A Maternity Photoshoot Gift Voucher in Bordeaux

Portrait & Family

A maternity photoshoot gift voucher is a present many people love to give. Are you looking for a gift for friends, or for your own children, who are expecting a baby? As a maternity photographer in Bordeaux, I invite you to discover my work through the maternity sessions of Maryne and Jérôme, and of Marine and Julien.

A Maternity Photographer in Bordeaux

Ever since I became a photographer, I have loved accompanying families through all the events of their lives, and above all the happiest ones. I photograph maternity sessions regularly, because many of my couples want to capture the mum-to-be’s bump. Family photographer: that is what defines me best.

From portrait sessions to engagement shoots, weddings and christenings, couples like having me with them at every stage, and I love following their adventures. A pregnancy is a wonderful love story between a couple and a little one on the way, and photographing parents-to-be brings me great joy.

Fine Art photography to make your maternity session shine

As a professional photographer in Bordeaux specialising in Fine Art photography, I offer family photos with a distinctive style. Fine Art is a subtle blend of soft, diffused light, the atmosphere of the place, a delicate grain and attention to emotions and gestures. That softness is ideal for maternity photos.

An Outdoor Maternity Photoshoot

A maternity photoshoot in Bordeaux

Bordeaux’s reputation has grown steadily in recent years. It is a very attractive city, much loved for its heritage and its rich wine history, and so popular with visitors from abroad that impromptu photoshoots in the historic centre are a common sight.

Bordeaux is also full of gardens and parks that are perfect for a maternity session. It was at the Parc Bordelais, in the Caudéran district, that I took Maryne and Jérôme for some beautiful photos of happy parents-to-be.

A maternity photoshoot on Arcachon Bay

Would you rather be by the water than in the city? Then let us head to Arcachon Bay! This is where Marine and Julien chose to capture their memories as a family of two (and a half). Arcachon Bay has so many different moods and colours: the Réservoirs de Piraillan, the village of L’Herbe, the Prés Salés nature reserves, the Cap Ferret peninsula, the Pointe aux Chevaux, the ocean beaches of Lège-Cap-Ferret… there is plenty of choice, and the session can be a truly relaxing moment.

What to wear for a maternity photoshoot

No idea what to wear for your maternity session? With my experience of Fine Art photography, I can give you advice: the outfit is not something to overlook for successful Fine Art photos.

For her session at the Parc Bordelais, Maryne wore a saffron-yellow dress that suited her complexion and her hair colour beautifully. You can see how the photos glow with Maryne’s smile, her style, the greenery around her and Jérôme’s tenderness towards her.

A dress is the favourite choice of mums-to-be for a maternity session, because they feel comfortable in it.

Today, maternity clothes are designed to flatter pregnant women and their lovely curves, and loose dresses have become feminine and stylish.

Accessories for a maternity photoshoot

You are free to choose an accessory for your Fine Art maternity session. The other Marine, on Arcachon Bay, chose a bouquet of flowers.

Bouquets are not just for weddings!

The red and orange tones of her bouquet, with a touch of greenery, went beautifully with her white summer dress and showed off her lovely bump.

Reviews of My Maternity Photoshoots

I would like to share three of the many reviews I have received on social media. Not to blow my own trumpet, but because the words of people who have trusted me and stepped in front of my camera might help you decide to book a maternity photoshoot gift voucher in Bordeaux.

Anne-Lise:

"Tristan is an extraordinary person, both personally and professionally. We had a wonderful time as a family, and the result of his work is even more magical than we had hoped. Tristan has a very precious eye and artistic sense. We can’t wait to share another moment in front of his lens. Thank you again for everything, Tristan, you really are a lovely person."

"The best photographer you could find. The person who created a bond between our families, moments of life, wonderful memories. When guests talk to me about my wedding, they also talk about Tristan, for his talent and his good humour. I recommend him a thousand times over. Thank you again for making our day so beautiful."
