As a maternity photography specialist in Odenthal, I capture your baby bump in natural, stylish pregnancy photos. Personal, relaxed, and empathetic—Heike Mintel creates timeless memories in a studio.
I am Heike from Erstbelichtung Baby Photography — a specialist in maternity photography based in Odenthal. As a mother and an experienced photographer, I understand how precious the time of pregnancy is. My aim for every maternity shoot is genuine closeness, natural poses, and relaxed images that honestly reflect your anticipation and bond. Why choose me? Because I combine heartfelt maternity photography with professional routine. For many years I have accompanied expectant mothers and couples: I listen, advise, and shape the shoot according to your wishes. My style is calm, unobtrusive and natural — no excessive staging, but pregnancy photos that show you as you are: loving, proud and full of expectation. How I work: Before the appointment we take a moment to get to know each other — in person or by phone/WhatsApp — and discuss style, outfits and locations. In my cosy, feel-good studio in Odenthal your maternity shoot takes place in a relaxed atmosphere. I take my time, guide gently and use light, wraps and simple accessories so that the silhouette and the emotions remain central. Many couples appreciate the quiet, almost meditative mood I create intentionally, so you can relax and be yourselves. My approach is personal: I advise on clothing choices (natural colours, flowing fabrics), allow breaks and always put your wellbeing first. After the shoot I present the best images in a personal viewing session and assist with the selection — so the photos become valuable keepsakes. On request, I design high-quality products such as albums or photo displays to beautifully preserve your pregnancy. As a maternity specialist in Odenthal, I look forward to photographing your special time — an experience meant to move you and create images you will return to with joy. Contact me for a no-obligation pre-session consultation and to book your maternity (baby-bump) shoot in a relaxed studio atmosphere.
