Dailystills

As a maternity photography specialist in Zaanstad, Dailystills is fully dedicated to capturing that unique period while your baby grows inside you. I’m Shannon — a graphic designer and passionate photographer — and my work blends a love for natural compositions with a keen eye for shape, color and emotion. The result is maternity photography that feels warm, timeless and personal. Why choose Dailystills for your maternity shoot? I approach maternity photography with attention and calm. I favour natural daylight: in my daylight studio or on beautiful outdoor locations I work with soft, natural light that flatters your shape and mood. I don’t use stiff, exaggerated poses but instead give gentle "prompts" — small, playful directions that encourage movement and genuine interaction. This way spontaneous, loving images are created that you can truly recognise. My background in graphic design means I pay close attention to styling and visual coherence. That’s why you can use the Client Closet free of charge: carefully selected dresses and accessories that suit my aesthetic. Before the session we discuss clothing, locations and your preferences so you feel comfortable and prepared. Practical and wardrobe tips are part of the preparation to ensure the shoot flows smoothly and the photos match your vision. The process is personal and transparent: we agree on date and location together (many clients choose the period between 28–36 weeks), during the shoot I create a relaxed atmosphere, and afterwards I work thoughtfully on the editing. Shortly after the session you’ll receive an online selection gallery where you can choose your favourite images. The result is retouched, high-resolution maternity photos you’ll be proud to hang on the wall or use for birth announcements and keepsakes. Whether you prefer an intimate studio session in Zaanstad or a natural outdoor location, at Dailystills your comfort and authentic story come first. Would you like a maternity shoot that combines calm, connection and timeless design? Get in touch — I’d love to help plan a personal, loving session.
