Leonie of By Leetje Photography specializes in maternity photography in Hillegom. She creates spontaneous, playful outdoor sessions using natural light and delivers professionally edited, high-res images.
As a maternity photography specialist, By Leetje Photography captures the magic of your pregnancy in Hillegom with a fresh, personal approach. I’m Leonie: enthusiastic, creative and detail-oriented — and I believe the most beautiful maternity photos come when you feel relaxed and can be yourselves. A sense of humour and an easygoing atmosphere are key ingredients during my sessions; the more spontaneous, the better. My style focuses on natural, emotional images. I prefer outdoor locations and natural light because they produce soft, timeless portraits. Many couples choose a session during the golden hour — roughly 1.5 hours before sunset — which gives warm, dreamy light ideal for belly photos. If the sky is overcast, we usually continue with the session; if heavy rain is forecast, we’ll agree on a new date together. I guide you step by step: we choose the location and mood, I give simple directions to help you feel comfortable, and I look for those spontaneous moments of connection — between you and your partner, or with older children. During the shoot I create a warm, playful atmosphere where laughter and silliness are welcomed; often the most genuine images arise then. After the session I carefully edit all selected photos; you’ll receive professional retouching and high-resolution files in a private online gallery so you can easily download and share your images. For couples who want the full story, I also offer a combined Maternity & Newborn shoot option, keeping the connection between pregnancy and your baby’s first moments. I live and work in the Bollenstreek, close to Hillegom, and I consider it a privilege to help parents-to-be create memories that last a lifetime. Book your session ideally a few months in advance to secure a spot in my schedule. If you have questions or want to know which locations I recommend, I’d love to hear from you — feel free to get in touch.
