WWYD naked baby photos?
So my Hubby and I got into a little bit of a disagreement last night about our DD's newborn photos. I think it would be cute to do some nude photos of her just in her little pink knitted hat that we got from the NICU, but Hubby seems to think that any nude photos of our LO is the equivalent of child pornography and is vehemently against it, to the point where he was screaming at me saying absolutely not. I also found this awesome little romper that was totally cute and frilly and he said no to that as well saying "I will not have pictures taken of her in less than what I would let her leave the house in!" We settled on a cute little white dress with ruffles and a purple bow sash, but I'm still disappointed.
Anyone else agree with me that nude photos are beautiful if done correctly? Or do you agree with Hubby that no one should be allowed to see her cute wittle naked tushie except the people who change her diaper?
Any suggestions to get my Hubby to come around??

This. And, he was screaming? ......
Ok I shouldn't have used the word screaming, but it did get heated because we are both stressed out and sleep deprived. I'm not upset about the argument between us, just his reasoning behind it.
All I want is a photo like this - is that a crime?

If it is a crime then I belong in jail. As long as you both agree to it, there is nothing wrong with it.
Example
This is what I plan to do this evening. I've been researching all day. I'm hoping that he's just got a bad perception in his head and that he will see that naked photos can be something really beautiful. I guess we will see.

ummmm...seriously?
Call CPS and the Feds, check out my child porn.
::sigh:: I LOVE Miss Maggie's rolls.
Agreed. I think it's more important that if one of you aren't comfortable with it, that you don't do it. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but if it makes him uncomfortable then I think it needs to be respected. Show him some examples and see how it goes.
So, to follow up - I showed some photos that I liked to DH, and he approved of almost every one. Basically, he clarified for me that he doesn't mind if she's not wearing any clothes, he just doesn't want her butt or her privates showing. I told him I didn't want that either, I just want some cute pictures of her that are tasteful. He approved which ones he was ok with and which ones he wasn't, and I'm happy with our compromise.
On a side note, thank you ladies for all your input and advice! It was greatly appreciated!
