TikTokers the Major Keyes shared a behind the scenes video of the photo shoot they did for the gender reveal for their third child. The couple and their daughters were all dressed in white and were posing against rocks in a sandy area. The two girls stood under a clear umbrella.

"I'm so excited!" their older daughter can be heard saying while they were anxiously awaiting for the photo shoot to begin. The mom could be seen clapping her hands in excitement as well.
The couple took two cans of paint they had waiting, and began to pour it over the clear umbrella the girls were standing under.
It's clear that the couple had a specific vision for the photo shoot that didn't come across in the video.
As the couple pours, dark pink paint begins to rain down over the umbrella. In the video, it's hard to tell that the paint is pink, many people believed it to be red, which was addressed in the caption where they explained the paint was "actually Magenta Pink Paint."
