A pregnancy announcement, but make it couture.

When it comes to sharing your big news, finding a creative and personal way to announce your pregnancy can make the moment even more special. Forget the standard studio shots and ultrasound photos—this family found the perfect pregnancy announcement idea in the heart of downtown McKinney, Texas, and the results are absolutely stunning.

Downtown McKinney offers a charming and picturesque backdrop for any photo shoot, but a pregnancy announcement session here is something truly unique. The historic brick buildings, quaint storefronts, and tree-lined streets create a warm and inviting atmosphere. What made this session truly special, however, was the inclusion of one of McKinney’s iconic red trolleys. When I tell you I gasped as that sucker drove by…phew! Afterwards, we all grabbed gelato at a local shop, and I think it’s safe to say that was the best tip I have ever received. I couldn’t help myself from snapping a few more shots of the family munching on their ice cream featuring the newspaper.

This session proves that a great pregnancy announcement idea doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s all about finding a location that speaks to you and a concept that reflects your personality. Whether it’s a bustling downtown setting like McKinney, a favorite park, or a cozy corner of your home, the most memorable announcements are those that feel authentic.

Looking for your own pregnancy announcement idea? Take a cue from this stylish McKinney session. Think about what’s special to you as a couple. Do you love coffee shops? Are you avid travelers? Incorporating these elements into your photos will make your announcement a cherished memory for years to come.

And, if you’re ever in the area and need your own family photos done, I’m your girl!
