Something really wonderful happened while Barbara and I were traveling through Indonesia. Yes...... we are going to have a baby this summer, so life is about to change.. a lot. :)
I wasn't sure about putting this photo online, but then again, if I wouldn't have, people who visit the site regularly would suddenly see a baby and read about me being father. So I figured the story just wouldn't be complete without a few photos showing Barbara while being pregnant.
This photo is definitely out of my comfort zone : a wide depth of field, no fancy light setup, a classic pose, only very basic editing, and last but not least, my girlfriend captured in a very intimate and vulnerable way. Still, we're both glad we can share this with you.
Thank you for visiting.What do you think of "twenty-four weeks"?

Things change, even the way we shoot. And this way is very nice too. All this white feets very well. I love pregnant shots because we see the woman at the top of her feminity. This is a new 2 in 1 model you have for some months. (maybe I would have stooped a bit to be at the same level as her and not to see the ground).

Hey nonkeltje, nog eens proficat hé !
Comment in english so everyone can understand :)
Congrats once again for the baby. Very nice picture, almost a heavenly feel due to all the white.
Barbara must be very courageous, because indeed the pose is quite intimitate and vulnerable.
