§ Prestation The sessions

Maternity photographer in Lyon

The weeks before the birth.

€220Duration · 1 hour

A couple cross the courtyard of a Lyon palace, hand in hand, before the birth.

Maternity

A gentle, modest maternity session, by a window's light or outdoors. We take our time; nothing is rushed.

The idea isn't to stage anything, but to keep an honest trace of this time: on your own, as a couple, or with the older ones.

§ How it works

  • At home or outdoors, in a calm setting
  • An unhurried pace, suited to your comfort
  • Natural light, soft tones, black and white if you like

Parents-to-be, usually from the seventh month.

§ The work

Recent sessions.

Every session has its own page — the photographs, in the order they were made.

§ How it runs

How it goes.

  1. We talk

    You write to me with the date, the place and what you have in mind. We talk it through, I send you a tailored quote, and the date is held once you book.

  2. We prepare

    I send you a few simple tips beforehand — what to wear, the place, the time of day. Nothing complicated: mostly it's about being yourselves.

  3. The session

    An hour, at your own pace, at home or outdoors. We take our time; nothing is rushed, and we stop whenever you'd like.

  4. You receive your photographs

    A quick preview, then the full private gallery in high resolution within a few weeks, depending on the season. You download your images and keep them for good.

§ Questions

What people ask me.

That's true of almost everyone, and putting you at ease is my job. We move gently, without stiff poses; the real images arrive once you forget the camera.
A documentary approach, in natural light: I favour real moments and honest interactions over perfect poses. I work in colour as readily as in black and white.
Very few, and always gently. A few posed portraits are possible (the two of you at a wedding, for instance), but the heart of it stays the moments as they happen.
For a session, a few weeks is usually enough. For a wedding, it's best to plan several months ahead, especially in high season.
