Through my lens, I capture the glow of motherhood, the love, the anticipation, and the sheer miracle of life.
Each session is a celebration of the journey into motherhood, a tribute to the beauty of pregnancy that deserves to be immortalized. Why maternity?
Twenty years ago, when I discovered I was pregnant, capturing those precious moments on camera wasn't as popular as it is today, so I missed the chance to document that beautiful time in my life. As my son grew up, I longed to show him pictures of when he was still growing inside me. I wanted to reminisce about those magical months and remember how I looked, how I felt, and the joy that filled our home. But alas, there were no photographs to turn to, no tangible memories to cherish.
This absence of captured moments sparked a fire within me—a desire to ensure that no other mother would experience the same longing, the same void. And so, I made a choice—I chose to become a maternity photographer.
As I watch expectant mothers embrace their bellies with pride and joy, I see myself in them—I see the longing, the desire to freeze time and preserve these fleeting moments. And with every click of the camera, I know that I am creating memories, not just for them, but for myself as well—a reminder of the journey that led me here and the legacy I am leaving behind. I pour my heart and soul into each photoshoot, guiding expectant mothers with care, patience, and understanding.
My studio became a haven for women seeking to capture the beauty of their pregnancies, to freeze moments of love, anticipation, and joy in timeless photographs. And with every click of my camera, I feel a deep sense of fulfillment—a reminder of the journey that had led me here, to this meaningful vocation.
