Atlanta woman takes maternity photos at Taco Bell

ATLANTA - A pregnant Atlanta woman decided to "heat things up" before her baby arrives by taking hilarious maternity photos at one of her favorite spots... Taco Bell. 

Maternity photos have become very popular in recent years, with many moms-to-be posing before dreamy-settings as they wait for their bundle of joy to arrive. Blogger Kristin Johnson, of Strollers and Stilettos, said she wanted something a bit "spicier" that also showed her in her natural state. 

Johnson got glammed up and headed to the Smyrna Taco Bell on Cobb Parkway, dressed in a full-length red gown. She posed in front of the restaurant, then went inside and enjoyed some of her favorite menu items, which appeared to include the "Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Tacos Supreme." 

"Maybe God-willing we will be blessed with a third and I can take one of those stunning mountaintop or beachside photos, but for now, I felt inspired to have my maternity shoot at one of my favorite places, a place that I can turn to anytime I get a craving or just don't have the energy to cook dinner - a place that many of us have a fondness for in our hearts - TACO BELL," Johnson said on her blog, sharing several photos from the shoot. 

Johnson, originally due January 10, gave birth to baby Teddy last week, on January 5. She told FOX 5's Katie Muse that she stopped at Taco Bell on the way home from the hospital. 

"Huge thanks to Taco Bell for always being there for me in my time of taco needs, and for helping my dream come true of having this shoot at one of your beautiful Atlanta locations," Johnson said.
