About

Photography by Beth Price

At Bear Photography, I specialise in capturing your family’s unique moments with relaxed and authentic photography. Whether it’s an at-home shoot, outdoor portraits, or a pop-up studio day, each session is designed to reflect your story in a comfortable and natural way.

As a parent, I understand the value of preserving life’s special moments. From tender newborn shots to the joyful chaos of family life, I create a comfortable environment where you can be yourselves. Whether it’s a family session, playful cake smash, or capturing the bond between parents and children, my goal is to highlight the genuine connections that make your family unique.

Wedding photography is a true passion of mine. Having planned my own wedding, I understand the details that make your day memorable—from the trinkets on the bride’s bouquet to the last orders at the bar. With experience in hospitality, I know how to manage the day seamlessly. My approach blends creative and documentary-style photography to capture your love story, ensuring a perfect balance of intimate moments and candid shots.

What to Expect

Before the big day

Once we’ve discussed your wedding date and availability, I’ll send you a booking form to collect your details. A deposit is required to secure your date, and I’ll confirm everything once that’s received.

Closer to your wedding day, I’ll send a wedding questionnaire to gather important details about your big day. We’ll go through it together during a pre-wedding consultation, which I prefer to do in person. This helps ensure that everything is planned out perfectly.

I’m here to support you throughout the planning process, so feel free to reach out with any questions or for recommendations.

On the day

I arrive at the agreed time and place, ready to capture every special moment, I will work with you and your bridal party/groomsmen to ensure we get the most beautiful photos without disrupting the flow of the day.

I focus on capturing candid, authentic moments that reflect the emotions and excitement of your wedding day. While we’ll take some traditional posed portraits, I’ll also be there to capture the natural moments between you, your family, and friends. From quiet exchanges to joyful celebrations, I make sure to document the full range of emotions.

I’ll help guide you through the day, ensuring we capture all the important moments while also giving you some time to yourselves to really savour the day. Whether it's a quiet moment alone, couple portraits, or group shots, I make sure everything flows naturally, so you can relax and enjoy every part of your celebration without feeling rushed.

After your special day

Once your wedding day is over, I will begin editing your photos, carefully crafting each image to reflect the magic of your day. You can expect to receive a sneak peek of a few highlights shortly after the event, giving you a glimpse into the beautiful memories we’ve captured.

Booking & Planning

Once we’ve agreed on a date, you’ll secure your booking with a deposit. I’ll then send over a contract and booking form to gather details about what you’d like from your session. This helps me plan and ensure your shoot is tailored to you. Before the session, I’ll check in to confirm final details.

On the Day

When we meet, we’ll have a quick chat to go over the plan, so you feel relaxed and know what to expect. I’ll guide you throughout, making the experience enjoyable and natural. For home sessions, I’ll set up backdrops and lighting where needed. If you’re having a family session at home, a clear 8ft x 8ft space works best, but I can adapt—newborn sessions can even take place on your sofa!

After Your Session

I carefully edit your photos and deliver them via an online gallery, where you can select and download your images.

Whether it’s a newborn session capturing those first precious days, a cake smash celebrating a milestone, or a family shoot filled with laughter, my goal is to create beautiful, timeless images you’ll love.
