By Monica Stout fotografie

As a specialist in maternity photography, I’m Monica Stout, and I capture the tender, unique period of your pregnancy with sensitivity and care. My style is honest and relaxed: no stiff posing, just gentle guidance and playful moments that allow your real connections to show. Those are the images that will bring you back to that special feeling time and again. My love for documenting new life comes from my own experience as a mother. That personal connection helps me understand how precious each moment is—and how quickly it passes. I bring that emotion into every shoot: whether we choose an intimate session at your home or a natural outdoor setting, I make sure you feel comfortable so the most beautiful moments arise naturally. Why choose me as your maternity photographer in Sliedrecht? I focus on creating timeless, warm images with attention to detail—the way a partner’s loving glance, the embrace of the bump, or a soft interaction with older children can tell your story. I work with natural light and give calm, cheerful directions so you can enjoy the session rather than worry about posing. Throughout the process we’ll select the best location and ideal time together. Preparation is important: I provide a practical shoot guide with outfit tips and styling advice so you arrive confident in front of the lens. After the session I carefully select and edit the best images—delivering both color and moody black-and-white versions—and present them in a private online gallery for you to view and share. My approach is personal, warm, and professional. I aim for more than just photographs; I want to create memories that let you relive that extraordinary feeling again and again. If you prefer working with a photographer who brings calm, spontaneity, and expert post-processing, I would love to document your pregnancy and preserve this precious chapter in images. Contact me from Sliedrecht and the surrounding area—I'm happy to help capture your favourite love story and turn these fleeting moments into lasting keepsakes.
