Hi! I am

Natalie Dove

I’ve always been surrounded by creativity. Growing up in Cleveland, Ohio with parents who worked in the art industry, I was immersed in talent and inspiration from day one. When my family moved to Virginia, I picked up a camera in high school and never put it down. From there, I attended Columbus College of Art & Design, where I got my BFA in Graphic Design and Photography!

Along the way, I’ve received an Award of Merit from CSCA for product photography, I have been honored with a Rising Star Award nomination from AFF, and had my work displayed in the Crane Center, Kinney Hall, Canzani Center, a small gallery in downtown Columbus. I’ve designed menus, shot product photography, created promotional posters, ran social media marketing, and had an internship with Huntington National Bank, all while gaining hands-on experience collaborating with clients and companies, from small design firms to events all over Columbus.

My goal is to keep working hard, learn as much as I can and continue to create clean, new ideas and fun work that connects with people, whether that’s through studio photography, a very cleanly designed ad, or a brand identity that identity for a client. I just want to keep creating!
