30A Photographer | The Thigpen Pregnancy Announcement

This session is incredibly near and dear to my heart! As a 30A maternity photographer, I’ve had the honor of documenting many growing families – but I’ve known Sarah since she was my son Brody’s Pre-K teacher, and I instantly liked her from the very start. She is kind, sweet, and has such a good heart. She is a truly gifted teacher, and I often wish all my children could have graced the inside of her classroom.

Celebrating a Little Miracle on 30A

When Sarah shared the news that she was expecting, I knew we HAD to do a special 30A pregnancy announcement session. There is something so sacred about those first few weeks of knowing a “little miracle” is on the way, and capturing that excitement against the backdrop of our beautiful coastline is always a joy.

Sunset Beach Portraits

We headed down to the shoreline to catch that signature 30A sunset. The soft, ocean-mist twilight provided a dreamy, ethereal glow that perfectly matched the mood of the session. Sarah looked absolutely radiant, and getting to document this milestone for her growing family was such a privilege.

Why 30A Is the Perfect Setting for a Pregnancy Announcement

The Emerald Coast gives an announcement session everything – soft pastel skies, sugar-white sand that flatters every silhouette, and quiet shoreline moments that feel anything but staged. If you’re still picking a backdrop, my Destin and 30A locations guide walks through favorite spots for announcement, maternity, and newborn sessions.

Whether you’re announcing the news, planning a full maternity gallery, or already counting down to a newborn session, I would love to help you build a session that feels like you. My maternity and newborn approach is gentle, lifestyle-led, and built around your family’s real story.

A Heartfelt Congratulations
