T and I just received our photos from our 35 week maternity shoot. All I can say is wow. I am so beyond thrilled with them. Ive mentioned before that I am my biggest critic when it comes to photos of myself and yet when I first looked at these instead of psycho analysing each and every photo I just burst into tears. Happy tears. Admittedly hormonal tears, but never-the-less very much happy tears. I have never loved photos of myself as much as I love these. I cannot thank Jane enough for taking them. They really are precious memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Im so excited I just had to share a few with you.

I love this one because I look so happy. In reality it was freezing (its winter here) and I had countless pieces of grass and twigs sticking into me. But I love the fact that it looks so effortlessly comfortable.

I know this one is your typical cliché maternity photo, but I have to admit I am a sucker for cliché photos!

I love this one for numerous reasons - T is in it, hes touching my belly, we're on the beach and we look content. What more can you ask for really.
This is only a tiny selection of the awesome photos we have. I am so glad that we got a professional photo shoot done (well technically this is our second one) and now we have all these wonderful photos to share with our daughter in the future.

I'm glad I got some done also, well with No.3 - I still look at them and can't believe how BIG I actually was :)
ReplyDeleteI cant believe how big I am in these too and ive got so much bigger in the last 3 weeks! Lucky there is only 2 weeks to go.
DeleteSo beautifully done, such a great keepsake because they grow up far too fast.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the love heart, even though its been done so many times everyone still adds their own "feeling into it".
The first photo, of you laying in the grass, is simply gorgeous.
Thanks Lisa the first one is my favourite out of all the photos we got.
DeleteI never got any pregnancy photos done because I was so huge and preferred to spend money on getting a photo shoot done of the baby and our family. Love these photos and you look awesome for 35 weeks!
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos. Makes me wish I had got pregnancy photos done.
ReplyDeleteSweet photos that someday will be beautiful memories.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, you look amazing for 35 weeks. Good luck with the next few weeks!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I dont know that I feel amazing though.
DeleteBeautiful photos. A friend got some done with her second bub and had one with a satin sash draped over her belly and it was simply gorgeous. I wish I had taken more belly pics.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up with us at The Lounge
I got some with a satin sheet draped around me and they came out really good too. Didnt include all the ones I loved though because then there wouldve been 30 photos in this post.
DeleteThey are gorgeous. I didn't do any proper maternity photos, just random ones here and there. I was an absolute WHALE though so I don't really mind that there aren't many pieces of evidence of it. Ha!
ReplyDeleteI flip between thinking im a whale then thinking im too small depending what day of the week it is. I just hope shes not a huge baby.
DeleteBeautiful photo's, priceless memories! :)
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I love the cliche one too xxx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Toni. You and T (and baby!) will enjoy these photos for years to come.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photographs! You and the bump look gorgeous X
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots Toni..I had photos and my belly painted with flowers by a friend. My older sons both had their bellies painted but with sharks with blood coming out of the sharks mouth. The group shot was pretty interesting! How exciting you are at 30+ weeks-not too much longer now..
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! I really love that last one too! Very content! Not long now!
ReplyDeleteDamn! I wish we'd thought of that!
ReplyDeleteWe have some 'progress shots' somewhere and the missus once drew a big smiley face on her full-term belly but a professional shot is a great idea! Thanks for sharing
I LOVE the first one in the pink dress - you are one gorgeous mama-to-be! I wish I'd done it but it just never occurred to me that I should capture the moment so to speak. They will be so lovely to share with your bub once they're older :)
