In full bloom! Mother-to-be is photographed with her baby bump covered in flower petals for whimsical shoot celebrating pregnancy

From paddling in the ocean to standing in a field at sunset, these breathtaking images capture the beauty of a pregnant woman’s body. 
The whimsical photo series was planned and captured by Monsieur Plant.
In it his partner, believed to be called Yeva, is photographed either naked or barely dressed with colourful petals scattered across her breasts and baby bump.
At the time she was pregnant with the couple’s infant son, Leon.

The images document Eva between 32 and 26 weeks pregnant and see the mother-to-be standing in a number of beautiful locations in and around Marseille.
Speaking about the photos, Christophe Guinet said: ‘In this personal project, I wish to sublimate these weeks of patience and put the beauty of the woman in these magical moments, where Nature and Love make perfect allies.
‘The selection of landscapes found in the series such as the forest, the mountains or the sea are elements that form part of my surroundings.
‘The vegetable and body compositions merge together revealing gentleness and patience in a poetic universe.’
Mr Plant is an urban gardener best known for his unusual and creative flower and vegetable designs.
