~~ Preggo! ~~

{I’m headed to Greece this weekend for a wedding, I’m super duper excited and at the same time really nervous. It’s the first time I’ve ever been nervous about traveling but for some reason I’m so ridiculously excited about Greece that I’ve come full circle and I’m nervous! I always feel really fortunate about the fact that I get to travel to amazing places and photograph my fantastic couples.  I guess we’ll see how Greece treats me, any tips/tricks things I should know about Greece/Greek culture?

My good friend and colleague Rebecca Wood has a  huge belly. The huge belly is a result of a baby growing inside it! I’ve never ever once shot a pregnant woman and I’ve always been very very apprehensive about it. For some reason I have a HUGE fear of pregnant bellies.  I think it might be because they are so important…I’m just terrified of anything happening to them! Anyway, when I asked Rebecca if I could shoot her I was overjoyed when she agreed. I’m a huge fan of her photography so it was a total honor to photograph her. I don’t think I’ll ever do a belly shoot again, but it was a great learning experience for me!

September 22, 2009 - 12:52 pm Mandi - I lied, I did read it. :P Very nice shots, maternity photoshoots are awesome.. I think you did a good job. If you put more variety to it [i.e., do it in studio, half nudes, etc.], you could increase your clientèle by a lot. :) Have fun in Greece!

September 22, 2009 - 12:53 pm scotty - phenominal man. srsly. awesome.

September 22, 2009 - 12:55 pm Lindsay - Love the pics!! They look fantastic! You should consider continuing photographing pregnant women! I think it's becoming more and more common these days which is why i think you should continue with the belly shoots! :) My favourite one is the second pic (at the very top).

September 22, 2009 - 1:53 pm Amanda Arch - I friggin' love these. I bet it was hard to take a bad picture of her though she looks like a dream to shoot. I especially love the one that is in the second set and on the right. Awesome work!

September 22, 2009 - 2:04 pm Jessica Maindonald - I'm not sure why your not doing anymore maternity shoots, because by the looks of it your dang good at it. Great work as always.

September 22, 2009 - 3:01 pm Ngoc - No way! You HAVE to shoot another "belly shoot" again. This is so beautiful. I love the colors. Rebecca is gorgeous and I'm not just saying this, but she's beautiful! Your photos enhance her natural beauty even more and OMG, what a cute outfit! Make me wish I was pregnant right now. Pretty please? Can we book you already for our first child? We want more greggo pictures! :P
