Default Maternity shoot ideas

a coworker of my husband is going to be a grandmother - he asked her if I could do a maternity shoot with her daughter (who also works with them) as I am still learning my camera.

they both thought it would be a wonderful idea (Grandmother would be in the pic too as she might not be there for the birth of her grandchild - she has terminal brain cancer )

We are going to meet at the park (wooded) this weekend so I would love some good ideas. I am also going to do photos of the baby when the baby is born (esp if grandmother is still around! she is a wonderful woman and I am very saddened by the fact she won't be around to see her grandbaby grow up)

I may not be great - but I think it's something they will treasure forever

Good Luck - just try to focus on the mother/daughter connection. Check out maternity sessions that other photogs have done for ideas!

are you on Pinterest yet? the photography boards have great ideas in all areas. once you get to pinterest, you can narrow your search to maternity and pin the ones you like on to your own board. Then review them before you shoot.
