As a wedding photographer based in Holzkirchen, I have learned that authentic emotion and a calm pace are key to memorable images — lessons I bring to my maternity photography. My baby-bump sessions aim to capture the unique glow and anticipation of pregnancy in elegant, timeless photographs. I favour a personal, relaxed approach. With my mobile studio I can shoot where you feel most comfortable — at home, in nature or at a chosen location. The mobile setup delivers controlled lighting and the intimacy needed for expressive maternity portraits, without requiring you to travel. If desired, I also bring a mobile changing tent so wardrobe changes are easy and private. Why choose me? I prioritise thorough consultations and a comfortable session atmosphere. Before the shoot we discuss the visual mood, outfit suggestions and any special wishes — ensuring the images reflect you. During the session I take my time: a maternity shoot should be enjoyable, not rushed. Technically I use careful light shaping and refined post-processing to bring out natural skin tones, contrast and mood. Retouching, colour grading and stylistic filters are part of the final polish. With background in wedding, family and newborn photography, I understand the transition from pregnancy into early family life and can create images that remain meaningful over time. I look forward to guiding expectant parents from Holzkirchen and the surrounding region — with respect, experience and a love for genuine photography.
