 This was a gift to my friends for thier first pregnancy. I tried adding some of my own light to the scene via a shoot through umbrella but I found that the natural light was far more apealling. I also chose to convert to B&W because the sky was an overcast grey and I felt that was distracting in the color version

Bad lighting, "meh" expression and almost too depressed to fit the title.

Maybe a little bounce light showing off her "love bump" might make this better...but I like it just the same!! (8)

Some fill lighting would have been wonderful. I do conceive what you are portraying.

The background does nothing for this image and It's hard to see the subject (abdomen).

Good subject, it would be nice to have the subject a little lighter

This seems to be stretching the definition of power too much.

If you have a reflector I think it may have helped to put alittle fill light on the subjects. Although I like it the way it is too.
