Less than a day after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle revealed that they were expecting a baby girl, the photographer behind their recent photoshoot celebrated the couple's announcement by unveiling a never-before-seen image of the happy family.

The Sussex family portrait shows Harry and Meghan embracing their son, Archie. "What wonderful news to celebrate on International Women’s Day! Congratulations my friends, and welcome to the #girldad club H," photographer Misan Harriman wrote in an Instagram caption accompanying the image. Harriman, notably, was behind the image Harry and Meghan released alongside the announcement that they were expecting a second child—check that out below.

Harriman, who took the image remotely via iPad, told British Vogue that being asked to take the portrait was "marker of true friendship." He added, "Meg reminded me that had I not introduced her to a mutual friend then she wouldn’t have met Harry. I’m grateful for whatever small part I played." (It's long been known that Meghan and Harry were introduced through a mutual friend—presumably someone Meghan met through Harriman—though who exactly that was has never been confirmed.)

The couple announced that their second child would be a girl during their interview with Oprah Winfrey. When asked how he felt when he learned the baby's sex, Harry said, "Amazing. Just grateful, like—to have any child, any one or any two would have been amazing, but to have a boy and then a girl, what more can you ask for?" He added, "now we've got our family. We've got the four of us and our two dogs and it's great."
