Re: Maternity photos
yes
jean skirt and a couple different tops
like 36 weeks, I think 33 is ideal
They are up on FB
I had two sets done (thanks to having photographer friends) 1 at 30 weeks, one at 35 weeks.
The 30 week ones turned out better because it was still warm outside then, the 35 week ones were at the end of october and it was -10... so they didn't turn out too great.
both times I wore sweaters and jeans, nothing fancy. I think the more casual the better (my opinion of course).
here are a couple from my 30 week:
and from the 35 week
I like the first set better because my outfit showed my bump better
I literally just got home from having mine done and I am a day shy of 36 weeks. We went out to a lake. I had a few outfit changes: Jeans with a white tank and a purple open sweater belted over top; black form fitting dress, then next to nothing
(boy shorts and a tube bra), I also had some with a shawl over that and a white button down shirt open over the belly.
She said she'd have some sneak peaks for me sometime soon so I'll post them when I get them!
I didn't get to do any - I went into labor before I could get them done, and I was JUST starting to LOOK pregnant! =( I had a session scheduled with a friend for the following Monday, but couldn't go because I was on bedrest in the hospital.
GOOD LUCK! Wear whatever feels comfortable, and you'll look great!

I have some done around 32-34 weeks. I only liked 1 of them (and it doesn't even show off my bump)...
I had mine done two weekends ago at 34.5 weeks. I wore a few different things: black tank with jeans and a black dress, DH wore a black tshirt with jeans. Below are a few of our favorites.
They are great!
1st thing, you're adorable... 2nd, I am ridiculously jealous of you girls with no stretch marks!!! My belly looks like a sad clown these days lol
Thanks Caitlin, and please don't be jealous... I have plenty of them. Thank goodness for photoshop and thats why this photo is in black and white.
Believe me - your photos and FB poem inspire me to embrace them, but they are certainly there!
I'm feeling pretty great all-in-all. Just playing the waiting game now. I have no ideas about when she might decide to make her appearance. I don't want to get my hopes up for her to be a bit early because then I'll go overdue for sure
I know what you mean... I have had contractions 5 minutes apart for two weeks now. DH and I joke I will probably have to be induced at 41 weeks.
Although I am feeling a little off, and have a TON of pain/pressure through my hips and pelvic bone. I am just so excited to meet her!
awe, I'm glad! It definitely helped me too
For the most part I've over the whole hating my stretch marks thing, but when I see belly shots like that I think 'Daaaaaaamn... If only' hahaha
