I started photographing women in 1999 and have created portraits of close to 1000 women and the feeling of inadequacy is universal. So, this session attempts to push the self-inflicted negative self talk away as it is simply that: negative self-talk!Īlso, many of my readers will look at the finished portraits and believe they could never look this good. Feeling fat and unattractive is common for expecting mothers. Most women feel self-conscious during their pregnancy and hormones sometimes get the better of the self-talk. We scheduled two different sittings and took breaks during each session. We may have been a bit late to schedule this one but G is strong and flexible.

It is easy to get carried away in the photo studio with props and accessories while creating a magazine-style shoot because there is so much excitement attached to this moment. In-studio, we created a number of different looks with a flowy sheer maternity dress, some taupe taffetas fabric, and then black, body-hugging dresses, tops, and leggings that she selected from her wardrobe. In order to document this life-changing milestone, G came into the studio to immortalize the delicate and raw beauty of her pregnant state. It hasn’t been an easy adventure, to say the least, but, at last, “Audrey” is on her way. 2 less so than other women but more so than most. “Birth is the epicenter of women’s power.” –Ani DiFranco
