Oh, Hey baby!
So, What's a Fresh 48?
When you and your little one are just finally meeting, there's a lot going on. Loopy hormones, recovery, aunties bringing casseroles, diapers everywhere. You might be thinking 'Is this really the best time for a photoshoot?' My answer is a big fat YES.
Fresh 48 sessions happen 48-72 hours after delivery. And whether you're birthing at home or in a hospital, it's usually a great time to document those early moments together.
This Kind of Session is Special.
And not just because you're welcoming a new life (which of course is the main reason!) In this session, we have a little more planning on the front end-- I send out a questionnaire, discussing things like your due date, when you get the best light in your home and preferences about what you want most out of the session together. I encourage new moms to not focus on the dishes in the sink or getting all 'dolled-up' for your session. This is REAL life! Let's capture it while you're in the haze of recovery so you can look back and remember it all: the smells, the feelings, the little fingers.. all of it. We aren't aiming for perfection, we're aiming for capturing the memories. Mama said it best: Babies don't keep.
After the Session
You will receive your gallery of images back and also will get to create a mini keepsake album from your session. It's a beautiful way to commemorate your journey into this wonderful thing called parenthood. I also love to see your families again year after year! This is a great way to join in the VIP client list, so you can continue to capture memories together (at a 15% off each regular session).
