They Didnt Want Traditional Baby Photos so They Did This Instead ...

Jan and Chase Renegar's "Baby" Shoot • Justin Sylvester's Man-ternity Shoot • Dave Engledow (and Alice Bee) • More ...

Who hasn't fallen in love with the gorgeous maternity and newborn baby shots our friends have posted on Facebook (and we've secretly pinned on a "someday" board on Pinterest)? If you're looking for a new (and hilarious) twist on these traditional shots, read on - three couples have broken the internet with their own takes on the trend.

1. Jan and Chase Renegar's "Baby" Shoot

Jan and Chase Renegar's "Baby" Shoot ... and their doggie-baby/Jack Russell terrier, Snuggles.

Atlanta couple Jan and Chase loved the work of a local newborn photographer so much, they scheduled their own shoot. The twist? They don't have a newborn... but they do have a darling doggie, who sat in for baby with hilarious (and oddly sweet) results. Aren't these photos adorable?

2. Justin Sylvester's Man-ternity Shoot

Justin Sylvester's Man-ternity Shoot When daddy-to-be Justin Sylvester's wife politely declined her own maternity shoot, he stepped in and modeled for the camera instead. The result is a set of photos that he'll look back on fondly, and that are sure to provoke giggles (and then in the teenage years, embarrassment) from his little one.

The joy and wonder...

3. Dave Engledow (and Alice Bee)

Dave Engledow (and Alice Bee) Self-proclaimed World's Best Dad has produced several sets of photos of his wee daughter, and they're all wicked funny! It's been fun to see her age, and to finally get a glimpse of proud (and probably very laid back) mama, Jen.

Mama's helping out now, too...
