Almelo-based maternity photography specialist Moniek creates calm, loving pregnancy shoots that capture your bond and the beauty of your belly. Personal, stylish and respectful.
As an experienced birth photographer with a warm focus on everything surrounding new life, I — Moniek Aansorgh — am also specialized in maternity photography from my base in Almelo. My approach to maternity photography has one simple aim: to help you pause and consciously enjoy this extraordinary time. A pregnancy shoot for me is not a performance, but a personal hour in which your connection, anticipation and the tenderness around your growing belly are central. My style is soft, honest and respectful. I work with natural poses, subtle light and a calm approach so even those who are usually shy can relax. The atmosphere during a session often feels like an oasis of calm: we make time for you and your partner, cuddle, laugh and sometimes sit quietly. That results in images that are not only beautiful but full of feeling — photographs you will look back on with pride and wonder. What sets me apart is my many years of experience with birth and newborn projects: I understand the emotions and the story around pregnancy and young families. I use that experience to give your maternity shoot depth and meaning. I work with full attention and care, remain discreet and do everything I can to make you feel at ease. Many parents choose to record their pregnancy photos together with birth or newborn photography; that creates a coherent, personal record of this life-changing period. The process is personal and clear: we start with a no‑obligation introductory meeting so you can feel whether there’s a click. Then we schedule a relaxed session — preferably at a time and location where you feel comfortable. After the shoot I gladly guide you through a viewing and ordering session to choose your favorite images and offer advice on prints or an album, so the photos don’t stay on a phone but take a cherished place in your home. Would you like maternity photography in Almelo or the surrounding area that is loving, professional and attentive? Contact me for a no‑obligation introductory meeting. Together we’ll create memories that last a lifetime.
