Choosing what to wear for maternity photos can feel overwhelming — especially when your body is changing and you’re navigating Vancouver’s unpredictable weather. As a Vancouver maternity photographer, I see firsthand how the right clothing choices can make a session feel relaxed, natural, and true to who you are. My goal is always the same: […]
Documentary-Style Maternity Photography in Vancouver // Vancouver maternity photography Some sessions feel less like a photoshoot and more like stepping into a quiet chapter of someone’s life — one they’ll look back on years from now with full hearts. My morning with Annette and David was exactly that. We began in their cozy apartment, the […]
Vancouver In-Studio Maternity Photography Session // Vancouver Maternity Photographer Rebeka, eight months into carrying her baby boy. She wanted to honour her body — in all its growth, strength, softness, and change. No hiding. No holding back. Just truth, beauty, and presence.

Vancouver Indoor Maternity Session // Family photos by Lorenza Tessari Photography Courtney at 37 Weeks, Just Days Away from Meeting Her Baby Girl There’s a unique kind of wonder in documenting someone on the brink of motherhood.

BEHIND THE LENS
ABOUT LORENZA
I am a family, newborn and maternity photographer in Vancouver, BC where I live with my wife Ilenia and our two-year old daughter, Amelie.
I grew up in Italy, where some of my happiest memories were spent flipping through old photo albums with my grandmother and my mum.
I’d get lost in those images. Even then, I understood that these photos weren’t just pictures. They were time machines. They held feelings that might have otherwise faded.
Photography has always been that for me:
a way to hold on.
to return.
to remember what really matters.
I began with a disposable camera and a quiet desire to document everything around me. Over time, that love deepened, and in 2023, when I became a mother myself, it changed everything.
Suddenly, the everyday moments became precious. I understood how uncomfortable it can feel to rush a session, to ask children to perform, to chase something that doesn’t feel true.
That experience shaped the way I work today — calmly, slowly, and with deep respect for your family as you are.
LET'S mAKE
TOGETHER
Something Beautiful
If this way of working resonates with you,
I’d love to hear about your family and this season you’re in.
