 Topic: preggy photos?
Posted: 26 July 2008 at 12:21pm |
A question for you all... is anyone planning on getting any professional preggy photos done before bubs arrives? It's something I've thought of in the back of my mind but I have no idea how to go about getting it done, or who would do a good (and inexpensive!) job of it. Any suggestions?
Oh yeah - I'm in Auckland

I didn't get any professional ones done but I did get DH to take some really good ones. If you have a good camera you just need to look at photos online to get ideas

Hey there - contact Sarah at Momentz Photography....she takes lovely ones, and is very reasonably priced. Quite a few ladies on here have used her....she took some lovely ones of Jess before Max was born. We just had some fantastic family pics done with her too!
Her web page is www.momentz.co.nz

Thanks SimSam! Her website looks gorgeous. Are you able to give me an idea of what should I expect to pay for her maternity portrait package?

I am not sure what they charge for Maternity packages, but our family photos cost us $250, which was very reasonable for the number of photos (and 3 enlargements, and a CD).
Sarah is lovely - just drop her an email or give her a call. Tell her that you had talked to Sam and that I suggested contacting her!

I had some maternity photos done through www.michellewobcke.co.nz. She charged $100 for a sitting fee and she also arranged for someone to do my hair and makeup!
She is awesome, she also did our wedding photography last year!

We used Momentz Photography when Jack was 1yr and I secons Sim Sam, Sarah is lovely and we ended up with some amazing shots. We must have got the package down from Sim Sam as ours was about $125/150 I think
When I was pg DH took a photo of me every 5wks, I didn't think about it till I was about 15wks.

Oh and the other good thing about Momentz is that they give you a CD with all the images on....so you dont have to go through them to get reprints!!

We took some at home with a cheap camera that we were really pleased with - there are a couple on page 19 of the baby belly thread if you want to check them out 
As it says there, we followed advice in a little treasures mag.
