Whether you're planning a wedding or another special event, The Roman Baths is a truly magical venue. Capturing this sunset wedding wasn’t just an honour — it was a heartfelt reminder of why I’m so passionate about what I do.

If you’re planning your wedding day or a secret engagement at this beautiful venue (or elsewhere!), feel free to contact me to discuss your day in more detail at [email protected]. I’d love to help capture your own unique story.

✨ Why capture the proposal?


Many people book a photographer for their wedding day in Bath, but the moment it all begins — the secret proposal or engagement — often goes unseen on camera.

I’m here to help you plan and capture those precious seconds that start your new chapter.

 

Here are a few reviews from surprise proposals and engagements captured by Beata in Bath

 

"We had such a wonderful experience working with Beata! She captured our surprise engagement perfectly and made us feel completely at ease throughout the whole shoot.

"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!"
