Arnaud Desrue Photography

In Oullins, Arnaud Desrue has specialized in maternity photography to offer expectant mothers images filled with emotion and tenderness. His practice of “photography that sees” stems from a unique personal journey: having been without sight in one eye since childhood, Arnaud found in the camera a way to look at the world differently. That story now informs his sensitive eye and his ability to capture the details that make each pregnancy unique. His approach focuses as much on the experience as on the final image. For Arnaud, creating a beautiful experience during a photoshoot is just as important as the photograph itself. He favors personalized sessions — in studio or outdoors — and notably offers bespoke walks to accompany the mother in a setting where she feels free and at ease. The aim is to create natural images that tell a story, from the baby bump to tender gestures, respecting each client’s pace and wishes. Arnaud’s work is grounded in kindness and trust. He creates a calm, welcoming atmosphere so that even the most reserved clients can relax. Through gentle direction and prior conversations, he highlights silhouette and emotion without artifice. His sensitivity to light and composition allows him to enhance skin, shapes and moments of connection, producing timeless portraits designed to last. Maternity and newborn photography, portraits of pregnant women, baby bump images — each session is conceived as a capsule of memory. Arnaud places great importance on legacy: offering photos that awaken emotional memory and let you relive these moments long after. Based in Oullins and active across Lyon and the surrounding area, he supports families with professionalism and warmth. If you are looking for a maternity photographer in Oullins who combines sensitivity, attentive listening and technical skill, Arnaud Desrue offers a tailored approach to immortalize this life stage with authenticity and care.
