2nd Trimester

Maternity Pictures

I'm having some done tomorrow. I know I'm still early but I've actually been showing since 6 weeks and the photographer is doing them for free. We're moving in about 2 weeks too. I was just wondering who had them done and if y'all could give me ideas. :)

Re: Maternity Pictures

  • I started a pinterest board with maternity pictures I liked. I'm just planning on having my mom take them and wanted to have pictures to go off of. Good luck!

    Pinterest is the devil to photographers


    If she is doing them for free and she is an actual photographer than you really shouldn't put in too many demands. She is doing it for you not the other way so you should let her use her artistic ability to her best advantage. You will get better results this way since normally one would hire her for her style.

    This. Except I am a photographer and I love going to Pinterest for inspiration. Unfortunately, most of the photos are from staged shoots and are set up in prime locations with prime conditions and prime lighting, making them difficult to reproduce. SO - look on Pinterest for posing ideas, but don't get your hopes up.

    @bmwaters21‌21 Haha actually me too and ironically I shoot newborns mainly

    But there is a difference in getting "inspiration" and someone giving you a bunch of links and thinking you can or will recreate them bc exactly like you said about them being prime setups.
