Pregnancy Picture ideas...input please!!

[AustinMom]

Ok, last pregnancy, we took the cute, hubby and belly shots, and all the elegant ones, this time, I want it to be a little more fun, so I need ideas!!!

One I can think of is painting my belly yellow and green stripped and holding a watermelon on each hip.

We take pictures in two weeks so I have time to come up with some ideas!

That's a cute idea! We're going to do some classy ones and also some cute, silly ones. I'll be watching this thread for ideas, too! I don't think I can be of help since I need ideas, too, but this is what we have so far:

DW wears sunglasses 24 hours a day because of severe light sensitivity caused by a medical condition and she's self-conscious about it in pictures, so we're going to do some shots where I'll have sunglasses on too and we'll attach litttle baby sunglasses to my belly so we all match.

We're big Mickey Mouse fans so we're going to all wear Mickey ears and put a pair at the top of my belly.

I saw a super cute belly pic I wish I could do, they painted her belly like a scrabble board and stuck scrabble pieces on it like they were playing a game but they all were about baby! like her name, gender... words like love, etc.

We did this one as an action shot for ThinkGeek.com as an action shot for their t-shirt. Very appropriate for DH and I as we are huge geeks.

Including the big sibling in some is a good idea. Usually when I need inspiration for work I just google image search things. for this I would probably search maternity photography.

I've thought of some more....

line up different size balls in order of size (like tennis ball, bouncy ball, bigger bouncy ball, birth ball) and sit in the middle of them where my belly fits

paint a road on my stomach and have 2 YO son play with cars on it

spell out baby's name with letter blocks

paint a henna tattoo of leaves, etc and take pictures in our local botanical gardens

have son paint hand prints on belly

Son holding his big bouncy ball (like 2 feet in diameter) up against my belly.

I love the idea of including our dog! She's the beginning of this family!

when i was 8 mo pg with dd, i was in sil's wedding. her uncle took a pic with this huge window behind me, and the way the curtains draped, it looked like an u/s screen. when he had it printed, he did it so that it is just a silhouette, and it ooks amazing! that one is framed in dd's room. then we had some takenof dd with "the belly" when i was pg with ds, and one of those is framed in his room. we'll take some of both kids with the belly this time, so that this baby has one as well
