    Maternity Shoot

    So a model asked me to do a maternity shoot with her... never done it before. So it would be a very good experience for me and good for my portfolio too.

    c & c appreciated.

    Wow! Looks like her water could have broken at the shoot!

    I like the top left and bottom right the best. The bottom left her pose looks very unnatural, because the purpose of her upright leg is seemingly gone - understandably legs look better lifted on their toes, but it looks like thats the only reason its like that. On the top left, the lifted leg looks a lot more natural with her arm up and looking away like that.

    The bottom right: the bg is just barely there without being blown only in a few little strings. I think it would look better either all the way blown, or throwing in some gradient effect, or showing a bit more highlight detail in bg.

    Good night! That could have been a maternity and newborn shoot all in the same day. The photos and light are so well done I doubt she or anyone will be looking at her legs
    I understand the bottom left shot though, I used my legs for balance too lol
    Beautiful series!
