I wasn't sure where to put this but I wanted to share it. This was my first photo session regarding pregnancy.
Thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated.

I like it. I wish the shadow on her side wasnt quite as dark but it is a very nice pic!

I love it, but I agree the shadow side is pretty dark. A soft broad kicker at camera right coming from behind and lightly grazing across her skin and hair would have been great, but we have what was shot. If this was a Raw file and you saved it as such I would go in and lighten those shadows up.

Hi Zairia,

...I agree with the others: a tad lighter shadow would do the pic good

...what bothers me more is the font you used: the capitol I looks like a slash ( / ) dividing two sentences

and the fact that the three I's are all above each other doesn't help in this respect...

the text itself is nice, though

...just *my* €0.02...

...and thanks for sharing your 'first pregnancy'

Kindest regards,

Max@Home
