"We had a family event and Be Lens were booked for this. It wasnt myself that booked them but I spoke to them a lot at the event and have even secured a date with them for my 30th. They were ever so friendly, bubbley and professional! I would highly recommend. They sent the photos over to the family via a link within less than a week. They got some lovely photos of people posing but some amazing natural shots too! Honestly dont think twice, go ahead and book them you will not be disappointed!'

"My wife and I chose to have a photoshoot to commemorate our 30th wedding anniversary and the experience exceeded our expectations. The setup was quick and efficient, allowing us to feel completely at ease in the comfort of our own home. The session was conducted in a relaxed yet highly professional manner, which was especially helpful for me as I am not the most natural subject in front of the camera. A large selection of photos was taken, giving us the flexibility to choose our favourites. One particular image stood out to us, requiring only minor edits, all of which were expertly handled by Be Lens Creative. Thank you for capturing such a special milestone with professionalism and care."

- Dave A

"I’ve had the absolute joy of working with Be Lens Creative on three different occasions now, and every single time they’ve gone above and beyond. Each shoot was for a completely different moment in life, yet they somehow managed to capture the heart and soul of it perfectly. From the very beginning, they made me feel comfortable in front of the camera — which is no small task! Their professionalism shines through in everything they do, but it’s paired with a genuine warmth that makes the entire experience feel natural and fun. They know how to bring out the best angles, the real smiles, and the little in-between moments that truly tell a story. The creativity they bring to each shoot is incredible. Every photo feels unique, yet their style is so consistent and beautiful. They don’t just take pictures; they capture feelings, memories, and milestones in a way that I’ll treasure forever. The turnaround time has always been quick, and the editing is flawless without ever feeling overdone — everything looks polished yet still real. After three different shoots, I can say with complete confidence that their work is not only consistent but extraordinary. I feel so lucky to have had them document these important moments, and I would 100% use them again to capture even more in the future. I can’t recommend them highly enough — if you’re looking for photographers who will make you feel at ease, capture your vision, and deliver photos you’ll love for a lifetime, look no further. Thank you Be Lens Creative for giving me memories I’ll cherish forever. πŸ’›"

She’s such a lovely, kind and patient person, and you can tell how much she genuinely loves what she does and cares about the dogs she works with. The photos are absolutely stunning. She managed to capture Ronnie’s personality perfectly, along with some beautiful moments between us that I’ll treasure forever. Looking through the gallery genuinely made me emotional because they’re such precious memories to have with my boy. If you’re thinking about booking a photoshoot with your dog, do it – you won’t regret it. Thank you so much, Ellie, for giving me memories I’ll cherish for a lifetime. ❀️🐾

"Me and my partner had some different photoshoots with BE Lens Creative. We had so much fun with them taking different photos. We did a location shoot and the photographer was so committed to finding the perfect place to capture the photos. Me and my partner sometimes find it awkward being infront of a camera but they made it feel so natural and comfortable. We had so much fun doing our photoshoots. Would 100% recommend them."

"Ellie was absolutely brilliant! She arrived early, was so lovely and easygoing, and instantly made us all feel comfortable. My pets can usually be quite difficult when it comes to trusting someone new, but with Ellie it was instant. They felt completely at ease with her, which made the whole experience so relaxed and enjoyable. The photos she took of my two pets are amazing. She captured so many different sides of them. Some silly and funny moments, and some really beautiful ones too. You can really tell how much care and sensitivity Ellie has as a photographer, and she managed to capture their personalities perfectly. I’m extremely pleased with the whole experience and with how professional, kind and patient Ellie was. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, and I’ll absolutely be coming back for more photos in the future!"
