Beautiful photos of a mom of two who is pregnant with quintuplets — five babies — have gone viral on Facebook. The photos, taken by talented photographer Erin Hoskins of Erin Elizabeth Photography on a scenic beach, show mom Kimberly Tucci posing in different flowing gowns while wearing a crown of delicate flowers, looking like a Grecian goddess.

Tucci, who lives in Perth, Australia, with her husband and two children, is currently pregnant with one son and four daughters. She has been sharing her pregnancy journey on her aptly named Facebook page, Surprised by Five.

“With two beautiful daughters (aged 2 and 4), Kim and her husband decided they wanted to try for one more (possibly a boy!),” wrote Hoskins on her Facebook page January 19, where the photos received more than 57,000 likes, 6,700 shares, and 3,300 comments. “So you can imagine their utter shock upon discovering that they were expecting their little boy…along with four more girls — a one in 60 million chance pregnancy.”

Hoskins notes that they were cutting things close with the photo shoot since Tucci, who was 24 weeks pregnant at the time, was due to be hospitalized at any point for her high-risk pregnancy. “But the stars aligned, and we lucked out with Kim still able to move around with relative ease in front of an epically beautiful Perth sunset,” Hoskins told BuzzFeed. “She was just radiant for this session. Despite her shy nature, she held herself like a queen and was an absolute pleasure to shoot. I’m so looking forward to her newborn session in a few months time.”
