The Baby Bump

Alright ladies... I need your help!
I really want to do some cute pictures of the "belly" I need some ideas. I never thought that cute and HUGE BELLY could be in the same category and I am struggling to get over it. :) Do yall have any ideas of how I could take some pics. to show off this belly, baby, and pregnancy and yet still look good? Is it possible? I have a good friend wanting to take some of me, but I don't want it to be embarrassing so any help would be appreciated!
How do you avoid showing off stretch marks? Oh yea, I said it! I have some. Not a ton, but they are there! And are demanding attention. Do I just go black n' white? Do I do side shots? How much skin do I show? Is too much... too much? hahaha! Do you see my anguish? :) ha. Thanks ladies, I know you will come thru!

ha ha.... you are funny! If you don't want to show any skin, consider just wearing a camisole & bra. It will be tight enough that you can still see the belly. But you should take a few of your belly, stretch marks and all. You don't have to show them to anyone but you will be glad you have them for yourself later.

I LOVE being preggo!

Seriously, you need to take some shots. I'm sure you will come up with some creative ways to show off your sexy prego belly!

Ok, so I've been getting into photography now that I've finished school, and I'm taking some classes, workshops, you name it. I'm constantly out looking at pictures. Here are a few maternity shots from a couple of photographers that I like. Maybe it will help you get some ideas. You'll look way cute in whatever you do. Also, remember to just do whatever makes you comfortable. If you want a lot of skin do it, otherwise just do as much as you feel comfortable...they will turn out amazing. As you will see in some of these websites, you can show as much or as little skin as you want.

Also, if you are worried about the stretch marks, the photographer can use software such as photoshop or lightroom to clean them up. No worries.
