Maryse Fotografie

As a specialist in maternity photography, Maryse Hettinga of Maryse Fotografie in Mijdrecht captures the beauty and strength of your pregnancy with a warm, personal approach. Her work breathes calm: soft colors, painterly compositions and dreamy light combine to translate the tender moments of motherhood into timeless maternity photos. Why choose Maryse? Because she sees motherhood as something precious and multi-faceted. With humor and attentive care, Maryse helps you feel at ease—even when that feels hard. Her mission is clear: to reconnect mothers with their own strength so they feel seen and valued. That shows in images where you truly recognise yourself: no forced smiles, but skin-to-skin moments, bare feet and honestly emotional photographs. The process is personal and unhurried. There is always contact beforehand to discuss your wishes and ideas, to advise on styling and location, and to choose a mood that suits you. Maryse works both in her atmospheric studio and outdoors in nature—think heathland, forest or the golden hour—so you can choose intimate, timeless portraits or light, natural pregnancy photos. During the shoot she takes her time, offers gentle encouragement and creates a relaxed atmosphere in which true moments arise. Maryse combines a professional eye with the sensitivity of a mother who experiences life with children herself. She works frequently in the Ronde Venen region, around Mijdrecht and Waverveen, and is happy to travel to locations such as the Amsterdamse Bos (Amsterdam Forest). Every image is carefully edited to preserve warmth and authenticity—ready to hang on your wall or to keep as a cherished memory in your album. If you are looking for a pregnancy shoot that is more than just photos—a loving, personal celebration of this special chapter—Maryse Fotografie in Mijdrecht is the maternity specialist you are looking for. Feel free to get in touch to capture your story together.
