If this friend is truly a friend you should tell him without any problem.Personally when I said this to my friends I was anxious about their reaction but after telling they said to me :was you worried to tell this to us? C'mon it is your life and if you are happy also we are happy with you.

I agree with all, you have really a lot of talent. My favourit picture is the second in gray ,the luxury in the smile of the woman while she strokes her big belly in incredible.
