Sophie Terluin fotografie

As a specialist in maternity photography in Alkmaar, Sophie Terluin approaches every pregnancy with care, gentleness and a creative eye. A mother herself and deeply moved by the small‑yet‑grand miracle of new life, Sophie believes pregnancy photos are more than pretty images: they are tangible memories you will want to feel again and again. Her style is 'playful, pure and spontaneous' — no stiff posing, no fuss. Sophie creates a safe, relaxed atmosphere so you feel at ease; often the most beautiful images appear when you forget the camera is there. Whether you choose an intimate session at home or a natural location in and around Alkmaar, Sophie works with light and composition to capture the softness and strength of your pregnancy. She notices the little gestures — hand on belly, a glance toward your partner, an unexpected smile — and translates them into warm, timeless maternity photos. During the preparation Sophie takes the time to understand what matters to you: the emotions you want reflected, which clothing or locations feel comfortable, and whether you prefer understated images or ones full of movement. On the day she guides you gently; with small directions and playful prompts she helps you move and laugh naturally. Her aesthetic is soft, natural and refined — ideal for maternity and belly photography that will be cherished for generations. After the shoot Sophie carefully selects the best images and applies loving, professional post‑processing. You receive photos ready to share, print, or preserve in an album or on your wall. If you have specific wishes for a photo book or wall decor, Sophie is happy to advise which options best suit your interior and story.
