Just saw this on Huffington Post and thought it was worth sharing.  Anyone planning a belly photo shoot?

I am a (VERY) amateur photographer, so I think I'll take some of my own psuedo-professional ones, at most.  I am also an artist's model, and I have a really, really good (and extremely talented) older professional artist friend who has said she really wants to paint/draw me when pregnant.  She is overseas, but wants to get together when she gets back.  If I can even get a good photo of what she paints/draws, I will be beyond thrilled.

hahahaha!  Sooo funny!

I have done pregnancy photos with #1 and #2.  Prob will with this one, too!  Nothing **too creative** though.  lol.

i don't get the one with the skeleton. and the gun and watermelon really made me crack up.

i'll definitely do some photo shoots with DH. not sure if we will go the professional route -- depends on the expense.

I've seen these photos along with some other ones that were equally terrible. I just don't get what the people were thinking, but I suppose they wouldn't care what i think anyways :)

With DD, we took lot's of photos, but those were more to document my growing belly month to month. We also did belly decorating for holidays and then some henna that we took photos of.

I plan on doing pro ones this time around. Something real natural as we don't like pose-y type photos.

I think I am going to get my DH superimposed on my baby belly... naked and sucking his thumb.  WHAT WAS UP WITH THAT ONE?!?!?!

OMG too funny!!! I always try not to be too judgmental but good lord!! LOL. I don't know I always hate pictures of myself but my family and friends get upset because I am always behind the camera and I am kinda sad I never took pictures is DD. I've been participating in the belly thread but don't know if I will have any pictures beyond that. We will have to see.....don't think I will be taking my ques from any of those photos, baaahaaahaaa.
