Hi, I’m Gráinne
I'm a mum of two and the Photographer behind Baby Bear Portraits.
The name Baby Bear Portraits was inspired by my own little ones. My daughter Edie has always been nicknamed "Edie Bear," and when Teddy arrived, the bear theme became even more special.
I started this little business after having my second baby, wanting to create a calm and relaxed space where families could capture real memories together.
As Baby Bear Portraits has grown, so have my dreams. Alongside family photography, I've now launched "Bearly There", my wedding and event content creation service, capturing all the genuine, behind-the-scenes moments you'll treasure forever.
Whether I'm photographing your growing family or quietly documenting one of the biggest days of your life, my approach stays the same. You'll bearly know I'm there. My style is all about natural connection, genuine emotion and timeless memories. I believe the best moments are the ones that happen naturally, which is why I focus on documenting your story exactly as it unfolds.

BEARLY THERE Wedding Content
Think of me as your extra bestie for the day, just with a camera in my hand.
I’ll be there for the excitement, the nerves, the happy tears, the belly laughs and the dance floor chaos, capturing all the little moments you might not even realise are happening.
So you can put your phone away, be completely present and soak up every second, knowing I’m there capturing it all for you.
My goal is for you to completely enjoy your day while I capture it exactly as it felt. Natural, emotional, fun and completely you.
You live it. I’ll capture it, you'll Bearly know I'm there.
Kind Words
Such a fantastic experience! Grainne had my toddlers out of the shells in no time getting beautiful photos. She captured the chaos of our family as it was happening without missing a beat. Cannot recommend Grainne enough for your family photos - especially if you have twins or triplets like we do!

Testimonials
We had such an amazing experience with Grainne! From the moment we arrived she made all of us feel really comfortable and relaxed. Grainne was so kind, patient and just amazing with our little ones. It certainly wouldn’t have been easy trying to photograph all 7 of our children together but Grainne made it look easy. She was honestly brilliant!! I can’t recommend her enough!! Looking forward to seeing all the beautiful photos of our family.
Emma & Mark
I cannot recommend Grainne enough. My partner and I are the most awkward people when it comes to having our picture taken but knew we had to bite the bullet when our little boy came along! well Grainne made us feel so relaxed from start to finish and got some amazing photos of us as a family and of our little boy! As someone who is very self critical when it comes to photos of themselves, i especially loved the ones she got of me and Jake! I might go back for every occasion. Between fitting us in and getting the photos back to us, Grainne was so accommodating and quick!
MEgan & Jonny
