Those first days with your baby are unlike anything else in life—raw, emotional, and fleeting. The tiny yawns, the softest skin, the way they curl into your chest, the wonder in your eyes as you take it all in…these are the moments that matter most. My Fresh 48 and Lifestyle Newborn sessions are all about preserving those moments so you can hold onto them forever.

Fresh 48 sessions take place in the hospital or birthing center within the first two days after your baby arrives. These are documentary-style portraits that capture the realness of those earliest hours: the first snuggles, the introductions to siblings, the first bath, the details you don’t want to forget. There’s no pressure to look “put together”—this is about love, not perfection. I’ll move quietly and gently, making space for you to simply soak it in while I tell the story of your baby’s first hours earthside.

Lifestyle newborn sessions are held in the comfort of your own home during the first couple of weeks. Instead of posed, studio-style portraits, I focus on natural, intimate moments that reflect your family as you are. We’ll capture your baby in your arms, in their nursery, curled up on your bed—tiny details and tender connections that reveal the beauty of this new chapter. I’ll guide you with gentle direction but leave plenty of room for authenticity, so the images feel honest and timeless.

From start to finish, my goal is to make this experience calm, stress-free, and meaningful. You don’t need to worry about a perfect house or a perfect baby—your story is already perfect. I’ll help you with planning, clothing suggestions, and pacing the session so everyone feels comfortable.

When you look back at your gallery, I want you to feel the way your baby smelled, the weight of them in your arms, the overwhelming love that filled the room. These are the memories you’ll treasure long after the sleepless nights fade—the heirlooms you’ll pass down to show just how loved your child has always been.
