I'm going to attempt three blog posts this week. That's especially ambitious, considering I'll be single-parenting for most of it. You just watch me.
I mentioned a few posts back that I was considering having maternity photos taken. I've never had them done with previous pregnancies, and felt like if I ever wanted to document myself in this preggo state, it was now or never.
I knew I didn't want anything belly-baring or overly serious/pensive. Having lost our last baby has made me more contemplative, scared and grateful during this pregnancy, but the joy and humor of being pregnant again has not been swept aside - and I wanted to capture that.
I found a really wonderful, kind and patient photographer here in Rio, who just had a baby herself. I think she registered just what I was hoping for. Having Ipanema Beach as a backdrop didn't hurt, either!
What d'ya think?
