Need help with Baby Bump photo shoot

[muddygirl]

Hi ladies,
I have to do a Baby Bump photo shoot in a couple of days. I haven't really done one before, and I know many of you have, and beautifully. So I was wondering if you could link me up to some examples so I could gets some ideas and if you have any other advice I would really appreciate it.

I have two studio lights and a backdrop frame, on which I normally just use sheets or blankets ( white, black, beige, crushed blue and crushed pink). I have 3 lenses to choose from, Canon - 50mm 1.4, 28-105mm and 100-300mm. I was thinking the 50mm would be best. Any ideas??

Thanks everyone

I can't tell you how to do it, but I'll try to explain the coolest baby bump picture I ever saw. (it was super cool and is only an option if you will be around at night).

The "bump" was standin in front of a car and standing directly in front of one of the headlights so that you couldn't see the person, just the outline of the body. The other head light was in the shot too, so it looked really weird, but cool. Hard to explain and I tried to find the picture, but I couldn't.

Thanks Sarah. I think I can picture what this would look like

Its a shame that no one else has responded. I know there was a thread a while ago that had some great shots in it, but i cant find it.

Sam I remember that discussion, Kim Weiss I believe is who posted. Anyways she's linked up with another photographer you can find some belly bump photos here.
