Prince Harry And Meghan Markle's Pregnancy Announcement Photographer Wants Image To Represent “Fortitude, Hope And Love”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's pregnancy announcement photographer wanted their photos to symbolise “fortitude, hope, and love”.

He said: "You don't even see the image, you feel it. They are lost in each other. And the tree in the background and just life growing around them is incredibly powerful and symbolic.

“[It’s meant to symbolise] fortitude, hope, and love. Particularly for the many women going through this, this should give them strength to know there's light in that dark place. It really means a lot."

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Misan — who is based in London — wasn’t able to travel to Los Angeles to photograph the couple in person, so the shoot instead took place remotely using an iPad.

Detailing how the unique shoot came to be, he added: "In the age of COVID, it's impossible obviously for me to be there to shoot it, so technology came to rescue. I was able to remotely take over the iPad and they could hear my voice and it was conversational and the rest really is history."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced their baby news over the weekend when they shared the image alongside a statement from their spokesperson.

The message read: "We can confirm that Archie is going to be a big brother. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are overjoyed to be expecting their second child."— BANG
