Great photo, Keri! Mom-to-be looks just a little uncomfortable (maybe because she's about due?), but still a good shot.

Lovely photo, just a little out of focus (her face). Other than that, she has a beautiful face and smile, coupled to a...certain skin glow seen on mothers to be. Beautiful model.

Thanks everyone for the comments. This was a great shoot. She could hold a smile all day if I asked her to. SHe said she was very comfortable up against the tree. She's 34 weeks along with twins. Will add some more pics in a few.

IMO your first shot is the best, except for that fence in the BG. However I deleted one of your images due image posting rules. Please review IMAGE POSTING RULES,https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=51022

They aren't really OOF... just looks like maybe your aperature was too wide perhaps. This is a lesson I learned when doing maternity specifically. We want the beautiful belly in focus, and we tend to shoot with aperatures like 3.5 by habit because we photgraph many little faces... Try stopping down to about 6 or 7 and see if that helps open up your focal range. I think you'll see a difference in the belly being in focus along with the pretty face.

Beautiful scenery here.. love the setting, and the momma is so pretty too! :)
