This is a good lpt, honestly.

I'm a photographer and there are hardly any photos of me, even from before I got into it professionally. I'm uncomfortable in front of the camera. But when I was pregnant I made sure to take a few selfies and set up a photoshoot with my partner near the end. It was cold and snowing and I was uncomfortable, I ended up having to cover my cute dress with layers to keep me warm. But I set up the shot with my tripod and also had my partner snap a few of just me. I did it for my baby. I didn't know for sure we would get to meet her (I have a history of many pregnancy losses) but I wanted the photos for her. I wanted her to see how excited and happy we both were. There's always risk in giving birth and if something happened to me and she made it I wanted those photos to exist. Thankfully we both made it fine. I still fight with the urge to hide from the camera but I try to take a selfie with her every so often. I've dropped the ball on doing family photos but I'm trying to plan some soon. I may not enjoy having photos taken but I just remind myself it's not for me, it's for her and my partner in case something happens to me.
