Our Baby Announcement – A Photographer’s Take
A couple of months ago, my wife, Montanna, and I shared the exciting news that we’re expecting a little boy in March! Naturally, as a photographer, I knew I had to announce our baby in a creative way through photography.
After brainstorming, Montanna and I decided on a unique approach—we would include a letter board, my stepson, Remi, and, for the fun challenge, our two dogs all in one image! Sounds like a recipe for chaos, right? It had the potential to turn into a meltdown with two runaway dogs.
Spoiler alert: There were no meltdowns, and the dogs did better than expected! In fact, I pulled off the entire shot in under 10 minutes. To create the final image, I actually combined three separate photos. I’ll share the original final image first, followed by the three unedited, straight-out-of-camera frames that made it possible.
