1. Beware of clichés
It is quite difficult to be creative in a subject that is so often put in the picture. Chances are that you will expire soon cliché images. Not every model can be a problem, but it's definitely something to discuss in advance. You can photograph with your hands together form a heart on the belly may skip.
Incidentally, you can do something as a photographer is a huge cliché and do not want to capture. Chances best present you model that picture just like it has. It has the typical picture probably not as often seen as you.

2. More than fat bellies
For most women, their belly is not the only thing that grows during pregnancy. Also, other parts of the body can be a lot stronger. That's something not every woman would like to see come back into her pregnancy photos.
For example you can avoid thick arms in a photo by letting them simply out of sight, but also tightening some muscles and shoot at the right angle you an arm there show a lot thinner than it actually is.
Personally, I have no qualms about applying a little Photoshop magic just better to show a pregnant lady.
3. Soft light
It is obviously not a requirement, but mostly soft light coming from one direction helps good to give the belly bulge nice weather. Personally I like to use a large softbox (Octabox in my case) to create beautiful soft light. Put the soft light close to your model; the further state to the model of the light source, the more the light is.
Structure and depth in a picture do by letting the light from the side of your model fall from one specific direction. Put not offset frontal two sides a flash in the abdomen, which pictures are quickly boring and flat.
Just make nice smooth transitions roundness of the belly visible. Use a reflector rather than a second flash to capture close walking shadows.
Do you have some nice photos shot with soft light? Try therefore agree with just harder and backlight. Also a picture in which the body is seen only in silhouette can be a nice photograph for anyone who knows the lady still recognizable.

4. Timing
Timing is important in a belly photo shoot. The abdomen should be large enough to be visible, but you must be careful that you are not late; before you know the baby is born prematurely a few weeks and you have missed your chance. The chance is present that the stomach in the last few weeks some less sphere is that the baby descends.
Somewhere between 32 and 38 weeks is best to hold. If possible, you can also make multiple appointments. So you can capture the abdomen several times.
Do you really talk in there then you could create a series of 10 pictures that you put together in a Instagram collage; each month one of the growing belly and the last picture of the baby in the arms of the mother.

5. Stripe Loos
With such a big belly is a (pregnancy) pants obviously been sitting tight quickly. It is therefore good to remind you that she pregnant model from approximately one hour to shoot any tight clothing has on her belly. Chances are that you leave behind different streaks will stand out in the photo.
A little in the same vein; in belly photos are often hands placed on the abdomen. That can indeed produce very nice pictures, but also ask you in advance model to provide well-groomed hands. And do not forget the partner; men's hands are generally less well cared for, but also common in the picture.
6. Clothing
As for clothing, you can obviously go either way. Usually it is beautiful as is shown bare belly anyway. That after all is about. A tank can often be erected beautiful. Also, a blouse is fun; You can use this then unbutton from the bottom and the fabric on both sides of the abdomen dropped away.
Uniform clothing often works best; black or white for example also be combined with a white or black background. Naturally confirms the exception to the rule.
With fewer clothes can also. With a (sport) bra or lingerie, but also a pregnancy photo where the model naked on condition of course is beautiful. Personally I find it often the most beautiful and strategically placed hand or the right camera angle to ensure that the stomach really keeps the attention grabber in the picture.

7. Accessories
Work with accessories to give the pictures a little extra. Especially pink and blue accessories can be useful with the picture directly to clarify the gender of the child. Think of a colored ribbon in a ribbon around the abdomen, for example, or a ruler. The (future) hug the child can be a fun accessory during the shoot.
What is done often indicate the name of the abdomen. These girl pictures can be used later in the birth. The name can express in many ways, for example, think (wood) letters, paint, or -as below- using butter and mice.

Also an older brother or sister is a nice 'accessory'. Let them hold the abdomen, kissing or listen to the baby in the belly. It sure looks cute! Be careful when taking the pictures on the attention of young children may remain at often very short. Usually you have no more than fifteen minutes before they no longer want to work with. Work so fast!
8. Location
Often the pictures are taken in a studio. Especially the photos with a white or black background are often just a favorite. A studio is of course also can turn a good option where you all year to make beautiful pictures.
A nice alternative is to plan out a photo shoot. The weather should naturally go well, but a nice green area (or even a location somewhere in the middle of a city) certainly gives nice pictures.
