As a maternity photography specialist in Heerhugowaard, Dave Weij captures your pregnancy in the Love Collection Shoot: intimate, powerful and timeless images in studio or on location.
Creating memories through photography is my driving force — and with maternity photography I feel that even more strongly. As a specialist in maternity photography in Heerhugowaard (studio: Het Zakenstation, Stationsstraat 99) I focus on capturing those rare, intimate moments that belong to pregnancy. My Love Collection Shoot (maternity) offers a personal approach: exploratory, poignantly beautiful, or bold and high-contrast — precisely tailored to how you want to remember this time. My maternity photography style moves between three recognizable atmospheres: striking black-and-white portraits, soft romantic images, and dark, powerful photos with strong contrast. With years of experience — I have worked as a professional photographer since 2011 — I’ve developed techniques and a working method that create painterly light and a Rembrandt-like character in portraits. That gives your maternity photos a timeless, refined quality, ideal to proudly hang on the wall. Your comfort is central during the shoot. We often plan sessions between 32–35 weeks to capture the best shapes and poses, and the session typically lasts about one and a half hours during which I guide, reassure and assist with posing and outfit changes. You can choose our 65 m² studio in Heerhugowaard with multiple backdrops and private changing space, or I’m happy to come on location or to your home if that feels better. Afterwards you select the images that speak most to you; I deliver them professionally edited and in high resolution. Birth photography is also part of my expertise — for those who want the whole process documented, from pregnancy to the first moments with the baby. I work respectfully, with integrity and recognizability, so the photos provide comfort and lasting memories for the whole family. Choosing me means choosing personal attention, a calm working atmosphere and an artistic, sensitive approach to maternity photography.
