I had no idea what I was doing.
My daughter was twelve hours old, my new camera had barely been out of the box that long, and my legs were still iffy from the epidural. But in the quiet of the evening with all visitors gone and my husband snoozing in the hospital recliner that only comes in that odd shade of mauve vinyl, we were finally alone - just she and I. Me and my baby girl.
So we're gonna come clean here. Lindsay is one of our favorite momtographers. Not just because her photographs are beautiful, but because of the way she's captured the rip-roaring details of her little boy's life over the last three years. They're always ripe with attention to the little things in "B's" life. That should have tipped us off to what was coming next - but when these photos of her second pregnancy started coming our way week-by-week, we were BLOWN AWAY.
Seriously? What's not to be inspired by? This gorgeous mama has a belly to DIE for! But beauty awards aside, what really inspires us is that she DID it. All by herself. In her living room. For all the world to see. And now, she has these memories forever.
We asked Lindsay to sum up her experience in hopes that it'll light a fire for the rest of us "belly challenged" to document such an amazing time in our lives.
