Photography is my profession. People are my passion. Based in Pulheim, I specialise in sensitive maternity (Babybauch) sessions that capture the quiet magic and emotion of pregnancy. For me, pregnancy photography is more than portraiture: it preserves a unique life phase with all its nuances, feelings and shapes for years to come. My approach is personal and calm. I begin with a consultation to discuss your wishes, favourite locations and wardrobe ideas. Whether at home, at a meaningful outdoor spot or in my Pulheim studio, I create a relaxed atmosphere where you can feel comfortable and natural. My aim is for you to be photographed as you want to be seen — strong, tender, joyful or reflective — according to your mood. I combine classical photographic principles with careful digital retouching to maintain natural colours and authentic expressions. After the session you receive access to a secure online gallery to select your favourites from the comfort of your home. I can also design high-quality photo books and cards to make these memories tangible. My classical training and many years of experience enable me to work confidently in challenging light or delicate situations. I prioritise patience and a measured pace so that even camera-shy mothers-to-be or couples end up delighted with their images. If you are looking for a maternity photoshoot in Pulheim or the surrounding area, I would love to hear from you. Share your ideas or schedule a non-binding conversation — I look forward to creating unforgettable pregnancy photos with you.
