 Topic: Professional belly shots??
Posted: 05 December 2008 at 4:34pm |
A nosy question...
Just wondering who has had these done?? What inspired you to do it and when is a good time? Did you display them or put them in an album just for you??
Some friends of ours are professional photographers and are very keen to take photos when I'm about 7 months. I have seen belly shots that I think are gorgeous but am a little bit apprehensive. I love looking at the belly shots in the belly pics thread so don't know why I'm a little unsure. I bet if I did I wouldn't regret it  and I wonder if I would regret not getting them done if I don't.

Well, ....if you dont get them done, you will never have the choice of displaying them or not , if you do, you can either display them , or if you dont like them hide them so noone ever sees them , so my personal opinion ? do it !
this is an exciting time , i wish I had more pics with C (when she was in my belly i mean) and i especially wish Id gotten professional shots , besidesssss, ive seen your FB photos, your a hot mama, your pics will be gorgeous

I had them done at about 35 weeks pregnant. I got some done fully clothed, some with a see through material wrapped around me and some fully naked. I am so pleased I got them done and I look at them often!
We are yet to do anything with them but our intentions are to put them on cavas and hang them up in our bedroom. DH is a printer so can put them on canvas for me, thats part of the reason I am STILL waiting for them to be done!!!
I have shown a few select friends the pics though!
I think you should go for it, you won't regret it!

I say go for it. I got them done at around 33 weeks which is apparently quite a good time (before the baby starts to move down). I haven't done anything with the pics yet either, but plan on framing some for our bedroom. Too shy to put them on display!

I got some down when I was preggy with Noah and Lola, there were done when I was fully naked but you can't see anything below my waist, we have them blowen up and on display in our lounge, I don't care who sees them as I think preggy woman are beautiful and at the end of the day they are only boobs

I had them done.
I got a free sitting at the portrailt place when I was around 34 weeks, and my MIL is a photographer so she took some of me at like 26 weeks pregnant.
I was actually looking at mine tonight lol

I got mine done at 30 weeks (before the stretch marks) I loved them. I got mine done through Momentz Photography, I have to buy a photo album and get them printed off just for me and DH.
There are a few we have decided to put on the wall just finding the right one to put on the wall is hard.

I got some done at 40weeks at pixifoto. They are ok and one was free....if Ihad been more organised and wasnt feeling like sh*t that day (developed flu that night) I would have paid more attention to the first photo (the free one..which isnt that nice) and then I wouldnt have to pay for the better ones.
