Hey,
The Pi camera and the GrovePi should work independentaly.
Once you are able to use python to take a picture (there should be some examples available oin the internet) and also get a python code to use the PIR sensor https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/blob/master/Software/Python/grove_pir_motion_sensor.py you can just combine then together so that the camera is triggered by the PIR sensor.

There is some great information from the Pi Foundation on using the Pi Camera with Python here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/camera/python/README.md

A great place to start with the Pi Camera. As Karan notes, you can then integrate it with some of the Grove sensors.
