Elise Schuurman Fotografie

Timeless, colorful and with a touch of artistry — that’s how I approach maternity photography. As a specialist in maternity photography in the Zwolle area, I aim to capture nothing less than the true story of this extraordinary chapter. My focus is on connection and honest moments; no forced poses, but images you feel and want to return to time and again. What sets me apart is my calm, personal working method. I take the time to get to know your wishes and create a relaxed atmosphere during the shoot so you can be yourself. Whether we opt for an intimate session at your home or at a location that means something to you, I always work with attention to detail and an eye for color and composition. The result is a series of maternity portraits that feel both timeless and modern — sometimes soft and natural, sometimes with a subtle artistic touch. Many expectant parents wonder about clothing. That’s why I offer dress options from my client wardrobe; you can view selections on my Instagram. These dresses are chosen to flatter your silhouette and to suit the warm, colorful style you see in my work. During the preparation I’m happy to advise on styling, locations and poses so everything comes together on the day. My approach is documentary but considered: I observe, wait for those genuine moments and gently guide when needed to capture natural connections. For me, maternity photography is not only about the image, but about preserving feeling — the anticipation, the laughter, the calm and togetherness. I strive to translate those emotions into photographs that are both personal and timeless. Are you looking for a maternity photographer in Zwolle who will give specialist attention to your story?
