Motherhood

Maternity shoot

Capture the beauty and excitement of your pregnancy, and create lasting memories of this special time in your life where you and your baby share the same body. The best time to schedule your maternity shoot is between 28-36 weeks of pregnancy. This is when your bump will be most visible, but your energy levels are generally still ok and you'll still be comfortable enough to move around and pose for photos.

Newborn shoot

Blink and they're all grown up - it's not just a cliché, but especially true for your newborn baby. They are only that small for such a short time, and it's easy to forget this precious, raw, and intense time in your life when you're all caught up in the busy day-to-day life of being a parent. In a newborn shoot we will freeze time for a moment. We can schedule a session during the first days or weeks postpartum (the 'Kraamweek' in Dutch) - or whenever you feel ready.

Birth Photography

The birth of your child is one of the most significant events in your life. Having this moment captured allows you to relive, process and sometimes even heal this experience, serving as a visual reminder of the incredible strength, courage, and love that brought your baby into the world. To capture your birth I will be on call for you 24/7 from 38 weeks onwards. Please note that I only have very limited space to take on new clients.

The ability of women to create, carry and give life is truly humbling to me.Through my work I strive to empower women by helping them see themselves in a positive light and appreciate their immense strength & beauty as a mother.

Book a shoot

When is the best time to book a shoot?

You can schedule a maternity or newborn photoshoot with me at any time that works for you. However, if you’re considering having your birth captured by me, please reach out to me to discuss availability, as my schedule for birth clients is limited. For a prenatal shoot, the ideal window is usually between 28 and 36 weeks, when your belly is most pronounced and you’re still feeling energized.

 

Location Options:

I can visit your home, or we can book a time slot at a professional photo studio. Alternatively, we can also go outdoors in nature. Please note that the cost of booking a photo studio is not included in my fee.

 

Outdoor Photoshoots:

For outdoor shoots, I prefer to take photos during the “golden hour”, which is either (really) early in the morning or late at night, depending on the season. This is my favorite lighting to work with, but can be hard to plan due to limited sunny days in the Netherlands. Weather conditions are beyond my control, so please keep this in mind when booking an outdoor shoot. I have limited availability, so we can only reschedule the outdoor photoshoot if the weather conditions are extreme (rain, storm, or thunder).

 

Here’s an indication of golden hour timings throughout the year:
