MasaraZZZi Fotografie

Hi, I’m Mascha from MasaraZZZi Photography — I specialise in maternity photography in Gouda. For me a maternity shoot is about more than pretty pictures: it’s about capturing a vulnerable yet powerful phase in your life. My style is authentic and calm; I work with care and attention so you can feel completely yourself in front of the camera. Why choose a maternity session with me? I combine years of experience working with children (in childcare and education) with a genuine love for people photography. That background helps me put you at ease, even if being photographed doesn’t feel natural right away. I believe it’s important that we plan together in advance: we’ll discuss styling, clothing and the mood so the shoot truly reflects who you are. In my permanent studio on James Wattstraat in Gouda I have several maternity gowns, including Mii‑Estilo dresses, with which I like to create an elegant, timeless look. Prefer an outdoor or alternative location? That’s possible too — I work both in studio and on-location, choosing light, background and composition that best enhance your silhouette and emotion. The best time for bump photography is around the 34th week; together we’ll decide the ideal moment. What does a maternity session with me look like? We start with a relaxed introduction and planning call; during the shoot I create a calm atmosphere, give clear direction and allow space to move. I use natural poses and soft lighting, and I can assist with styling and small props if that suits the desired look. My goal is to create images you will return to with warmth — photos that preserve the feeling of that moment. My approach is personal and involved. Don’t expect a run-of-the-mill session: we create something tailored, with attention to emotion and connection. Curious about possibilities or want to brainstorm your maternity shoot in Gouda? I’d love to hear your ideas so we can make something beautiful together.
