Family Photos

If your looking to save money on pregnancy pictures, you should read the following steps.

1. Get pregnant
2. Grow a belly (guys can do this too)
3. Borrow a camera
4. Borrow a tripod

So far, everything listed has been free. Some of it has been fun. I rather enjoyed eating Trina's leftover supper each night from week six until week fifteen.
5. Take the sheets off your bed
6. Wash them (optional)
7. Hang them on your wall with thumb tacks
Although washing them is optional, it is highly recommended if either you or your spouse drools.

8. Figure out how to use the ten second timer

9. Smile pretty

10. Edit the pictures to accent your wife's beautiful belly

If your husband is feeling left out, you can repeat steps 9 and 10 to include his new baby bump.

This is just a small taste of the pictures that we took. There are many more that I would have loved to post, but some are more private than others. All of the shots were very tastefully done.

One of the highlights surrounding these pictures was when we picked them up at Wal-mart. The guy at the photo booth didn't want to give them to us because he thought we were printing these without permission from the photographer. He wrote "copyright?" on the packaging. He must have thought we were breaking copyright laws. When Trina said that we took the photos, I could tell that Trina was proud of our work. She did a great job with these. I just wish you could see them all.

I got to see all the pictures and they are fantastic! Some are definitely more private but they look very professional and are beautiful. It will be something you will treasure and enjoy as your child gets older.
