Hubs wants to DIY our baby photos. I kind of cringe at this thought only because neither of us are professional (or even amateur) photographers in any sense. We do have a nice camera though and I know he wants to save some money.
We I did look at photographers and price out newborn photos. Just the one session would end up running us an average of $300-400 when all is said and done. So I can see why Brad wants to give it the old college try. Thanks to Pinterest I've been reading articles and saving them to show Brad. Hopefully we can pick up enough tips and tricks to make these look really nice.
10 Tips for Photographing Babies
I really wanted maternity photos done and approached Brad about it with the thought that this could be a nice practice run for newborn photos. We spend the morning taking shots around the house. Then we decided that we would brave the outdoors...in the middle of the winter...in Wisconsin. It was a sunny 8 degree day (not including the windchill). Needless to say, we did not last long outside.
Just a little peak, but I really liked them. These have not been Photoshopped yet. The top one is going to be a silhouette where I am more blacked out and you can just see my shape. Showing off that little bump!
For the second photo I just wore leggings and one of Brad's work shirts. Something comfy and relaxing so the bump could take center stage.
