Studio Pixels

At Studio Pixels everything is about genuine moments and warm memories — and that absolutely applies to maternity photography. I’m Els, the face behind Studio Pixels in Zoetermeer, and I specialise in maternity shoots that feel authentic, loving and relaxed. My aim is to capture your pregnancy in a way that suits you: no forced poses, but images where emotion, connection and beauty take centre stage. My approach is personal and calm. From experience I know many expectant mothers find being photographed a bit daunting. That’s why I first build trust: we talk about style, clothing and mood, I give practical wardrobe tips and you have access to my client closet with dresses and soft fabrics that work beautifully for bump photography. Whether we choose the soft natural light of my daylight studio or a lovely outdoor location in South Holland, I create a relaxed setting where you can just be yourself. What sets my maternity photos apart is the focus on emotion and detail. I watch for intimate moments between you and your partner, the subtle touches on the bump and the small gestures that will mean so much later. My style is warm, timeless and natural — images you’ll still feel connected to years from now. During the shoot I offer gentle guidance and playful little distractions so that spontaneous looks and relaxed poses emerge, even if you feel uncertain at first. Beyond the session itself, I carefully handle post-processing: I refine colours and contrast subtly so the atmosphere of the day is preserved. I guide you step by step, from planning the shoot to selecting your favourite images. Because I believe this time is special, I make space and give you calm during the session — no rush, just attention. Would you like maternity photos that feel safe, warm and pure? From Zoetermeer I’d love to help make this phase tangible so you can look back with joy on how you felt before the baby arrived. Get in touch and let’s capture your pregnancy together.
