My style is chilled out and unobtrusive, allowing you and your guests to have an amazing wedding day without feeling self-conscious about being on camera - while I document all of it!

Queen Bea Photography Full Description
Chilled and natural wedding photography with a splash of creativity and (hopefully) lots of fun. You'll find no cringe here, so get those frozen-smiled, over-posed traditional wedding photos out of your mind! My style is documentary, so I'll be creeping about in the background trying to be as unobtrusive as possible (think black-clad ninja with two cameras instead of swords), telling the story of your day as it unfolds rather than posing things that didn't really happen. I'll never pull anyone out of the moment and obnoxiously ask them to 'SMILE!', so you and your guests can forget I'm there, have an amazing time without feeling self-conscious that you're on camera - and be yourselves! I edit my photos in a light and bright style with a touch of film photography. But while I work in a similar pallette to fine art wedding photography, I veer away from the flatlays of invitations, rings, and perfume, and lots of posing. So if you like that timeless, romantic look but want a documentary style with more punch and emotion - hello! May I introduce you to 'fun art' photography instead! Because I truly believe that some of the best wedding photos pose themselves - so there's no need to fake it. Whether it's someone welling up when they see their partner walking down the aisle towards them, children running amok with leftover confetti, or champagne-fuelled dance moves, weddings are chock-full of brilliant real moments to capture. And that is why I love my job so much, as I get the privilege of freezing those amazing moments of love, happiness, or laughter, so someone can come across a picture decades later and still feel those emotions. Sound up your street? Send me a message!

You made us feel so comfortable
We just wanted to email to say a massive thank you for everything you did on our special day. You made us feel so comfortable and relaxed and in the nicest way possible, we didn’t know you were there! We can't wait to see the photos whenever they’re ready and again, thank you.

We felt so comfortable - thank you!
Neither myself or my other half are great in front of the camera so we were pretty nervous about wedding photos. We picked Genevieve as she's got a relaxed style and she really made us feel at ease on the day. We had a lot of laughs and it didn't feel awkward at all! We really like how the pictures have come out and can't wait to see the rest. Thanks!!

Our wedding day
Had our wedding photographed by Genevieve but the service on the day didn't quite meet expectations. We met previously for engagement photos where we were directed and seemed to have a good rapport, everything was very friendly and we were very excited for our wedding. However on our wedding day it didn't seem like we got the same service, she didn't spend the time to say hello or check in at any point. We didn't receive any direction for photos and although we did want lots of natural laid-back shots it wasn't quite what we expected. The photos we received are lovely and a good number but it did take till the final day of the three months promised to receive them (understandable with business over summer but an update would have been nice).

Surprisingly enjoyable (in a good way) !
Wedding photos were really important to my other half and me, but we were so nervous about it (I'm quite self-conscious about how my chin always looks especially). We met Genevieve at a wedding fair and really got on and liked her laidback approach which we thought would suit us. After being so nervous and worried we'd just be awkward we actually enjoyed ourselves - even the couple shot section ! We had such a laugh and we almost forgot Genevieve was actually taking pictures of us. It honestly felt like just going on a walk with a friend and it was a nice breather from the busyness of the wedding day. She did give us directions but it wasn't too posed or stiff which is something we really didn't want. We're so happy with our photos !! They really represent us as a couple, and theres so many nice candid ones of everyone throughout the day, and some really funny ones too. We'd recommend Genevieve to anyone xx

She fitted in with our guests and wasn't intrusive
Genevieve is a fantastic modern photographer with timeless photos. She was a professional & friendly from the start. She fitted in with our guests and wasn't intrusive throughout the day. She managed to capture everything we asked for and made use of the amazing setting. The final photos are beautiful and we love the ones where people are relaxed enjoying themselves. I would recommend Queen Bea to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. 😁

Genevieve was brilliant to work with
Genevieve was brilliant to work with. She completely understood the vision we had for our wedding photos and we knew we'd found our photographer. She stayed in touch up until the wedding day and kept us informed as she worked through her huge backlog. The previews were incredible but we simply weren't prepared for the final delivery - they were all absolutely flawless. You can tell the photos were taken with a true appreciation for the craft and the importance of the day for her clients.

Your Surrey Wedding
Frequently Asked Questions
(10)

What is your most memorable wedding?

My friend had a festival themed wedding which was so cleverly done and such fun.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Relaxed, natural, creative, fun, quirky

What about your business are you most proud of?

I started my business shortly before the pandemic started, which was a strange time - to say the least! I'm proud that I persevered despite it being difficult and have built it up into a success!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Enjoy your day to the full, because believe me, it goes by in an absolute blur! Savour every minute.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Homemade soaps as wedding favours. I thought that was really cute, and they smelt amazing!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I really want to know what makes you guys tick as a couple, and what you are looking for in your wedding photos as one size definitely does not fit all. During our consultation I'd like to find out a bit about you, what styles you like, if there are any key shots or key people you want in the shots... I aim to personalise my service to every couple.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

Something that is uniquely 'them', whatever that may be.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

I loved taking photos at a wedding venue with farm animals! Such fun!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Brollies, wellies, and a good sense of humour!

Describe how you got into photography.

Photography has always been a passion of mine, but it wasn't until after my own wedding (and a really bad experience with my photographer) that it clicked I could actually do it as a career. I got going when we came back from our honeymoon and things grew from there!
