I'm Lana, a professional photographer based in Tahiti. I have the immense pleasure of sharing with you my complete guide to pregnancy photography in Polynesia. With over 7 years of experience in Polynesia, I know how to accompany you to take unique and authentic photos of your pregnancy on the islands of Tahiti, Moorea, and Bora Bora. In this guide, I will show you how to choose the best spots, how to prepare for your session, and how to connect with you to take photos that will always remind you of this magical moment.
My Favorite Spots in Tahiti for a Pregnancy Photo Shoot
When I photograph pregnancy in Polynesia, I have the chance to choose superb spots in Tahiti. Here are my favorites for an unforgettable session: Papenoo beach, Punaauia bay, and Papeete market.
Papenoo Beach: My Favorite Spot for the Beach
I fell in love with this black sand beach, nestled between green cliffs. The atmosphere is calm and natural, ideal for relaxed poses and cuddles with your baby. We can enjoy the turquoise sea and the sun setting behind the mountains. It's exactly the kind of place where I let you be yourself and where I capture you in natural poses.
Punaauia Bay: A Spot for Grandiose Landscapes
Punaauia Bay is an incredible photo spot. With rocky cliffs, white sand beaches, and grandiose landscapes, we can create stunning images. I'll even tell you that I've often seen couples take romantic shots facing the sea. It's an ideal spot for a couple or pregnancy session.
Papeete Market: A Spot for Intimate Moments
Papeete market is a spot that is dear to me. I often see couples who accompany me take intimate moments, cuddles, and tender poses with their baby. It's a place where we can be ourselves and share unforgettable moments. And if you want to add a touch of local culture, I'll be happy to introduce you to the fresh fruit and vegetable stalls, flowers, and fragrances of Polynesia.
That's exactly why I accompany my clients from start to finish, I want you to be able to live this moment with me, without stress or worries. Book your session on lanaphoto.art and we'll create unforgettable memories together.
How I Photograph Pregnancy in Polynesia
I photograph pregnancy in Polynesia with passion and compassion. Each woman I accompany is unique, and I want to capture her essence and love for her baby. From my experience, the best pregnancy photos are those that are spontaneous, authentic, and captured in a natural setting.
I often travel to Tahiti, Moorea, and Bora Bora to capture the most special moments of pregnancy. I know the places, seasons, and hotels in these destinations well, which allows me to plan sessions in an optimal way to get unforgettable photos.
Location Selection I prefer natural spots, such as the black sand beaches of Papenoo or Papara in Tahiti, or the bays of Cook and Opunohu in Moorea. These places offer magnificent natural settings for pregnancy photos. I can also organize sessions in 4 and 5-star hotels in Tahiti and Moorea, such as the InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa or the Moorea Pearl Resort.
Moment of Pregnancy I recommend doing a pregnancy session between the 6th and 8th months. At this time, women are often more comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. I can also work with women who are further along in their pregnancy, but this requires more careful planning to avoid moments when they feel unwell.
Photography Style I specialize in natural documentary photography, which emphasizes capturing real and authentic moments. I don't use posing or artificial lighting. Instead, I work with natural light to create photos that seem real and natural. I can also incorporate thematic and personalization elements into the sessions to make them even more unique and meaningful.
That's exactly what I include in my Gold formula, but with a little more detail and personal attention.

The Course of a Pregnancy Photo Shoot with Me
When I photograph pregnancy, I want you to feel at ease and for us to capture unforgettable moments together. That's why I'll explain how a pregnancy photo shoot with me works, from preparation to shooting, including post-production.
Preparation
Before starting the session, I ask you to give me some information about your expectations and desires. What are the places you like? What elements would you like to include in your photos? I also offer to visit some spots before choosing the one that suits you best. This will allow you to feel more at ease during the session.
I'm based in Tahiti, so I really know the spots on the island, like Papenoo beach or the Tahiti lagoon resort, and I can recommend the best ones for each season. I even accompany you beyond the session to help you choose the best location for your photo.
