Everyone wants to create memories from when they were pregnant. It’s a beautiful time that you can share with your child someday.
Except when those photoshoots turn into something that is just downright weird. With different props, weird poses, specific clothing, and odd locations, we can’t even begin to imagine just what inspires these couples.
RELATED STORIES
Here are some of our favorite maternity photos gone wrong, which we think you’ll enjoy too.
1. Bearded beauty
Let’s not discriminate: if our bearded allies want to have the experience of carrying a baby for nine months, let them have it! We certainly won’t stop them, that’s for sure.
2. To plank or not to plank?
Remember that whole planking craze when people would take photos of themselves lying face down, arms to the sides in unusual public spaces? Well, I think this person takes the cake. Pregnant plank, for the win!
3. Poke, poke
Couples do a lot of weird things behind closed doors. Maybe he’s just picking out her belly button lint for her as a kind gesture. Who knows? We’re not judging…
4. Which way to the beach?
Can’t tell if this is supposed to be a maternity photo or if this is supposed to be an advertisement for the upcoming World’s Strongest Man competition. I have so many questions.
5. The belly whisperer
I long for the day when someone will whisper sweet nothings into my belly super casually. I’m imagining him saying, “Don’t worry, our sweet little babe. Everything is lit out here!”
6. #HusbandGoals, much?
We love that that when this man’s wife didn’t want to take maternity photos, he took his own. That is a whole new level of extra that we aspire to be someday. Bravo.
7. Bey ain’t got nothing on him
This man’s wife ordered this stunning outfit for their maternity photos. But when she tried it on, it didn’t fit her. Rather then send it back, he tried it on for her and worked it out. DIVA!
8. Push it. Push it real good
This couple doesn’t seem to take themselves too seriously and we love it. We wonder if they are just practicing the faces they’ll be making in the delivery room for baby’s arrival.
9. Fill ‘er up
If only all pregnancy was as easy as being filled up with a bicycle pump! But we’ll give this couple credit for their ingenious idea. Now let’s hope Santa and the elves leave them something nice.
10. But why tho?
We have to be honest, this photo gives us the creeps. Is he trying to drink out of her belly button? Is this an image they’ll to show their child? We don’t know the inspo here but they seem real close.
11. Food babies matter
This duo is so proud to be welcoming a brand new food baby into the world. We’re so thrilled for them! We know how hard they worked to conceive this food baby and we wish them all the best.
12. On the next episode of Sister Wives…
I am pretty sure I saw this on an episode of TLC’s Sister Wives and I am like, so here for it. What an awesome and progressive way for a family to show off their pregnancy!
13. We had to do a double take
Is this another man who’s taking his partner’s maternity photos for her because she didn’t want to, or is this our eyes playing a trick on us? Whatever the answer, he’s glowing!
14. Pregnancy, but make it fashion
I am getting Serena Williams in Vanity Fair realness…but if Serena Williams was on a tight budget and could only afford garbage bags. Either way, the commitment to this look should be applauded.
15. Karate kids
I wonder if they did this shoot in their dojo? She’s rocking that baby bump so hard that her master would be proud. I’m waiting for The Karate Kid Ralph Macchio to pop out at any moment.
16. It’s a…burrito baby!
To be honest, this is the way I look at a burrito every single time I order one as well. I want to meet this couple so I can give them a high five. They are goals.
