Maternity photoshoot
Round-bump photo sessions
Welcome to my maternity photography page!
Pregnancy is a special time in a woman’s, couple’s, or family’s life. Watching new life grow is one of the most beautiful experiences and deserves to be captured. In a studio for artistic photos, at home to stay in your cozy space or the baby’s future nursery, or outdoors for natural shots by the sea, I’m here to help you immortalize these fleeting moments before your child’s arrival, in the setting that suits you best. Maternity sessions can be scheduled whenever you like up to one month before the expected due date (around 7–8 months pregnant). Some expectant mothers prefer to wait until their bump is fully rounded, while others choose to have the session a bit earlier — in any case, it’s important to book as far in advance as possible.
I have the honor of having won international awards for my work, including a recent award for artistic maternity photography.
Find session rates at the bottom of the page.
Maternity photoshoot process
On the day of the shoot, you can bring one or several outfits that suit you and that you like. Some expectant parents choose white t-shirt/jeans, others a jacket for the future dad and an evening dress: there are no rules — the most important thing is that it reflects you, flatters you, and makes you feel comfortable :)
During the session we usually take photos in the outfit(s) you chose, shots of your belly, silhouette photos, black-and-white images, and optionally photos using the tops, veils, and maternity gowns I have in the studio (I have 5–6 different ones) if you wish. For lifestyle sessions, we move through the chosen location or interior with tenderness and focus around the baby :)
Maternity photo sessions can be done in several styles:
Posed, in studio (or occasionally a studio set up at your home): artistic posed maternity photos are most of the images above and the ones that have earned me international awards. In the studio we can create beautiful black-and-white images, delicate silhouettes in chiaroscuro, etc. These posed images can also be made outdoors using the maternity gowns I keep at the studio, notably on the beach.
Lifestyle: more natural, less posed photos, outdoors — by the sea, in the woods, or wherever you want — with less staging for a different kind of pregnancy memory.
Above are examples of both options with a few examples of maternity shoots in studio. If you would like to book a session or have photos taken by a professional photographer, feel free to contact me for a quote and online booking.
