matetnity pics?

Who is or is not doing maternity pics and why? I didn't do any with my first baby but did them for my second. I'm on the fence this time, not sure if they're worth the money because i don't really go hanging them up at work or anything lol

My hubby takes pics of me! I agree no need to get it done professionally if you do, that's cool. We have a family session after baby done.

When I get bigger I'm just going to have my best friend.. Who's not a photographer go out with me and my man to a nice setting and take pics of us. It doesn't have to b professionaly done or do u need an expensive camera. Just a nice setting and a lil Photoshop. We had my dad take our announcement pics and everyone thought they were done professionaly but they weren't. U just have to find a nice background and someone to take the pics then upload them to ur computer and Photoshop how u want it to look. We spent no $ and it was fun :)

I do mine only simply cause my husband is amazing and we have had a good camera to do them and this being my first one. But if I had to pay for them to be done then I would probably wait till the baby is here and do the family newborn sibling pics!!

Im doing maternity pics because my friend is an awesome photographer and with my last pregnancy I was ashamed and had low self esteem and with this one I have learned to embrace pregnancy and im loving it
