A little about my approach

This chapter deserves
to be remembered.

Pregnancy is one of the most powerful, fleeting things a body ever does. The weight of it. The glow of it. The quiet anticipation. I photograph maternity sessions on location across the Netherlands — no poses that feel like someone else's idea of beautiful.

I'll find the light that works for you, suggest a location that feels right for the season, and then I'll step back and let the moment lead. You don't need to do anything except show up and be exactly where you are.

What to expect

The details

01 The session
The maternity session

One unhurried hour,
just us and the light.

We meet on location — outdoors in nature, golden fields, or wherever feels like you. No rushing. I'll guide you gently through it all so you can just be present in this moment.

Sessions typically last 1 hour. I'll suggest some locations in your area based on the season and light, or we can use a spot that's meaningful to you.

  • 1 hour on location
  • Gentle posing guidance throughout
  • Partner, children & pets welcome

When you book, I'll send you the full lookbook so you can choose your favourites ahead of time. We can mix your own pieces with wardrobe pieces too.

Also available · An intimate alternative

A little more intimate.
A different setting.

Sometimes the right setting is quiet, warm, and intimate. I work with beautiful daylight studios across the Netherlands — get in touch and we'll find the right one for you.

For a more fully styled experience, explore my boudoir studio offering: a private studio, professional hair & makeup, and time for a personally guided two-hour session. We can discuss whether this approach suits the maternity photographs you have in mind.

What clients say

★★★★★
Myrthe created two photo sets of our family — when I was pregnant and then with a newborn. Super welcoming environment. She allowed the newborn set to be slow and led by our baby. We felt very relaxed and cosy. And the photos are also beautiful. Our go-to photographer.

Frequently asked
questions

01 When is the best time to do a maternity shoot?
Between 28 and 34 weeks is the sweet spot — your bump is beautifully round and you're still comfortable moving around freely. That said, every pregnancy is different, so get in touch and we'll figure out the best timing for you.
02 Where do sessions take place?
Most sessions are on location outdoors — nature, golden fields, forests, or a spot that's meaningful to you. I suggest 2–3 locations based on the season and light. Indoor studio sessions are also available for a cleaner, more intimate setting.
03 What should I wear?
You're welcome to borrow from my client wardrobe — a curated collection of flowing dresses in soft, neutral tones, included at no extra cost. Earth tones and soft neutrals photograph beautifully. Try to avoid dark colours, heavy prints, and logos, as they tend to draw attention away from the moment. You can also mix your own pieces with wardrobe pieces.
04 Can my partner and children join?
Absolutely — partners, children and even pets are very welcome. These sessions are about your family as it is right now, and everyone who matters to you is welcome to be part of it.
05 What if the weather is bad?
No stress — we reschedule at no cost. I always keep a flexible buffer for weather changes, so we'll find a new date that works for both of us.
06 When will I receive my photos?
Your edited images will be delivered within 2–3 weeks, straight to a private online gallery. From there you can download, share, and print — full printing rights are included, no watermarks, no extra fees.
07 Do you travel outside Utrecht?
Yes, I'm available anywhere in the Netherlands. Travel within Utrecht is included. For locations further away, a travel fee of €0.35 per km applies.
08 How do I book?
Simply send me a message via the contact page. We'll have a short, relaxed chat to talk through your ideas, timing, and location — and then we'll plan something beautiful together.
