As a photographer specialized in maternity photography in Leuben (Dresden), my focus is on capturing the special time of pregnancy with sensitivity and style. I don't create posed clichés but natural, aesthetic images that express closeness, anticipation and individual beauty. I work deliberately with natural light and cultivate a relaxed atmosphere in the studio or at selected outdoor locations where expectant mothers can feel safe and comfortable. Why choose me? Because maternity shoots are one of my core specialities. I take the time for a personal consultation, listen carefully and develop a concept with you that matches your vision—whether sensual-minimalist, romantic, or family-oriented with partner and siblings. In my cozy studio you'll find a selection of dresses, wraps and accessories that you are welcome to use. If you prefer an outdoor session, gentle light in parks or natural settings gives your images a timeless, emotive quality. The process is simple and respectful: we talk in advance about outfits and ideas, and during the shoot I ensure a calm, reassuring atmosphere while offering gentle guidance for relaxed poses. After you choose your favourite images, you will receive them in a password-protected online gallery—convenient to view and share with family and friends. My editing follows a natural, harmonious fine-art aesthetic: careful corrections, subtle retouching and a cohesive look that preserves the authenticity of your memories. It's important to me that you feel well looked-after: appointments are flexible, I offer tips on outfit choices and scheduling, and I respect your privacy (anonymous publication on request). If you wish, we can later combine the maternity session with a newborn shoot to create a consistent visual story from pregnancy to first family moments. If you are looking for an empathetic maternity photographer in Leuben/Dresden, I look forward to hearing from you. Together we will design a photoshoot that lovingly and authentically preserves your memories of this extraordinary time.
