Nervous to Pose Pregnant?

Perhaps you are already thinking of having your own maternity photo shoot, but are a bit doubtful if you are actually going to push through with it. Remember that it's not just about capturing that bulging belly on camera and having a remembrance of how you look. It is more about encapsulating the pure happiness of a mom-to-be, the glow of knowing that there's a little human being growing inside of you. It is also about having a keepsake to remind you of the deepening bond and love that you share with your baby.

If you are quite nervous about this entire idea of baring your changed body to somebody's lenses, here are some tips you can follow:

• Get a good sleep before the maternity photo shoot. When you wake up on the day itself, smile and think of happy thoughts and of the great blessings that are pouring onto your life. 
• Prepare the clothes and props (if any) that you will be using for the photography session ahead of time. It would be good if you can already put them on and view yourself in the mirror beforehand, so you will feel more comfortable in them and will not worry so much about how you look.
• Make sure to eat well before the maternity photo shoot, and to drink lots of water too! Have some crackers ready in case you get hungry. 
• Relax and focus on the beautiful creature inside your tummy instead of losing your mind thinking about all the imperfections of your body and face. Don't worry. You'll surely be a glowing mom-to-be!
• Chat and be friendly with the photographer so you will feel more at ease. 
• Enjoy the session. Do not wear or do anything that you feel uncomfortable with. 

Good luck with your maternity photo shoot. Have fun and share your pictures at the Mommy Keepsakes page on Facebook! :)
