FOTOlief - Fotograaf in Barendrecht

As a specialist in maternity photography, I — Martine from FOTOlief — lovingly and attentively capture your pregnancy. As a mother of two, I know how quickly this special period passes. That’s why I focus on recording pure, warm moments: the curve of the belly, the connection between partners, and the subtle details that gain meaning over time. My approach is personal and calm. Together we decide on a style that suits you: an intimate studio maternity shoot in my small, atmospheric home studio, or a natural outdoor session at one of the beautiful locations in the region. You may wear your own clothes or use my selection of maternity dresses and wraps, including pieces from Mii Estilo. If you prefer a sensitive, minimalist image with little clothing, a nude maternity portrait is also possible — always handled with respect for comfort and boundaries. During the session I create a relaxed atmosphere: no stiff posing, but gentle guidance and small prompts so you can unwind and let authenticity come through. I work calmly and take time for moments that feel real — a hand on the belly, a smile, a quiet exchange. Partners and older children are warmly welcome; together we create a variety of images that show the relationship and the growing family joy. My background in communication and years of experience in family photography give me an eye for detail and for the emotion behind an image. I combine that experience with a soft, documentary approach: natural light, muted colors, and attention to small details such as tiny hands and silhouettes. Choosing FOTOlief means choosing a caring, specialist approach to maternity photography in Rhoon and Barendrecht. I’m happy to help with styling advice and preparation so you can feel yourself in front of the camera. The result is timeless, personal maternity photos that you will look back on with warmth.
