Admirably Good

“The strength Emily portrays as a Mother is admirable, to say the least,” Damis stated. “When she mentioned wanting to exhibit that strength by turning herself into a goddess for her maternity shoot I wanted to make that vision come to life. Her ideas are unique just as she is, and that is one of the reasons I love her so!”

All Gold

No need to say, this photoshoot of her has attracted the eyeballs too. These amazing pictures have Emily painted gold in a Cleopatra-themed shoot. You can also see her wearing a headdress formed of 16,000 swarming bees. 

Not Easy

The woman even got stung by one of the bees during the photo shoot. However, the very next day she got ready for the shoot with the same enthusiasm. Emily held 12,000 bees the following day while posing for the maternity shoot.    

Preparation

They had to go through a lot of preparation while posing for the shoot. Emily described, “We had to put sticks into my bald cap and put a ring of grass on it because the bees couldn’t grip onto the cap as it was soft plastic.” “Then my husband emptied the bees onto the ground and we just stood there and waited. We put the queen bee on my head and they swarm up onto wherever the queen is, and that was my head.”

Wild Maternity Photography

This was not it. They had many new ideas in their minds. After posing with bees, the couple hired Outback Ray who rented them animals for their shoot. Emily recalled, “He had a yellow python.” “It was not dangerous – this guy travels to elementary schools and has kids hold them and hold the snake.”

Interesting

Scaringly, the woman posed with an eight-foot long yellow python. Clearly, you can see in the picture that python is coiled around her body. Initially, she was nervous as she had no prior experience with snakes but soon got comfortable after learning that the snake had not hurt anyone. For her, the shoot was “really cool” and “an amazing experience.”
