Maternity Pictures???

Should I or should I not get maternity pictures? After talking with my friends they think it's a good idea. I'm on the fence though. What do you do with them after? Do you put them up? Who do you show them to:) I guess its really just to capture the moment and the experience, but I don't really know how I feel about them.
My friend Stephanie, is a fantastic photographer, so if I do I'm going to have her take the pics. Check out her photos www.preciousmomentsphotos.net.
John doesn't really want to do them with me... says hes gained too much weight while I've been preggers. HA!
Here are some I like. Im definitely not into the sexy naked pregnant photos:)

 

Any thoughts? Has anyone had a memorable story with a maternity shoot? Would love to hear.

All the best,

I'm taking a Photography class!!!

I bought a SLR camera awhile back and I never use it because honestly I don't know how! I have wanted to take a photography class forever to learn how to take those cool pictures you see everywhere, but just haven't gotten around to it. I don't want to be a photographer I just want my own cool pictures;)
So, thank to Groupon (which is awesome) I have signed up to take a private lesson with Don Wright photography. He seems cool and his pictures look great. The date for my first lesson has not been confirmed yet and I am very eager to get started.
My main goal is to be able to take great pictures of my little Ella on the way!

I love baby pictures that look like this:

All the best,
