Marco Palmer Photography

My primary focus is wedding photography & film—telling authentic, timeless stories of couples on their big day. Complementing that work, I occasionally photograph maternity sessions because I value capturing life’s intimate transitions with the same sensitivity and aesthetic. The approach I bring to baby bump shoots mirrors what clients appreciate in my wedding work: unobtrusive presence, a focus on real moments, and an elegant visual style. For pregnancy photography I aim to document the quiet intimacy and joyful anticipation between expectant parents — natural, unstaged and relaxed. Process: We start with a short introduction (I’m happy to meet via video call), discuss your ideas and choose a fitting setting — a cosy studio portrait session in Mainz or a soft-light outdoor shoot by the Rhine (Nonnenaue). I guide you gently through poses, create a calm atmosphere and share styling tips so even those who aren’t used to being photographed feel comfortable. My visual language blends modern elegance with documentary sensitivity: warm tones, clean compositions and attention to small, emotional gestures. Thanks to my wedding experience I bring timing, calm and a strong sense of trust to every maternity session. If you love a nostalgic look, analogue film images can also be arranged. Although weddings remain my main specialty, I treat maternity shoots with the same care and dedication. If you’d like to preserve this unique time in heartfelt, beautiful photographs, get in touch — I’d love to hear about your plans and create lasting memories together.
