Monika Lesner-Mączyńska Fotografia

My name is Monika and I take photographs — with a special passion for maternity sessions. As a maternity photographer working mainly in the Pomorskie region from Ustka, I draw inspiration from the sea, the open light and coastal landscapes. I focus on pregnancy photography (sesja brzuszkowa) because it allows me to capture tenderness, anticipation and the intimate bond between an expectant mother (and sometimes her family) and the new life to come. Why choose me for your maternity session? Because this is my specialization — not just one service among many. I prioritise naturalness and light: I love working with ambient light and, when needed, shaping or softening it to create gentle, timeless images. The result is a set of pregnancy photos that feel authentic and lasting rather than staged. Living by the sea, I often photograph on beaches and by coastal scenery, but sessions can also take place at home or in elegant interiors — we choose the location together based on your comfort and aesthetic. How I work with clients: we start with a conversation to discuss expectations, comfort, desired style and the best timing (often between weeks 28–34). On the day of the session I create a calm, friendly atmosphere: I guide gently, suggest poses, and pay attention to your pace and well-being. If you wish, you can include a partner or older children; family moments integrate seamlessly into maternity sessions. My approach is empathetic and attentive — I want every expectant mother to feel beautiful and safe in front of the camera. What you get: photographs that preserve this important life stage — rich in light, detail and emotion. As a maternity specialist in Ustka I oversee the whole process from concept to final images, ensuring the memories are crafted with care. If you’re looking for a photographer who understands pregnancy photography and loves working with light, please get in touch — I’d be happy to talk about your session.
