Maternity portraiture is the one of the newest & largest business trends that photography has seen in ages. It all started with that Demi Moore (photographer Annie Leibovitz) cover in Vanity Fair in 1991 & it has grown tremendously with new creativity and techniques.
Here are some definite DO’s & DON’Ts with maternity portraits.
1. Be comfortable! Although maternity portraits are best to be taken within a month of your due date (the closer to the due date the better) and that time period is probably a uncomfortable moment in time its best to understand your body, know what positions are more comfortable than others & be open to sharing that with your photographer. Example: If you’re having constant cramping in your legs when you sit or lay down too long, make sure the photographer understands that you need to change poses more often than not. If you’re in pain, the photos will reflect that.
2. Feel beautiful! If your going to be investing in maternity photos (even home-made ones) you want to feel pretty going into them. Splurge & get your hair done, put make-up on – and remember to bring concealer with you to your photo shoot. Its true that Photoshop can get rid of most stretch marks but so can concealer – and when you pamper yourself, that glow will come thru in your photographs.
3 Share your thoughts! If you have certain ideas of poses, props, or themes – share them with your photographer. A photographer should be open to trying out your ideas – its makes your photo session more special when you take a vested interest.
4. Props – Props are fun to use, especially with maternity shots (flowers, drapes, etc) but make sure your props don’t overshadow the major prop – your glowing, beautiful belly.
5. Outdoor portraits – If you are going to go outdoors for your maternity session make sure its during the best time of the day for outdoor portraits – twilight or dawn. Also ask your photographer if they have a portable reflector/diffuser to use – those tools really do help to regulate the lighting outdoors that can prevent sunspots, streaks, or squinting.
6. Finally, Have Fun! This is a truly special & unique time in your life – let it be your 1st child or your 10th. Enjoy this moment – include the people that you want to be apart of this moment. Friends, children, your spouse or significant other. Be goofy, try new things – and make sure you trust your photographer – make sure it’s your story that is being told thru these photographs.

On Photography $81.25 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles On Photography is a 1977 collection of essays by Susan Sontag. It originally appeared as a series of essays in the New York Review of Books between 1973 and 1977. In the book, Sontag expresses her views on the history and presentday role of photography in capitalist societies as of the 1970s. Sontag discusses many examples of modern photography. Among these, she contrasts Diane Arbuss work with that of Depressionera documentary photography commissioned by the Farm Security Administration. She also explores the history of American photography in relation to the idealistic notions of America put forth by Walt Whitman and traces these ideas through to the increasingly cynical aesthetic notions of the 1970s, particularly in relation to Arbus and Andy Warhol.
