A Pregnancy Announcement in Forest Hill

As a photographer, I am sometimes privy to special announcements and life news before other people. No matter the occasion, I feel extremely privileged when a client trusts me with their secret. I love being able to help them celebrate the way they want. Maternity clients in particular tend to have conflicting feelings about wanting to tell everyone and also wanting to keep it a secret *just in case.* I feel especially honored to be drawn into the inner circle to help with pregnancy announcement photos.

Megan contacted me in September with her joyful news, and asked me to help her put together a pregnancy announcement to share with her friends and family. We met in Forest Hill Park with her partner, pup, and pup-wrangler-sister-in-law on the gorgeous first day of Fall.

I was more than a little excited to shoot a pregnancy announcement and spend some time with my friend and her growing family. She had a particular idea about how she wanted her announcement to go, and we worked to get her specific shot before we wandered around Forest Hill Park a bit to get some early pregnancy images of her with her partner.

I appreciate Forest Hill Park for all of its nooks and crannies. The park is so large that I can (and have) hold multiple photo sessions here and have none of them look the same. The stone stairs, curved bridge, big rock wall, lake, gazebo, paths, waterfall, and culverts all give so many different options for sessions. There are options for big and small families, maternity photos, and even couples wanting a small session.

Megan and Nick, thank you so much for trusting me to stay quiet, and letting me help you celebrate! Happy thoughts for a safe and healthy pregnancy!
