Maud Rochais

I’m Maud Rochais, a pregnancy photographer based in Villenave-d’Ornon, near Bordeaux. I specialize in maternity photography: highlighting the changing beauty of the body, capturing tender looks and creating images you will cherish for years. As a specialist, I place great importance on kindness, comfort and natural, flattering presentation of the expectant mother. My approach is both technical and warm. Each session begins with a conversation to understand your wishes — photo style, outfits, locations and any people to include (partner, children). In my studio I offer a welcoming, heated space with a selection of dresses, veils and accessories chosen to flatter the silhouette. If you prefer the outdoors, we select together a location that reflects you, close to Villenave-d’Ornon and Bordeaux. I bring my experience and training (Empara, Regard d’auteur and practical workshops on maternity and newborn posing) to ensure your comfort: careful posing, crafted lighting and subtle retouching for a timeless result. For some packages I recommend professional makeup to achieve a striking yet natural look. I also support pregnancy Time-Lapse projects (one photo per month for a final montage), ideal if you want to document the growth of your belly. Beyond the session itself, I guide you so your images can live in your home: high-quality prints, albums, presentation boxes and other keepsake options are available so your memories aren’t only digital. My goal is to offer a complete, calm and memorable experience where every detail is designed to celebrate your maternity. If you are expecting and would like a respectful, professional session, contact me via the form or by email. I listen to your desires and build a session with you that reflects who you are, here in Villenave-d’Ornon, close to Bordeaux. See you soon, Maud.
