Prenatal belly painting is increasing in popularity as a unique and beautiful way to celebrate new life with color, creativity and personalization. Getting your belly painted and photographed professionally is a unique and fun way to create special memories of your pregnancy! The ideal time to have your belly painted is between 6-8 months, or when your belly is big enough and you feel the most comfortable. You can also invite the artist and photographer to your babyshower event.
The design can be anything the future mum desires from a personal vacation moment to someting abstract. Although the paint will wash away, the memory and the photograph can bring a lifetime of smiles to her and someday to share with her child.
Some future parents want to tell a story with their choosen belly art design.
If you are an animal lover, you can choose your favorite animal.
You can also choose a fun design like a cracked egg, kinder surprise egg or any other design that makes you laugh.
Another great idea is to create a realitic painting of your baby. It can also be a copy of your echography.
You can also choose any aesthetic design, your favorite food, your personal interests or a hobby you share with your partner.
Even if it might be disturbing for the most people, there are some who choose a scary design. It can be a design of your favorite movie, book or comic.
An other idea is adding other family members to the design. Here the future parents decided to add their dog caring the new family member.
The ideas of belly paintings are endless. If you are unsure you can also bring multiple elements to incorporate into the painting to create a new personalized art work.
I hope you got inspired and found some nice ideas for your future belly art photo shoot.
Make sure to not put any cream or lotion on your belly prior your session.
