Bart van der Aa Fotografie

As a specialist in maternity photography, Bart van der Aa from Sint-Oedenrode carefully captures the unique period of your pregnancy. His approach is personal and calm: the aim is not only beautiful images but also a pleasant experience in which you feel at ease. Because every pregnancy is different, Bart tailors the shoot to your wishes — from intimate portraits to atmospheric outdoor photos using natural light. Approach and atmosphere Bart works on location or in his wheelchair-accessible photo studio, where a range of backdrops and props are available. During an introductory conversation he discusses which styles and compositions suit you. The photoshoot itself proceeds in a relaxed, unhurried manner; Bart usually allows about an hour so there is room for changing poses, accessories and optional photos with your partner, children or pets. What makes his maternity photography special? Bart places emphasis on warmth, security and genuine moments. He uses soft, natural lighting in the studio and selects outdoor locations that offer varied possibilities so you get diversity in mood and background. With experience in different post-processing styles and filters, Bart can subtly edit images to match your taste while preserving the natural look. Practical tips and collaboration Bart often advises scheduling the maternity shoot around the 35th week, when the bump typically looks beautifully rounded. You are welcome to bring personal items — such as baby shoes or a favorite toy — and Bart also has various props available. Because he offers both maternity and newborn photography, it’s possible to combine sessions to create a cohesive visual story of your pregnancy and the first days after birth. Location and accessibility Based in Sint-Oedenrode (Meierijstad), Bart is easily reachable for expectant parents in the region. His studio is accessible to people with reduced mobility and he is flexible when planning appointments, including times outside regular hours when needed. In short: choose Bart van der Aa for expert, warm and personal maternity photography that not only delivers beautiful images but also a relaxed keepsake of a special phase in your life.
