  • I think some of them come out well but I don't think I'd do them. It's not like I'd advertise them to the general public like newborn pics. Plus I doubt it would be attractive with the amount of stretch marks I'm sure I'll have...even with retouching. Lol
  • Those look nice but I would not do them.  I agree, who would you show them to...??
    Umm. No. I don't think I'll be doing that. I mean, who would you even show them too?

  • Thought about doing some for my husband but.... I am not a small girl so no lol those are super cute tho!
  • I'm not completely against this if I had the funds. A lot of women have done these and done them tastefully. If I did them they would definitely be visuals in my home and that's about it.
  • I would get them done for my boyfriend, but the pictures I showed on my post & the others I was looking at didn't really show anything and I don't really find them like inappropriate or racy, so I wouldn't mind showing other people. I mean I don't consider myself modest but I wouldn't just go show my naked body to everyone; that being said I also believe that getting professional pictures done of the female body is more like art. That's just my opinion though! :)
  • I love and I hate maternity pictures. Some women have beautiful bodies even during their pregnancies, with the perfect bumps. And I love seeing their pictures, and the miracle that is behind their bumps being shown in creative and artistic ways. I, however, am not one of those lucky ladies. Therefore, I have decided I wouldn't be taking any maternity photos. I would rather have a nice newborn photo shoot or just take a lot of pictures of my new baby instead. Nobody wants to see my "bump", they want to see the baby!

    I love pictures like this and I would love to do them for myself and my bf I think that a woman looks beautiful when shes pregnant. I would probably just have them expose in the privacy of our bedroom I think it would be weird to show to other people specially if im naked. But I feel that if your comfortable with your body go ahead and do it there is nothing wrong with that.
  • I major in photography so something like the silhouette shot I believe is really nice just to have. But I wouldn't go through the trouble of doing them just because, I mean, I have no idea who would want them. Lol

  • I like maternity photos and would consider getting professional maternity pics done with this LO (didn't do it last time), but not nude. Bare belly is one thing, bare everything is something else I have no desire for.

  • I wouldn't do nude maternity photos. Just not my thing

    I have done a boudoir shoot, and I've also shot 7 or 8 of them (I do photography on the side), and those can be super cute if tastefully done. Of course I didn't share my boudoir photos on FB or anything, they were for my DH, but there were multiple girls that got a boudoir shoot with me that DID share on fb. So go them. They've got more guts than I.

    Again though...that was a different shoot, and was not maternity.

    I had pics done with my last pregnancy, but they weren't nude. I had like a black cami on and black palazzo pants. My husband at the time and kids wore a black shirt and jeans. They were more family oriented and wasn't something I gave out to other people. Just wanted to have something nice to remember the pregnancy by. Have one of the kids giving my belly a kiss and I still have that one framed on a wall in my house.

  • A photographer friend of mine did some amazing pics similar to those. I am not a fan of maternity photos in general but thought it would be nice to have and something to look back on. Nothing I shared with the world.
  • I did nude pregnancy photos for my first pregnancy and I love them.... They were only a silhouette of my body and I was covering my breasts and you couldn't see any private parts but I took the pictures for myself and my husband to remember that moment in our lives, I didn't send them to anyone else or anything. They are some of my favorite pictures I've ever had done. And I had my mother take them in my bedroom with my iPhone and they turned out looking professional! ----- so obviously, I see nothing wrong with them if they are tasteful and emphasize on the pregnancy and the amazing transformation we go through carrying our babies! I say go for it and you can keep them as memories for yourself!
  • I would never do a full on nude shoot but I think it's nice to have a few taken within your pictures. I like the one that are silhouettes (like a shadow). To me being a mom and wife maybe it's not appropriate to have a naked photo shoot. But that is my opinion for myself.
  • I'm not into the full nudie shoot, but bare belly I'll do. It bugs me that my mom does not have a single photo of herself when she was preggo with me or my brother. I want to have something to look back on for me and my kids.

  • I'm definitely doing this if I don't get too many stretch marks. I think it's a beautiful work of art and something I'd love to remember. I'd post them on my art sites and hang one in our bedroom. As long as they're done tastefully I think they're awesome.

    Here are a couple more of the shots Id like to get! I found a really good photographer & I'm super excited! I just think they're so beautiful. I'll also hang up a couple of my favs in me & my bf's bedroom. I'd also love to get one with bare belly & my bf kissing my belly!
  • Sure, but don't share them. My cousin sent everyone her nude pics and I was weirded out. I was even more weirded out by the fact that she sent it to my mom and dad as well.

  • I feel like if you're comfortable with your body and want to celebrate how amazing it is that we can create another human being inside of us and you want to remember it then you should go for it. Obviously it's not for everyone but if it's done tastefully they can be gorgeous photos.
  • I don't get why people try to sexualize pregnancy.

    It's not sexualizing it. It's enjoying the beauty of your body and the pregnancy. Just because it's naked doesn't mean it's sexual. Plus some feel very sexy while preggo so why not rock it.
    Let's not forget how the babies got there after all :wink: lol xx
  • Ok since I saw this a couple of days ago I've looked into having pics done, lucky I have a few good friends who are fab photographers. But I googled naked pregnancy pics and got the shock of my life!!!! O.0 those are not what I want to do haha nice and classy is what I'm looking to have done :)

    Oh my eyes!!! Why did I just google that as well?! It's not like I typed "pregnancy porn!!"

  • Bleach and lots of it haha
  • Should have taken your warning but I got curious and googled too! My damn is all I can say.
  • I googled it too, but I pretty much expected what I saw. I'm pretty desensitized to porn, so meh.

    Pregnancy porn is surprisingly popular, but I've never understood it.

    I can understand finding your pregnant SO sexy as hell, but jerking it to some woman pregnant with another man's baby?

    I always thought that was weird.
