I missed out on a golden opportunity with both my children - absolutely no belly pictures exist for me to show them or to reminisce myself.  Pregnancy photography has become increasingly popular since then.


I just can't believe I let the opportunity slip past me.  I *truly* hate having my picture taken, but pregnancy is not a timePregnancy Portrait in your life you can get back.  


 So, I guess the best solution is to prevent other mothers from missing out on this opportunity andmaternity pregnancy portrait remember my own pregnancies vicariously through their photos!


I've added a couple of inspirations to this page already.  The first is a unique idea that lets your significant other get involved without the whole "I hate having my picture taken" argument.  It highlights the beauty of pregnancy in a very creative way.


The next is a silhouette of your pregnant belly.  It's simple yet touching, and a very natural way to capture your pregnancy on photo.
