Questions: Are you planning a maternity photoshoot?
GTKY: Who lives in your house? (Family, pets, etc.) My fiancé and our dog
@mimser I did a maternity shoot at 31 weeks when I was pregnant with my son (2 sample pictures). One that was fully clothes and outside so more of a couple photo shoot with bump accents. We are planning onwe doing a family shoot this go around and making sure to include some bump focused images. I hate being the center of attendance so the bump out and proud photsshoots were not going to be my style but I do have friends who have done them and love them as
@mimser we are going to take the kids to Florida and stay with my dad for spring break first week of April, so we will do some family photos at the beach. I’ve done them for my other kiddos so I feel like I have to again haha. Last pregnancy my friend, who is a photographer, text me and was like “hey... wanna come over and get in my bathtub naked full of milk and flowers??” 😂😂😂 she wanted to start advertising milk bath photos and I really don’t mind that sort of thing so I was like 🤷🏼♀️ Sure! They turned out beautiful. But I was literally 38 weeks and 5 days pregnant. I gave birth two days later.
I think I'm about to schedule a shoot for when I'm like 32 weeks. I want to do it at home and it to be an intimate, cozy feel. The nursery won't be finished yet though. I have a photographer in mind so if she's available I'll pick her brains a little and discuss this.

I really wasn’t planning on doing any sort of maternity pictures. Getting my husband to participate in engagement and wedding pictures was hard enough! 😆 but there is a tulip farm nearby that has a festival every spring and is a great spot for photos—beautiful fields of tulips with Mt Hood in the background. I was thinking DH and I could go with some friends and just do a couple of informal shots there.
