Since this is my third child, I'm struggling with finding a creative way to commemorate this pregnancy.  With the first, we had a photo session.  The second, my mom and I created a belly cast.  So why not do a nude photo shoot this time?!  Wrong!  Not ever going to happen.
But, it seems I'm in a minority with this thinking.  Someone showed me a website for a metropolitan photographer who specializes in family and maternity photos.  The picture contained partial frontal nudity for the woman and rear nudity for the man.  Why?
I'm  a firm believer in the beauty of pregnancy, but I'm still the same woman.  If I won't take nude pics without a baby bump, why does the bump make it acceptable?  The pictures I saw showed far more than the belly.   When does nudity transcend from porn to art?

Nude? I don't think so. But how about this? (some of these had me laughing)

Karen,
I just took a peek at these. How cute! People are so creative! Perhaps I have some ideas.
Unfortunatley, our society has blurred that line far too much to tell anymore. I hope you find a good way to commemorate it and by the way CONGRATULATIONS! Sorry, I know I'm a little late.
I think nude is actually ok as long as it stays between you and Tre meaning he'd have to take the shots not a photograher. LOL you're beautiful sis but please don't post it. Of course then little Anton wouldn't have anything to look at years from now. Yes I jumped on the Anton bandwagon since I haven't come up with anything else yet.
Nah... no photos. My mind works great!
