Harvey-Rice Photography in short

Harvey-Rice Photography is a Telford studio for newborn, maternity and family sessions run by Jess, who states a Master's degree in Fine Art Photography alongside newborn training. Packages are published on the page from £229 with hours, image counts and contents listed, insurance through PolicyBee is stated, and the studio is described as fully wheelchair accessible with a lift. Booking runs through the contact page, email or socials.

The record shows newborn, maternity and family sessions from a Telford studio described as fully wheelchair accessible with a lift, plus outdoor sessions across Telford, Shropshire and the West Midlands. Booking runs through the contact page, email or socials, with package contents and turnaround set out on the site. The newborn page lists three fixed packages with hours and image counts.

Customer reviews stand at five stars across 37 Google ratings, the only public review source on the record. The run is shorter than the leaders' but unblemished, and it sits beside the round's tidiest paperwork: fixed prices and stated cover. No other platform ratings are held for this firm.

Our opinion: Harvey-Rice Photography suits Telford families who want a well-documented studio with clear prices and stated cover. Against a business brief it counts against it that no commercial photography is evidenced, and the limited company dates only from late in 2024.

Questions about Harvey-Rice Photography

Is Harvey-Rice Photography any good?

On the evidence, yes for family studio work: newborn packages with fixed prices, insurance stated through PolicyBee and five stars across 37 Google ratings. The short company history is the main caveat on an otherwise tidy record. Read the full review, then book through the site. The Master's background and accessible studio stand out on the page.

Is Harvey-Rice Photography a member of a photography association?

A Master's degree in Fine Art Photography is stated on the business's own information page, alongside newborn training and mentoring with Kinghouse Photography. No membership of the Guild of Photographers, the SWPP or BIPP is published, so membership can't be sourced from the registers or the website. The training record carries the competence case instead.

What does Harvey-Rice Photography charge?

Newborn packages are priced at £229, £279 and £329, with hours, image counts and contents listed and no hidden fees claimed. Other session types are quoted on enquiry, so confirm your total in the first message. Check the newborn page, then confirm the full cost for your due date in your enquiry.

Where does Harvey-Rice Photography work?

From a wheelchair-accessible studio in Telford with a lift, covering Telford, Shropshire and the West Midlands with studio and outdoor sessions. Booking runs through the contact page, email or socials. Get in touch after your twenty-week scan to reserve a provisional date. Outdoor sessions join the studio offer across the same patch.

How is Harvey-Rice Photography ranked?

It sits in our September commercial photographers round, scored against the same published criteria as every other firm in the table. Clear prices and stated cover put it second in a table where both are rare. Read the full review, then compare it with one commercial outfit. Family studios and commercial agencies all face the same checks.

How do I get a quote from Harvey-Rice Photography?

Through the contact page, email or socials: send your due date or session type, the package that caught your eye and your location. Newborn prices are fixed on the page; other sessions are quoted on enquiry. Ask for the total, the balance terms and the gallery date in the reply before you pay anything.

How does Harvey-Rice Photography compare with the others in this round?

It sits second in our September round, a whisker behind Natalie Jayne Photography: tidier paperwork against a longer company record. Families who want an established studio with a decade behind it should weigh the leader; families who want stated cover and fixed newborn prices should start here. The company dates from late 2024, so history is the one thin file.
