Studio Hřivnacký

As specialists in maternity photography in Ostrava, we approach portraits of expectant mothers with respect, sensitivity and a great deal of empathy. We are Barbora and Petr Hřivnacký, a married couple whose studio was born from the desire to capture moments of lasting value — your pregnancy deserves an authentic and tender treatment. Why choose us? Because we focus on natural, soulful images that never feel artificial. In our maternity photography we combine gentle studio lighting, sensitive composition and unforced moments that highlight the beauty and personality of each woman. Our experience in family and portrait photography helps us create an atmosphere in which you feel safe and relaxed — and that comfort shows in the photographs. How we work: before the session we have a short conversation about your wishes and preferred style — do you prefer intimate studio portraits or looser outdoor shots in nature? We adapt the location to suit you. On set we foster a friendly, relaxed atmosphere while also paying attention to detailed posing and the small touches that make the images unique. We recommend soft clothing tones without bold prints — and we are happy to advise you on wardrobe choices in advance. After the shoot you will receive previews usually within 48 hours so you can choose your favorite images. The final retouched photographs are delivered within the agreed timeframe and in the authorial style showcased in our portfolio. We photograph both in the studio and on location around Ostrava — always with consideration for the comfort and safety of the mother. Our work is driven by a passion for capturing authentic emotion — whether it’s a tender hand resting on the belly, a gaze full of anticipation, or the mutual tenderness of a couple. Studio Hřivnacký is a maternity photographer in Ostrava who photographs with heart, attention to detail and respect for the most important moments in your life. For bookings, questions or a pre-session consultation, please contact us — we look forward to creating lasting memories with you.
