Maternity & New born Photographer
Toulon & Hyères
Maternity, between smiles, tears & tenderness...
Pregnancy and birth are unique moments in a family’s life. As a family photographer, I am here to capture the precious moments of this special period. My documentary-style approach will provide you with natural, timeless, and authentic images that reflect the beauty and tenderness of these times. I primarily work in the Toulon and Hyères region for small family events, but I also regularly travel to Nice for your maternity and newborn photo sessions.
A photo session that reflects your unique style for your pregnancy.
Want to capture your round belly? These 9 months pass both quickly and slowly at the same time. It’s a major event in your life, and to preserve these memories, there’s nothing like a beautiful pregnancy photo session. Whether alone, with your partner, with older siblings, or even with your beloved pet, we’ll take the time to create natural and unique images that will allow you to cherish these 9 months with joy.
With my documentary, lifestyle-inspired approach, I offer a photo session either outdoors (beach, mountains, fields, garden…) or in the cozy comfort of your home, to forever capture the tender beauty of your pregnancy.
In summary: we either head out or stay in, we have fun, and most importantly, you enjoy YOUR moment together before the big change…
Tender and Natural Newborn Photos
Has the new wonder of the world arrived? Your happiness is at its peak, your hormones have turned your daily life into Space Mountain, your home feels like Mordor, and your sleep is so elusive it requires quantum physics to measure? But little Choupi is too adorable, and this won’t last forever, so you want to capture these first days!
No worries! I’ll come to your home and provide you with a lifestyle photojournalistic approach, fully respecting the needs of your newborn. Naturally and spontaneously, without artificial lighting to avoid disturbing your baby’s sensitive eyes, I will adapt to your pace and that of your baby. Gently and without intervention, we will take all the time needed to follow the rhythm of feedings, diaper changes, and naps, to authentically and emotionally document the story of these early family days.
A high-quality photo album to relive these unique moments
To extend the joy of your maternity and newborn photos, I offer the creation of a high-quality photo album. Printed in France on premium photo paper, the album with lay-flat binding is perfect for preserving your memories and allowing you to revisit them unaltered for years to come.

Pregnancy/Newborn Photo Sessions FAQ
To get started, please contact me through the contact form to share your ideas for the photo session.
Upon receiving your request, I will respond by sending you a booklet with details on how a session with me will proceed. If you need any additional information, feel free to call, email, or meet with me as needed.
To confirm the booking (and thus the date), if everything suits you, you will need to sign the contract and pay the required amount.
After that, all that’s left is to meet at the agreed location and time to let your desires unfold
For maternity photos, the ideal time is during the 7th month: you’ll have a nicely rounded belly and won’t be too exhausted with every movement. It’s the “perfect” period.
For newborns, it’s best to schedule the session before they are 3 weeks old to avoid peeling, infant acne, and other less photogenic issues. But of course, we can adapt to your needs!
I primarily work in the Toulon and Hyères region for photo sessions. I also travel frequently to Nice, so I can definitely come there for your maternity or newborn photo shoots.
Travel costs are covered within the area between Toulon, Hyères, and Brignoles. Beyond this, mileage costs are charged based on actual expenses (fuel/toll) in addition to the service fee.
For newborns, it’s quite simple: to protect them from the elements, heat, or cold, I generally come to your home and we do the session there.
For maternity sessions, I prefer to go to a location that you like and that has a special meaning or appeal for you. But if you don’t have any ideas, don’t worry! I also have a list of great places to suggest!
The maternity package includes 1.5 hours of coverage. This allows time to get comfortable, get to know each other, and not feel rushed, so you can make the most of the moment.
The newborn package also includes 1.5 hours of coverage, ensuring ample time to adapt to your little one and their rhythm. The session flows with feedings, diaper changes, cuddles, and sleep, without ever disrupting or interfering with their essential needs.
Not a problem at all! We’ll take the time needed; you do what you need to for your and your baby’s well-being. Meanwhile, I’ll take photos discreetly, without interfering or causing any inconvenience. I’ll simply be a quiet observer of your tender moments with your baby.
You can certainly order prints and enlargements from your gallery or directly through me.
If you wish, I also create high-quality photo albums. Printed in France on premium thick photo paper, the lay-flat album is perfect for preserving your memories over time.
Once the photos are ready, they will be delivered through a private and secure online gallery, which you can find under the “Client Gallery” tab.
Accessed with a confidential accont sent to you via email, you’ll be able to view all the photos available. You can choose the ones you want to download in HD or web format. For additional photos, simply add them to your cart and pay the extra fee.
Awarded Pregnancy/Newborn photographer in Provence
I have chosen to participate in international family photography competitions to challenge myself and deliver my best work for my clients.
I view these awards and recognitions as additional validation of the dedication and quality I bring to each couple and family, striving to capture more emotion, narrative, tenderness, uniqueness, and those small, endearing moments.
My inspiration comes from your story, and each couple and family motivates me to push further in creating high-quality images, ensuring a five-star service for your photo sessions.
International Contests : "FPJA" et "LPA"
I am proud to have reached the TOP 100 worldwide in my first year of participating in the Family Photojournalist Association and Lifestyle Photojournalist Association competitions. Even more gratifying is being recognized as the best family photographer in Var by the LPJA ranking.
While I wouldn’t claim to be the absolute best photographer in Var, the title is reassuring as it reinforces my professional credibility and helps combat any imposter syndrome I might feel.
Ultimately, beyond being named the best family photographer in Var by the FPJA, what truly matters is being the best family photographer for my clients and their loved ones, ensuring that I provide the highest level of experience and photographic quality for their cherished memories.
