About

Relaxed, creative, and fun wedding photography for easygoing couples

If you want your wedding to be more about celebrating your love for your awesome partner with your nearest and dearest, and less like a series of photoshoots, you've come to the right place.

I offer natural, documentary wedding photography which doesn't look stiff or feel awkward - and is even enjoyable! I take a relaxed approach to give you photos full of real emotions rather than frozen smiles, and try to keep things unposed and authentic. I won’t be pulling you out of the moment and asking you to ‘SMILE!’, but instead spend your wedding creeping about like a ninja, capturing delirious laughter, happy tears, wide grins, and all the real moments in between; the true story of your wedding day in pictures, and all the little bits you might miss in the blur of it all. I'm friendly but unobtrusive so you and your guests are put at ease, and can just be yourselves and have an amazing time without feeling self-conscious about being photographed.

I give every wedding equal care and attention, whether you have booked me for two hours or twelve. I carefully edit all my photos in my signature light and airy, film-like style with smooth, creamy colours and a timeless feel. I don’t go in for orangey tones but do love to bring out all the gorgeous colours of your wedding in a natural way. So if you like that fine art look but prefer fun candids to lots of flatlays of invitations, then I’m your girl!

I have a range of packages to suit all weddings - from two hours for intimate London dos and elopements, to ten hours with an engagement shoot, album, and two photographers!

Brilliant!

Genevieve was wonderful to work with. My wife is anxious in front of the camera but was immediately put at ease in our initial communication, and this continued throughout the day itself. Genevieve captured the wedding through more candid photography as we'd requested but also took some gorgeous formal ones too. Really lovely woman, so happy we chose her!

Just amazing!

I am SO pleased we asked Genevieve to shoot our wedding photography, she was so kind, personable and flexible. I was really indecisive about what I wanted and she was somehow able to figure out for me what photos I'd like and how to get them, she was so perfectly sneaky and got some fabulous candid shots when we hadn't even realised she was there! Perfect if you are not very confident in front of the camera as she makes you feel at ease and still somehow gets great photos of everyone. Genevieve stayed with us for ages to make sure she got photos of our whole day, provided hundreds of amazing photos well beyond our expectations and sent us our finished edits on a USB stick in the most stunning personalised box, all for a very reasonable price. We are so pleased with our photos and would recommend Queen Bea Photography in a heartbeat!

Incredible photos with lots of thought and truly a delight to work with

Genevieve was simply brilliant to work with. She completely understood the vision we had for our wedding photos and based on her responses 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 of photos (always a good sign!!).

The previews sent through to us were incredible but we simply weren't prepared for the final delivery. Over 600 photos and all absolutely flawless. You can tell the photos were taken with a true appreciation for the craft and, crucially, the importance of the day for her clients.

Photos were delivered via a web link with full size versions and the most adorable USB drive we've ever seen, complete with a custom wooden box. Pricing was incredibly reasonable, especially considering the number of photos we got, and Genevieve's flexibility on the day was excellent. Highly recommended.

Lovely photographer

Genevieve was so lovely and easy going! My husband and I both felt awkward having our photos taken but Genevieve really put us at ease and made the experience enjoyable. We have some amazing shots! Thank you so much! She even captured the little things such as table decorations & guest book table - the day is a whirlwind so you can miss those sorts of things. Thank you so much xxx

My name is Genevieve; I'm happily married and live in West Brompton, London, with my wife and our cat.

Having recently been through the process of getting married myself, I understand the stress and difficult decisions that come along with it. I aim to make my clients' lives easier; with transparent pricing and packages, a friendly and personal service, and some beautiful wedding mementos at the end. I work in a soft, vintage style and do a mixture of reportage and formal photos, tailored to what each individual client wants.
