In her stunning new fine art photography book RIPE: The Essence of the Pregnant Nude, award-winning photographer Alexa Garbarino provides a fresh perspective on the power and beauty of the pregnant female form.



Her subjects are normal women with normal bodies, posing nude in locations that are meaningful to them – from Jess on the 6 train and Kerri at the Lincoln Memorial to Jen at the Golden Gate Bridge and everywhere in between. “I wanted to create a book that people could appreciate artistically and also learn from in a personal way,” says Garbarino. “I am in awe of these brave women who chose to celebrate their pregnancies in the most personal and public ways.”