Shooting
When we're on location, I ask you to relax and feel at ease. I'll take the time to explain how to move, where to sit, etc. to get the best poses and results. I work in partnership with local models who know how to pose and stand during the photos.
I'm very attentive during the shoot, because I want to show you the best of yourself. I work with natural light, which means we'll take advantage of the morning or afternoon light, depending on the season. This gives us a warm and natural tone in the photos.
Post-Production
After the session, I'll work on your photos to give you a complete album and photos ready to be shared. I remove natural skin or hair imperfections and make the colors more vivid to give you an album that will please you. I don't do excessive retouching, because I want the photos to remain natural and authentic.
The post-production takes a few days, because I want each photo to be perfectly perfect. I offer you access to a private gallery where you can download your photos, ready to be shared on your social networks or sent to your loved ones.
That's exactly what I include in my Diamond formula for pregnancy, which gives you a high-resolution private gallery of your photos, ready to be shared.
The Best Moments to Have a Pregnancy Photo Shoot in Polynesia
When I accompany my clients during this stage, they're often looking for unique moments to immortalize their pregnancy. From my experience, the months from late summer to early fall in Tahiti are ideal for a photo shoot. The days are mild, with temperatures between 22 and 28 degrees, which allows for comfortable and enjoyable photo sessions.
At the Heart of Motherhood
If you're between the 6th and 8th months of pregnancy, it's the perfect time for a photo shoot. The breasts swell, the belly rounds out, and the skin takes on a golden glow. It's essential to choose comfortable and fitted clothing to highlight your pregnant beauty.
I'm often asked to photograph expectant mothers on Papenoo beach in Tahiti. The view of the sea, palm trees, and volcanic eruptions in the background create a unique and natural landscape.
Approaching Childbirth
Some mothers prefer to wait for the birth of their baby to have a photo shoot, while others choose to do it just before or after childbirth. It's a moving and special moment that should be captured. I understand the importance of preserving these memories forever.
In my Gold formula, the course of a pregnancy photo shoot includes a pre-session appointment to discuss your expectations, an outdoor or indoor photo shoot, and a private online gallery with all the photos. That's exactly what I include in my Gold formula to accompany you at every stage of your pregnancy.

How to Prepare Your Pregnancy Photo Shoot in Polynesia
When I accompany my clients in pregnancy in Tahiti, I often see excitement mixed with apprehension. It's normal! A photo shoot is a precious moment, and you want to make a good impression. I understand, because I, Lana Osheko, pregnancy photographer in Tahiti, have seen many couples go through this experience.
Here are my tips for preparing your pregnancy photo shoot in Polynesia and getting unique and authentic photos:
1. Plan Your Session in High Season
To benefit from ideal lighting and unforgettable landscapes, book your session between May and September, when temperatures are milder and sunshine hours are longer. It's the time of the Tahitian winter, where the climate is cooler and clouds are less frequent.
2. Choose Comfortable and Harmonious Outfits
For a successful photo shoot, choose outfits that make you feel at ease and that harmonize with the environment. Avoid bright colors or complex patterns, as they can distract from your beautiful features and pregnant silhouette.
3. Take Care of Your Skin
Healthy and hydrated skin is essential for getting photos that showcase you. Use products that suit your skin type and avoid products that could make it dry or irritable.
4. Book a Session at Sunset
Sunset is one of the best times for a photo shoot in Polynesia. The light intensity is softer, and the colors become more vivid and moving. It's an opportunity to get photos that will make you smile and remind you of these magical moments.
5. Let Your Pregnancy Glow
The moment of pregnancy when you can really feel your baby's presence is often during the last months. It's essential to choose a session that highlights your beautiful silhouette and positive energy. When you're pregnant, you have the chance to feel more alive and connected to your baby.
That's exactly why I accompany you from start to finish during your session, to help you feel at ease and express yourself in your photos.
