maternity

unconditional love

Becoming a mum is definitely one of the most incredible experiences for a woman. 
Pregnancy is a suspended moment. 
A moment when two hearts beat inside us. 
A moment when we feel strong and vulnerable at the same time... And never alone. Never again.

I have carried life three times. It changed me forever. 
Motherhood is an integral part of my identity, and I'm really happy to share these precious moments with other women.

Take the time to appreciate your body, its lines, its curves, its strength. 
Take the time to feel it and to capture your motherhood in all its beauty. 

You are beautiful.

YOU ARE HERE

Because you're about to meet the love of a lifetime

THE PROCESS

+ GET IN TOUCH

Fill out the contact form on my website. I will be in touch within 24 hours. We will have a chat about what you want exactly, when and where. For a maternity session, the sweet spot to capture your bump is between 30 and 36 weeks.

+ secure the date

Once the date is chosen I'll send you a contract and invoice.
Your booking will be secure when I receive the signed contract and the deposit.

+ questionnaire & session guide

Once your session is booked I send you my session guide and a questionnaire. These documents are very helpful to bring your vision to life.

+ The session

Yay! It's time for our photoshoot.
We'll meet at the location and we'll take our time to create beautiful memories together,. Don't look for perfection! Trust the process, be present, embrace your authenticity, allow your emotions to shine, and the images will reflect your true story.

+ gallery delivery

I will deliver your photos via an online gallery 2-3 weeks after the session. When you receive your gallery you have two choices: pick 20 images or upgrade to the full gallery.

+ photo editing

I put all my heart into your galleries.
I carefully choose the photos, I enhance them while keeping their true essence, I remove things that you surely would not have noticed.

It's precision work on each photo, because each photo has its own story.

DURING THE session

connect, feel, cherish

Getting comfortable

We'll start by getting to know each other or by talking about what you said in your questionnaire, so you can feel at ease. This is your time, and I want you to feel comfortable being yourself. We'll talk, laugh and ease into the session naturally.

Be present and connected

I'll guide you gently, I'll give you some prompts, but my focus is on capturing the real you. There's no need to pose perfectly. Just be present and let the moment unfold. This is where the magic happens...

Soak up the moment

Together, we'll step into the flow of the session, allowing you to truly enjoy. Have fun, love each other or yourself, feel, laugh, observe, breathe... Do what you want! Enjoy this time alone or with those you love the most in the world. Whether it's a quiet glance or a burst of laughter, I'll be there to capture it authentically.

Creating timeless memories

By the end of our session, you'll have not just beautiful photos but a meaningful experience to look back on.
These images will reflect the connection and presence you felt, turning fleeting moments into timeless memories.

TIMELESS BOX

Fine art prints, handcrafted memories

I created this photograph box, the 'Timeless Box', so that you take the time to observe, touch, feel these memories. Because photos are not "just photos".
They are memories, frozen moments, pieces of the puzzle of our life.
It’s a warm hug, a love letter, encapsulated memories.
It’s luxury but its value is above all sentimental.
Don't let your pictures sleep in your phone or computer. Make them live!
They deserve a place in your home.
They are part of your life. They are pieces of your life.
