Maternity, Newborn & Family Photography in the Galilee
Fine art portraits in deep, natural light. Natural, true-to-life editing with no heavy filters and no fake skies. Just you, as you are.
There are seasons of life we wish we could hold onto forever
The anticipation before meeting your baby. The tiny details of a newborn. The way your children still fit into your arms.
My portrait sessions are created to preserve those chapters. From planning and styling to lighting, gentle direction and careful hand-retouching, every detail is considered so your photographs feel both artful and unmistakably yours.
These are more than images for today. They are pieces of your family's story, made to be held onto for generations.

Hi, I'm Aliza
After six years photographing families in New York, I moved to the Galilee and fell in love all over again with the light, the landscapes and the way families here spend time together outdoors. I photograph families the way I'd want you to remember yourselves: real, innocent and a little playful.
My approach is gentle and calm. I'll guide you through the whole session while leaving plenty of room for the real moments: the laughter, the hugs, and the child who simply won't sit still. My editing is natural and true to life.
When I'm not photographing families, you'll find me chasing sunsets across the Galilee.

Questions
Where do sessions take place?
Family sessions happen outdoors, at a Galilee location we choose together. Maternity and newborn sessions will take place in the Kfar Vradim studio, opening January 1, 2027.
When is the best time to photograph?
Family sessions at golden hour, about an hour before sunset. Maternity sessions between 28 and 34 weeks. Newborn sessions in the first days of life, so it's best to book during your pregnancy.
We don't know how to pose. Is that okay?
Completely. I guide you through the whole session, so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands. Kids don't need to cooperate the whole time; some of the best photographs come from the spontaneous moments.
When will we get our photos?
Your private online gallery arrives within two to three weeks, hand-retouched and ready to download and share.
What languages do you speak?
English and Hebrew. I'm a native English speaker, and sessions run in whichever language is easier for your family.
