Specialist in maternity photos in Retiro. Carol Renaux captures motherhood with emotive, natural images in intimate at-home sessions or gentle outdoor sunset shoots, creating memories to cherish.
I’m Carol Renaux, a photographer specializing in maternity photography based in Retiro (Madrid). My work with expectant mothers starts from a simple conviction: maternity photos are not just pretty pictures, they are small time capsules that let you feel again how that waiting was experienced. For that reason my approach to maternity photography is emotional, natural, and respectful. My style: simple, minimalist images made with natural light. I prefer to work in intimate settings —your home— or outdoors at sunset, places where light and calm help foster connection. I avoid unnecessary props; I’m interested in capturing authenticity: the curve of the belly, the looks exchanged between partners, the knowing gestures, the quiet moments full of meaning. I work with a close but discreet presence, leaving space for you to be yourself in front of the camera. How I work: we begin with a relaxed conversation to get to know each other, discuss what you’d like, and choose the best location for the session. The goal is for you to feel comfortable and cared for throughout the experience. During the session I observe and photograph what happens naturally; I only offer small directions when they help create the image we’re looking for. My priority is that the session is an enjoyable moment —a pause to appreciate the wait and the bond with those who accompany you. Why choose my maternity sessions in Retiro: beyond aesthetic sensitivity, I bring formal training and practical experience in portrait and maternity photography, always combined with a warm, professional manner. I live in Madrid and I am happy to travel when needed to document your moment. I deliver the selected and carefully edited images so you can keep that memory with the quality it deserves. If you’re looking for a maternity photographer in Retiro who blends sensitivity, technique, and respect for the intimacy of motherhood, I would be delighted to meet you and tell your story in images.
