Default My latest maternity shoot

So I did a maternity shoot for a couple friends of mine and got a couple I really like so I thought I'd share. I think the first two are my favorites, believe it or not #2 was a white background! because I purposly underexposed the picture the background was more of an darker creamy color, so I took the photo in RAW and adjusted the white balance til the background went blue, then took the proper white balance photo and layered it underneath in photoshop and erased over the woman (so she wouldn't be blue) I really liked the outcome. (They are having a boy)

Yea, this couple goes to church with me so I thought with the blank black space and the emotional feel of the photo a scripture might be nice. Since I was at the computer I just did an online search for a scripture that had to do with children and this was one of them that came up and I kind of liked it. I thought it added to the feel of the photo, hopefully they will agree.

Gorgeous set and very well done. I really like the backlighting and the PP on your second.
