Maternity Photographer in Arlington Heights, IL Heartwritten Maternity Photography
Welcome! I’m Alice, a professional dedicated Maternity and Newborn photographer based in Arlington Heights.
Capturing the glow of motherhood, the love between parents-to-be, and those precious moments before your baby arrives – that’s what I truly love.
From the gentle touch on your growing belly to the way your eyes light up with excitement I create artistic and emotional maternity pictures that celebrate your journey into motherhood.
Every maternity photo session I photograph is designed to help you feel confident, beautiful, and completely yourself. Whether you prefer an elegant in-studio maternity shoot or a romantic outdoor sunset session, I’ll make sure you feel comfortable and radiant every step of the way.
My goal? To create timeless images that you’ll be cheering for a lifetime – photos that reflect the beauty, emotion, and anticipation of this special time.
My clients call me a magic person – a baby whisperer. I love reading their feedback after the session, when they often say that I’m the most patient person who takes time to listen to mama and make sure her session turns out the way she imagined. They always hope for the best but many times feel nervous before we meet – and then, once they are in front of the camera with me and my team, they feel fabulous and relaxed. They realized that they are working with an amazing photographer who makes them happy for the entire session, no matter what, so all they have to do is enjoy and wait for their beautiful memories.
“Because pregnancy is such a beautiful chapter – let’s capture the magic of motherhood together.”
Alice - Maternity Photographer Who Understands Your World
Hi, I’m Alice — a professional maternity and baby photographer serving the Arlington Heights and greater Chicagoland area. I’m also a mom of three amazing girls — Lilly, Emma, and Zoe — who remind me every day how fast time flies and how priceless every captured moment is.
Photography is not just my work — it’s my heart. I’ve spent over ten years capturing families, moms-to-be, and newborns with care, patience, and artistry. My maternity sessions are all about connection, light, and storytelling.
Why I’m a photographer
With my experience (and a few “photographer for maternity shoot” secrets), I guide you through every pose so you can feel comfortable, confident, and natural. Every pregnancy is different – and your photos should reflect that.
Traveling back in time through moments is my greatest dedication.
