Monika Bleck Fotografie

I’m Moni — a proud mum, dog lover and passionate photographer based in Mönchengladbach. Since 2015 I’ve been accompanying families, couples and expectant mothers with the care and dedication these life moments deserve. As an experienced wedding and maternity photographer I focus on capturing sincere, unstaged moments. For a maternity session it’s not about perfect poses but about you — your anticipation, your closeness and the personal details of this time. My approach is relaxed, friendly and empathetic. You should never feel like you have to “perform” for the camera. I often hear after a shoot: “It didn’t feel like a photoshoot, more like a visit from a friend.” That’s the atmosphere I aim to create. Whether we shoot a cozy homestory at your place, at a favorite outdoor location, or at sunset in a wheat field — I choose light and composition to make your emotions visible. I offer sensitive pregnancy sessions tailored to your wishes: the dad is of course welcome, siblings and even the family dog can join. Many of the most beautiful images appear between weeks 34 and 37, when belly and emotions harmonize best. During the session I encourage natural actions — hands on the belly, a shared walk, a tender look — and capture these moments in a reportage style. My images should allow you to relive this fleeting time again and again. I work with attention to detail but remain unobtrusive: warm, honest moments, loving gestures and the little specifics that make you unique. If you value natural pregnancy photography and want a warm, relaxed photographer in Mönchengladbach and the surrounding area, I’d love to capture a piece of your story for eternity.
