Harvey-Rice Photography in short

Harvey-Rice Photography is a Telford studio for newborn, maternity and family sessions, run by Jess from Leegomery. The page stands out for openness: three newborn packages with hours, image counts and contents set out side by side, full insurance stated, and safeguarding, first-aid and newborn training all named. A Master's background in photography and a wheelchair-accessible studio complete a strong first impression. Direct session booking runs through the site alongside email and social routes.

Customer reviews are uniformly positive, with five stars across thirty-seven Google reviews. Our opinion: Harvey-Rice Photography suits parents who want the paperwork straight before the shoot, with clear prices and stated cover behind a purpose-built studio. The trade-off is youth, with the limited company dating from 2024 and a shorter history than its rivals.

Questions about Harvey-Rice Photography

Is Harvey-Rice Photography any good?

On the evidence, yes for studio family work: it tops our Telford photographers table, holds five stars across its Google reviews, and publishes packages, insurance and training detail few rivals match. The company is young, so read the full page and its sources. Send your due date or session idea through the booking route to check availability.

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

No membership of the Guild of Photographers, SWPP or another body is published, so membership can't be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked. What the site does state is a Master's degree in Fine Art Photography plus safeguarding, first-aid and newborn training. Ask for any membership detail with your enquiry if it matters to you.

What does Harvey-Rice Photography charge?

Newborn packages sit published on the newborn page with hours, image counts and contents listed, so you can compare without enquiring first. That clarity is rare in this round. Open the newborn page for the current figures and confirm what prints or digitals each package leaves you holding.

Where does Harvey-Rice Photography work?

From its Oak Studio at Leegomery Community Centre in Telford, serving Telford, Shropshire and the West Midlands. Sessions run in the studio rather than on location. The accessible studio with a lift suits prams as well as wheelchairs. Send your postcode with the enquiry to confirm you sit inside its patch.
