Maternity Photographs

I have been thinking about maternity photography lately. I think it is so amazing that women are honoring this time in such a way that really allows pregnancy to be celebrated. What a difference from only a few years ago. What I like about woman asking to be photographed is the process. Uncovering, connecting, feeling beautiful, this can be really healing. I also have been noticing that I like these photos I am taking of only the belly. So it can become the symbolic image, to be displayed as a piece of art.

Full portraits are beautiful as well, a much different feel. But so lovely to see such a beautiful mama, at peace with this daunting position.
