Will you be doing maternity pics?

If you are, any particular poses you would do?

I'm not sure I would, but probably because I don't think it would be flattering, but maybe certain shots may be okay ...

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

I never really thought about it... My sister is a photographer so I will probably do some candids or something. I am not a big fan of posing I like in the moment pictures.

Although I am unsure of how I will feel about my looks later on in my pregnancy, I would like to do them. Maybe not as "formal" with specific poses, ideally somewhere outside if possible.

I'm feeling self conscious about my size already, so in a few months I don't foresee me doing bare belly pics, but I LOVE pictures and would like to have some nice ones to remember my first pregnancy.

DH takes lots of pic of me. I'm not doing formal pics, it's just not me.

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

I want to but I think i'd rather have newborn pics done so I'm not sure we can afford both things now. I personally love them though.

I would love to but I don't want to spend money on professional pics. I'd rather splurge on baby pictures.

YES! I took my own for DD and DS and now I want to really get nice ones, so I'm booked for a shoot with September Blue in January! I'm so excited!!! Chat Icon

And I think I'm going to ask her to do some sexy lingerie ones. No joke. DH LOVES when I'm pregnant so I think i'll give him a few of those as a surprise Chat Icon

I didn't with my first pregnancy (except for belly shots at home) but I want to with this one.

I just really want a cute one of us as a family and one of my firstborn touching/kissing my belly.

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

I decided not to because I really don't like the way I look in pictures whilst pregnant. My face turned square, and I just look huge. I decided to put the money towards the infant pictures instead. I have plenty of candid pictures of me pregnant, and I know I am not going to regret this decision.

I do love to look at other peoples pictures.

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

I am going to wait and see how I feel later on in the pregnancy. With DS I BLEW UP omg my face was beyond fat and I barely had a belly until like the day before he was due. I'm hoping that maybe I'll look better this time around because I would loove to do them with DH and DS!

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

I didn't do them with DS, but I am doing them this time in a few weeks. I'm really excited for it- maybe because this will, in all liklihood, be my last pregnancy.

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

If I was skinny and had a nice bump, maybe.

But I don't so you couldn't pay to get them done. I really like all the ones I see, but honestly even if I was a cute preggo I have no idea what I would do with the pics!

That's how DH feels about them. I will probably display one, maybe two in my house, but for some reason, I still really want to do it.

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

no first time around I had these bleeding stretch marks.

this time around, I have some c-section skin that is hanging around and hasn't filled out yet. it makes me sick, so I def would not want a pic of it.

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

no really not my thing plus with a bruised belly from the lovenox shots i would certainly not be doing any bare belly shots,

i have a friend who hated the way she looked pregnant and there are literally only about 5 pictures of her pregnant and they are from her shower

Re: Will you be doing maternity pics?

This just isnt' for me.

I already know I am going to be VERY uncomfortable with the way my body will change and to be honest- I really dont' even want to look at myself in the mirror- much less have pictures taken.
