GRACE DOVE PHOTOGRAPHY
Worcestershire NEWBORN Photographer
Authentic, natural storytelling for families
Hey, I'm Grace
I'm a Worcestershire newborn and family photographer. I got into taking family photos when I had my eldest daughter. I worked with families who were looking for newborn photos that felt natural and unintrusive.
When looking back at my children's own newborn photos I loved to reminisce over their tiny hands, the way my husband and I smiled down at them, the early morning feeds. It was 5 years ago now but it's crazy how quickly you forget the little things and that's why I focus on details just as much as getting portraits of you as a family together.
Whether you're looking to update your family photos on the wall and want to head to the Malvern Hills for an explore, or whether you are expecting a new arrival and would like some photos to capture those first days - I'd love to hear from you.

Natural newborn photoshoot?
why book a
I am a newborn photographer for families who want authentic, natural photos. I like to focus on connection and relationships between people. The way your newborn's hand curls around your finger to grasp it. The tuft of hair peeping out as you hold them in the crook of your arm. Such small, little things that pass so quickly. That first year, your child will grow and develop fastest so I want to bottle up every little bit of that newborn bubble for you to keep forever.
I very much work around your family. If your baby is happiest in arms, that's where they'll stay. We take as many breaks as you wish to have and I allow for 2 hours for newborn sessions so there's never any sense of rush. I want your newborn photos to be a relaxing and enjoyable experience. Let me come to you, we'll have a cuppa and chat before we ease into some photos. No crazy props, no flashing lights - just you, me and my camera beside the window.

'Grace! Oh my goodness I think I want to have a little cry. Those pictures are utterly stunning, thank you so so much. I want to say thank you for a really lovely experience. Sometimes photoshoots like that can feel awkward and unnatural (even though it’s the most natural thing in the world!) but you made us all feel completely at ease - thank you.'
Where is your social media feed?
I've been a Worcestershire newborn and family photographer for over five years, and you may have noticed that I no longer have a dedicated social media presence for my family photography.
This change reflects the growing importance many families place on their children's privacy online. Today, around 85% of my family clients choose not to share their images publicly, and I completely support that decision. To ensure every family feels comfortable and never under any pressure to have their photographs shared online, I made the decision to step away from family-focused social media.
Any family images you see on my website have been shared with full permission from the families involved. By removing social media from this part of my business, I can focus on creating beautiful photographs for my clients without the expectation of regularly sharing children's images online. It allows families to make the right choice for them, knowing their privacy will always be respected.
You may have noticed I don't have a social media presence for my family work. This is why.
