I love the colors you wore! I'm so upset .. I took off my rings to lotion my legs and forgot to put them back on for the pictures! There was so much happening
I would actually really like to do a maternity photo shoot - I think everyone else's always look so great! But DH doesn't "get it" and I've had no success in getting him to play along. He doesn't understand how it differs from the belly pic we take on Sunday nights - the one where I'm in pajamas, probably unshowered and wearing no make up, lol
@rastrau and he would be in them with you! That's the big reason to do them for me. I can put on clothes and makeup and DH is good at photography, but it would be nice to have family photos instead.
I'm really undecided about these. I think I've taken 2 pictures of myself while pregnant. I'm just not a fan of my body pregnant or not. But I worry I'll regret not doing them. My brother is a great photographer so I might just have him do some shots for me.
I know how you feel! I am sucking it up this time around as I do regret not taking them with DD!
A photographer was looking for pregnant girls for a model shoot and I am taking advantage of it. It's my moms friend from work. She is a very well known photographer in my area so I'm excited. Not excited they will be up at our local hospital where she contracts but as long as I look cute I don't care. Photo shop is great!!
A good friend of mine is going to be taking mine sometime in May, at 34-35 weeks. We are probably going to a state park near by on the lake. I'm thinking very engagement style pictures that happy to have some pictures focused on my belly. Not comfortable with a bare belly, I just don't think mine is cute.

If I do decide I want some I'll probably just set up my tripod and take some myself. I love the pics we had done when I was pregnant with DD but I only have 2 5x7s and 1 4x6 framed and the rest are in DD's baby book. Maternity photos are not something I'd want displayed on a big canvas or something so I don't really want to spend the money on them.
We just got ours back. I had a bit of anxiety over scheduling (photog was super busy and so were we, on top of weather in the Midwest and wanting to take them outdoors) but we finally got it together. We took them at 30 weeks. They came out so nice! Some weren't great but the majority was good! What I can't wait for now is the newborn shoot with my little prince! Come on June 15th!
We just got home from ours. I'm SO excited to see the pics! DH decided last minute that he would come w me, so that made me really happy. We did them outside & I brought two different outfits (top half) at the recommendation of my photographer. I'm super glad I did! Pls we brought a pair of pink lace shoes that I bought for our little lady so I'm anxious to see how everything turned out!

This is a sneak peak. I also did more of my bare belly but she did not get them done yet. She is also pregnant Csection the end of the month LOL
My jack russell was just a ham just like in our wedding pic!!! lol

Had some taken just yesterday! We ended up with a studio session even though I really wanted something outdoors. I absolutely love the pics that you ladies have! This one is my favourite out of the bunch.
Had our rescheduled session yesterday. I don't have any sneak peeks yet but my dh took this one of DS while I was getting individual pictures taken, it was absolutely beautiful out
@satrimm, I just bought it and OMG I love it! You should totally wear it!! It's so flippin' comfortable, I ended up buying the same dress in two other colours/patterns. lol
I tried on so many maxi dresses and they all looked like tents on me so I get the frumpy thing. This one is still kinda tent-y (on me), but it's not as loose and hugs the curves nicely. I still look like a house from the side though. *sigh*
Moral of the story: You should totally wear the dress.
