As a mom, some days might feel long and you might feel more tired than you have ever felt in your entire life, but the one thing that is certain is how fast those moments pass us by. So capturing those precious memories is one of the most important decisions you can make now to last a lifetime.
My goal is to capture these memories to last forever. To provide timeless heirlooms to cover your walls and bring back all those feelings … the excitement, the joy and even the butterflies, that is our goal. Sessions are devoted to bringing out the raw emotion between mom and her baby and capture the pure love between family members.
Fresh 48 newborn sessions, also called hospital sessions, document those first days with your new baby. These sessions typically take place within the first 48 hours after your baby’s birth with the day after being most common. However you can even plan on documenting these photos the morning of the day you will be discharged. Sessions are documented in your hospital room and help to freeze those very first days with your new baby. I take a lifestyle approach to these sessions and encourage you to just soak up this special time with your new baby. Your baby changes so quickly within that first week of life so these sessions are perfect for helping you remember just how tiny your baby was.
Studio newborn sessions are the perfect choice when you still want to document this special time while your baby is so tiny and young but maybe your home does not have the best light or your baby’s nursery is not quite finished. Studio newborn sessions are best documented within the first 12 days when your baby is still in that sleepy stage. These sessions are baby led which means I will pose them in ways that are more natural for their little bodies and let them stretch and move naturally. My style is very clean, organic and natural, using white backdrops and wraps so that the focus is on your baby and their perfect little features.

Those early days at home as a new family are priceless. There really is nothing quite like it. Newborn sessions take place in the comfort of your home, making it perfect for capturing all those sweet details of your baby’s nursery. Sessions are completely on your baby’s schedule. This means if your baby needs to be fed, changed, or just cuddled, we take a break. I focus less on posing and more on capturing those authentic family moments … the way you look at their tiny perfect features, the snuggles and pure joy. Sessions vary and are unique to you and your baby. Some babies are sleepy the whole session and some want to watch everything going on, no matter what your baby prefers my goal is to freeze these early days at home to remember forever.
