Bare your belly, strike a pose, and create a keepsake. Need a little inspiration?
Check out these copy-worthy photographs.

Family fun
A pregnancy shoot doesn’t have to be a solo mission. You may want to include your entire family. Their presence will guarantee a more spontaneous and fun mood -- the key to great pics!

Not exactly nudey
Pull out all the stops to create a photo that oozes old-school glamour. Drape fabric over your body strategically to reveal only the parts you want to highlight (think Grecian goddess).

Artsy meets playful
Bring a few personal items to the shoot (like toys from the nursery) to use as props. It’s a great way to inject a bit of your personality into each frame, and your photos will be completely unique.
