Maternity Photography Is So Important
You know I have four kids and not one actual nice image of me pregnant! I'm a photographer, I have photographer friends and I am honestly letting you know that the only images I have of me pregnant are ones my husband took, right at the end of each pregnancy - normally as we were preparing to go in to hospital. The only reason I have them is because I wanted to see how big I was!
I look at the images I create for women now and I wish I could go back and do it again. (We won't be, four is our limit!) But like all of these fleeting times, when they are gone, they are gone and you cannot get them back.
I don't care who you are, how swollen you feel or how posing in front of a stranger is probably the last thing you feel like doing, no one has ever regretted capturing these moments.
Do you know, or have you ever stopped to think how amazing your body is? You on your own, are growing a human being. A whole person. Every cell of their being is falling into place because of the safe environment you are providing. I think that is beyond amazing and I think that deserves to be celebrated and remembered in a truly special way.
