Pregnancy pic suggestions wanted

MommaTracey · March 2012

I have a friend who wants to add pregnancy pics to his portfolio so he has offered to do a free shoot of me and belly with some possible pics that include DH. He has never done one of these types of shoots before. Any suggestions on what I/we should/should not wear? Make-up, hair styling, etc??

for hair/make up, keep it natural and nothing out of the ordinary that what you usually do. you want to remember your preg photos and have your kids see you as you, not a made up version. for clothes, if you are doing a naked bump, id wear jeans or a nice pants and a pretty sports bra. if you are wearing a shirt, then id keep it simple, like a plain black or white blouse where you can easily see the bump.

I did silhouette photos of my bump during sunset inside and some outside. They came out pretty good and are some of my favs! I wanted to do photos around town where hubby and I frequent (like an ice cream shop, a park, etc.) but just didn't get around to it! Have fun!!!!

DH and I had soooooo much fun with our maternity photos! Def keep your make up simple, I just left my hair down, cause thats waht I normally do anyway. Think of some good pic ideas too!! I did some with a cute lacey strapless bra and panties (you gotta be proud of the bump!!), DH and I did some fun ones where our bellies are touching, and where we both made hearts with our hands on our bellys lol. you just gotta have fun. I took booties and put them on my belly, and I also took an ultrasound pic with me and did a black and white pic holding the ultrasound pic up to my belly and its just my belly in the photo. You will have so much fun!
