Pure Visions

Pure Visions in Pijnacker positions itself as the specialist in maternity photography. Raul Neijhorst has worked with expectant parents for years and has developed in practice into an experienced maternity photographer: creative, original and attentive to the personal side of every pregnancy. Why choose Pure Visions for your maternity shoot? Because Raul is not only technically skilled but above all sees moments and emotion. His approach is individual and personal — he doesn’t ask whether to work “inside or outside the box”, but rather: which box suits you? That results in images that are both intimate and timeless, showing exactly how that period feels. Thanks to his warm and relaxed manner, many clients feel comfortable, even when they were initially camera‑shy. Raul’s working method is thoughtful and flexible: he takes time, creates a calm atmosphere and tailors the images to your wishes — ranging from understated portraits to dramatic wraps and elegant dresses. The studio offers a wide selection of maternity gowns and wraps, but you are of course welcome to bring your own outfits. Partners and children are welcome; the session is about your story. If desired, makeup and hairstyling can be arranged with trusted makeup artists. The studio in Pijnacker is a comfortable, professional environment where calm and creativity come together. Raul often works barefoot to create a warm, safe atmosphere — an important aspect of maternity photography. Pure Visions combines professional lighting and experience with a down‑to‑earth, approachable attitude: no rush, but an experience you’ll look back on with pleasure. Raul’s background — born in Suriname, many years of studio experience, international recognition and personal projects such as books about Surinamese personalities — informs his vision and makes his work distinctive. He captures not only the physical image of pregnancy but also the energy and the feeling behind it. In short: if you are looking for a specialised, creative maternity photographer in or around Pijnacker who combines calm, craftsmanship and personal contact, Pure Visions and Raul are happy to welcome you to create images that repeatedly bring back that special period.
