Esmé Gernette Fotografie

As a specialist in maternity photography based in Zwijndrecht, Esmé Gernette captures pregnancies with a personal, warm and timeless approach. For her, a pregnancy shoot is more than pretty pictures: it’s a keepsake of a brief, deeply meaningful period. That’s why Esmé works from a place of calm and attention—no rushed poses, but real, feeling-filled moments you’ll proudly look back on. Her working method is relaxed and attentive. Before the shoot there is personal contact to discuss your wishes and the location; whether you choose the outdoors, the comfort of your own home, or her studio, Esmé creates a safe and cozy atmosphere. She offers gentle direction where needed while staying in the background so your connection remains the focal point. This balance helps even people who dislike posing feel at ease quickly. Styling and experience are part of the service: Esmé provides clothing advice and offers access to her client closet so flowing dresses or soft fabrics beautifully support the silhouette. She edits color-accurately, with a preference for warm, timeless images—sometimes in color, sometimes in black-and-white—so the emotion in every photo remains palpable. There is no time pressure; the shoot lasts as long as necessary to truly capture those special moments. After the session you’ll receive an online selection gallery with the most beautiful images. Esmé professionally retouches the chosen photos and delivers them digitally within a short turnaround time. For those who want to preserve the memory more broadly, she offers an optional mini film—a short moving memory that lets you relive small moments. Why choose Esmé Gernette? Because you’ll work with a maternity photographer from Zwijndrecht who specializes in pregnancy photography, pays attention to detail, offers a warm personal approach, and has a clear vision of timeless belly photography. She makes the unfamiliar feel familiar and translates brief moments into sincere, pure images you will cherish forever.
