Pregnancy veils you in a mesmerising beauty and unparalleled strength.
This moment in your life is quite simply glorious.
It is a moment that calls for celebration. So much changes, so much is created and made possible for a new life to come.
My approach keeps posing to a minimum and laughter at the forefront; authentically combining individual beauty with fine art into a beautiful portrait that is both elegant and unique.
I’m not looking for perfect. I’m looking to celebrate you, your body that’s busy creating a wonderful little human.
I am looking to give you a space to really shine fearlessly showing off that little miracle inside of you.
