The first few days after your baby's arrival seem to pass in a dreamy haze. Lack of sleep paired with the post-birth euphoric fog makes it easy to forget the details of those first 48 hours. The joy and celebration of loved ones meeting the new baby, first baths or even just the snuggles and looks of awe as you adjust to your new roles as mom and dad.
There are lots of little details worth remembering too. The iconic hospital swaddles in stripes of pink and blue, the oh-so functional bassinets that every new mom should be sent home with, the tiny diapers and hospital bracelets. Babies change so fast in those first hours and days. A Fresh 48 session is a beautiful alternative to cell phone photos that leaves you with images of your baby's first days, worthy of hanging on the nursery wall.

How does it work?
Send me a note and let's get this friendship started!
01
Once we've made things official, watch your mailbox for a welcome package containing lots of great information as well as some fun surprises!
02
I am here for you, anyway I can help! Let me be a resource beyond photography. I'd love to share what I've learned from over a decade of motherhood and photographing mamas with their little ones.
03
I'll check in around 36 weeks to see how you are doing and go over any last minute details.
04
Once your baby arrives, have a designated person whose job it is to reach out to me! This can be you, a spouse, a mom or sister, anyone you trust to get me word that baby is here. We will then make arrangements for me to come to your hospital room during daylight hours within the first 2 days following your little one's debut.
05
I'll meet you in your hospital room for a quick hour long session where I will gently guide you through a series of photographs that document your baby, the hospital room and your relationship with your partner and new addition. I'll send a sneak peek over that day, to share with friends and family.
06
I hope our relationship doesn't end after I deliver your images. I want to hear all about your adventures in motherhood and it would be a joy to continue to document your family. I offer special milestone sessions to my #cwbabies so I can continue to watch them grow!

FREQUENTLY ASKED
It can! In cases where photographers are not allowed in the room, a Fresh 48 session is a great alternative to birth photography. That said, it is also be a great compliment to birth sessions and I do offer a special rate for my birth clients who would like to add a Fresh 48 session to their collection.
I have photographed almost 2 dozen births and several dozen more Fresh 48s and haven't missed one yet! When you book with me, I clear my schedule surrounding your due date to make sure I am as available as possible. Communication as you approach your due date approaches to ensure that I am there.
Fresh 48 sessions are reserved for hospitals as they are very documentary style. I do offer lifestyle newborn sessions which are perfect for those who delivered at home or in a birth center. You can find more details about lifestyle newborn sessions here.

"As hard as I try, the written word can never come close to capturing the beauty, emotion and memories of my daughter's birth the way Claire did with our birth video. Those same words fail to express just how grateful I am and how I will cherish it always! I only wish I had such an opportunity with my first babies."
