Visiting a new family to watch as they get to know each other in those first days is so fun. Sweet Genevieve was being snuggled by her parents and admired by her extended family.

In the previous post I mentioned how Fresh48 sessions are great for those who choose not to have their birth photographed. They are also wonderful for families whose birth I have captured.

Baby Ansel was born in the wee hours of the morning. Twelve hours after leaving the hospital I returned to capture Ansel’s big sisters meeting him for the first time and the first moments of this new, larger family. Like the previous post, you can see how these sessions are different than your typical newborn session. There isn’t a lot of posing, rather I am capturing the candid moments of an event that will never be repeated for this family.

Fresh48 sessions are a newer session offering for me. It is great for people who would prefer not to have a photographer at their birth but would like “fresh” pictures of their baby – fresher than newborn pictures. Unlike your traditional hospital pictures, Fresh48 sessions are completely relaxed and for the most part, un-posed. The aim is to capture & preserve memories of your family as they are, welcoming this new addition.

Fresh48 sessions take place wherever you give birth. In this case, Amaya was born at home. When I received the call that she arrived, I made plans to go to meet her the next morning. When I got to the house, I met dad and the energetic new big brother with the best hair. Yes – I had major hair envy when I saw him!  You can see why:

It is always such an honor to be invited into a home to take photos of a brand new baby. This session is my second of my newest offering – Fresh48 – where the session happens within the first 48 hours after birth. Little Quinn was just two days new! He was welcomed by big brothers and a big sister with lots of smiles and enthusiasm. I am sure in no time he will have them all wrapped around his little fingers!

I am so excited to not only announce but SHOW my newest offering – Fresh48 sessions. A Fresh48 session is for those who do not want the entire birth photographed or just want high-quality, documentary style photography of their new baby. This session happens during daytime hours within the first 48 hours of birth. Just like a birth session, it’s done documentary style with me coming to wherever you are – be it the hospital, birth center or your home. Fresh48 sessions last about an hour and include a disc of 20+ fully edited high-resolution images on a disc with print rights as well as a 5×7 proof of each image.

Here is a session I shot just two weeks ago for a family who had a lovely home birth just 24 hours before the shoot. I love the excitement the two older brothers had when they got home and were reunited with their new little brother!
