You just had a baby, you're going to walk out of the hospital looking several months pregnant still. You're only setting yourself up for disappointment if you want to look "skinny." Everyone will be focusing on the baby in the pics anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681329 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 11:39:57 +0000 Meowkers 2681329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our photographer asked us to wear black, simple shirts so I wore a black tanktop and dark jeans. Our photos were waist up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681326 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 11:31:35 +0000 MrsSCB 2681326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore a dress that I regretted. It looked nice in the photos at least, but it was NOT good for nursing. My son was basically crying constantly during the photos (like bad enough that the photographer gave us a discount because we couldn't do as much as we'd planned) and having something that was easier to nurse in would have been so much better. We ended up getting a few photos that I'm very happy with, but it was stressful. So basically, don't make my mistake if you plan to breastfeed ;-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681314 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 11:25:22 +0000 sapphire 2681314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maternity jeans and a sweater that wasn't maternity but that was cut loosely. Our photos were at home so I think a dress would have looked overly formal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681291 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 10:49:14 +0000 youboots 2681291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Grey leggings and a long white button up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681281 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 10:41:19 +0000 psw27 2681281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore a black (maternity) t-shirt and a black skirt. It basically looked like I was in a black t shirt dress. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681278 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 10:38:58 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 2681278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore a white maternity tank (not a nursing tank, ugh to the clips!) and maternity jeans. But my belly was well hidden in all the shots and I feel like I looked so pretty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681213 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 09:25:03 +0000 josina 2681213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My photographer had told DH and I to both wear black shirts. We wore with jeans, which didn't matter b/c shots were waist up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681202 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 09:09:23 +0000 BadgerMom 2681202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A white gap vneck maternity t shirt and black leggings. Our photographer told us to dress plain and comfortable since there weren't going to be any full length shots of adults and you don't want anything distracting from the baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681199 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 09:05:37 +0000 yoursilverlining 2681199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore a black wrap maternity dress. Only one family shot where you can see my body, the rest were pretty close up and upper body. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681184 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 08:31:37 +0000 erinbaderin 2681184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dark skinny maternity jeans and a black tank top. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681170 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 07:51:55 +0000 Littlebit7 2681170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i wore dark maternity jeans and a sweater that I KNEW was a complementary color for my face (its a pinky coral from Jcrew. I get a bazillion complements whenever I wear the color.) I hope the pretty color would distract from el stomacho. Which worked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681168 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 07:37:51 +0000 Mamaof2 2681168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>solid black V-neck</p> <p>no shots waist down </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681151 Tue, 17 Jan 2017 06:55:01 +0000 PinkElephant 2681151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you're planning on studio style shots, bring solid black and solid white tops. I wore plain fitted tees in a size up so they were more forgiving with maternity jeans(I think...like @snowjewelz: there are no full body shots of the grown ups). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681115 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 23:10:32 +0000 snowjewelz 2681115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No shots that were waist and down for me... I wore a simple loose ish solid color shirt to keep it clean and simple and to let DD shine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681105 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 22:31:24 +0000 Foodnerd81 2681105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore maternity jeans and a drapy top- it was pretty plain but had an interesting neck. I figured any pictures with me the baby would be mostly covering my outfit anyway. It was fine. The photographer did recommend plain- no big patterns, pockets, or anything, so wouldn't distract from the baby. </p> <p>Unfortunately the shirt did hide how puffy my face still was but that's ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-wear-for-newborn-photo-shoot#post-2681102 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 22:17:47 +0000 babybean404 2681102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm feeling huge this pregnancy (still have 4 weeks to go) and we just booked our newborn session for a week after my due date. I realized I am going to have to wear something and I am not sure that any of my maternity dresses will cut it. Ideas for what to look for or outfits that make you feel skinny when you are postpartum??? </p>
