"We are so lucky to have had Bea photograph our engagement. I contacted her with 24hrs notice and wasn't knowledgeable about Bath at all. She got back to me almost immediately, helped me find the perfect place, and had all the details ready. She was as excited for us as we were — it was wonderful to have someone truly be excited for us."
