First Maternity Pics

[BeccaJ]

This is my friend Mandie and her boyfriend Michael.

Had never done maternity shots before...I asked her if I could take some. Cause i have 2 pregnant cousins and a pregnant sister and me thinks I'm gonna have to take alot of them this summer! LOL

All shot with available light only. We have since purchased strobes!! Ooooo talk about lots of things to learn now!!

All of this is from a window in the room. We hung a black sheet on the wall just to see if it would work til we can get some paper or muslins...
