After His Wife Refused To Take Maternity Photos, This Guy Posed For Them Himself

Pregnancy is a special period in women’s lives, so no wonder that most parents-to-be want to preserve their memories forever through maternity photography. This guy, however, was sad to hear that his pregnant wife didn’t want such a photoshoot, which he was looking forward to so eagerly. Luckily (or not), he came up with an idea: he decided to take his wife’s place and have a maternity photoshoot with himself instead of her. He hired a photographer and took a series of photos with nearly all of the stereotypical poses of maternity photography, posing with his inflated belly and posting the photos on reddit.

Call him crazy, call him hilarious, call him bizarre if you like, but this guy’s insistence and courage is pretty admirable!

Photographer Captures Baby Next To Mom’s C-Section Scar To Show That It’s Perfectly Natural

Cesarean section is a procedure where an incision is carried out on the mother to extract the baby. It has its downsides, and some mothers might be unwilling to talk about it. Helen Carmina, a family photographer, had this unlikely mother ask to take a picture of her c-section scar together with the baby.

“I photographed this mama’s pregnancy a while back and she was telling me how terrified she was of having a c-section,” Carmina, who lives in Guernsey, UK, wrote on her Facebook. “Well last week she went into labor but had to have an emergency c-section after complications. She asked me to come over this morning and shoot this particular image as her worst nightmare proved to be what saved her and her child’s lives.”
