Maternity Photoshoot in North Holland – Natural, Personal & Beautiful
Being pregnant is such a special time. Everything shifts – your body, your rhythm, your emotions. It’s a chapter worth remembering. Not with stiff poses or artificial smiles, but with images that reflect who you truly are: strong, soft, glowing. My maternity shoots are all about connection, feeling and capturing your unique story.
Maternity photoshoot on location or in the studio
I offer maternity photoshoots throughout North Holland, both on location and in the studio. During spring and summer, I love shooting outdoors – early in the morning or during the golden hour. Think dunes near Heemstede, the beach at Bloemendaal, a blooming field or a quiet spot in the woods. Always somewhere that feels right for you.
Prefer to stay indoors? I work in a professional photo studio in Schagen (North Holland), equipped with daylight lamps, flash units and beautiful backdrops. It’s not a big industrial space, but a calm, stylish setting with character and atmosphere. I rent this space especially for your shoot – the extra cost is €75 for two hours.
Let’s talk about your wishes
Before the maternity shoot, we’ll talk about what you like and how you’d love to be photographed. Do you have a special item for your baby – a small teddy, a keepsake or a meaningful piece of jewelry? Bring it! These personal details make your photos even more valuable.
Want to add a little extra glow? I can arrange a hair & makeup artist before the shoot. Planning to visit the hairdresser? Great idea. And don’t forget your hands – yours and your partner’s. They often show up in close-up shots during a maternity session.
Client Closet Pregnancy shoot: dresses, bodysuits & styling tips
I have a carefully curated client closet with dresses, wraps and bodysuits (black and white) that you’re welcome to use. Whether your style is romantic, minimal, boho or bold – I’ve got options. You’ll also get styling advice from me beforehand so you feel prepared.
I encourage you to think outside the box. That one outfit you’d never wear to the grocery store? It might be perfect for your maternity photos. I love a touch of boldness, something slightly different – not over the top, but full of personality.

Who is this for?
I photograph expecting mothers from all over the Netherlands – from Haarlem to Utrecht, The Hague to Alkmaar. You are warmly welcome for a maternity shoot, no matter where you’re from. Many expats living in and around Haarlem have already found their way to me for a stylish and personal experience. Whether you live nearby or plan a day trip to the North Holland coast – I’m happy to help you find the perfect location and vibe.
