The Story of 40 Weeks.

I am developing a new concept album for the maternity sessions. At this moment its called "The Story of 40 Weeks" but I am sure it will evolve and change names as I delve more into this concept. The basic concept is really simple. We start taking the photos as soon as the expecting mom starts showing her baby bump. We do a mini session once a week and select the perfect photo from that session. That photo becomes the image of that week. The expecting mom has a small job in this also. Once a week she will reflect on the week and the experiences she had and jot down a little note for the baby. Each week until the baby is born, there will be a new photo and a new note to the baby. All of this will be assembled in a 8x8 leather bound book and enjoyed for years by the mom, the baby will also have a great memento of the mother and child journey.
I started this book with my lovely wife and our soon to be second child. We take a photo once a week and my wife jots down a few notes. At the end of all this it will be turned into a 8x8 book for us to have and look back on. Here is a sample of how the pages look like. I will try to post on this blog each weeks pages.
