Posts in Fresh 48

My last shoot of 2015 couldn't have been sweeter! This little gal arrived right before New Year's and her family could not have been happier! Big brother Patrick was a bit unsure of his new sister, but like most toddler boys, was easily distracted by snacks and plenty of attention from his parents. I know I say it all.the.time. but I truly love Fresh 48 sessions. Not only are the babies just perfect, the sessions are just so honest. Hoping to fill my calendar full of Fresh 48's for the New Year but for now, enjoy this precious baby girl!

Another Fresh 48 in the books! My favorite type of session to shoot, and with such a wonderful family. I'd previously photographed this family's two sons as a suprise Christmas gift for their Mom, so it was very exciting to hear that they had a new baby on the way! I know they were thrilled to add a little girl to their family. Just beautiful!

Oh my gosh. This sweet little nearly 9 lb strawberry blonde bundle of joy. He belongs to a good friend of mine and his arrival gave me some serious baby fever!! I mean, how adorable is he? There is nothing better for me than photographing a beautiful fresh baby. I love the red cheeks, dry skin, and wrinkly little feet. Absolute perfection! Mom was looking beautiful as well after delivering her 3rd little boy in less than 4 years. She will be loved and taken care of forever.

Another Fresh 48 in the books! I simply love visiting families in the hospital to capture the moments following the birth of their baby. I have been photographing this family since big sister Avery was 8 or 9 months old, so being there to capture and bear witness to these intimate moments was that much more special. It was wonderful that the grandparents were there as well, I'm sure Taylor will be happy one day to have a photo of them holding her on her first day of life. I'm photographing Taylor's newborn session next so stay tuned for those images!

I keep saying it, but I swear, Fresh 48's are quickly becoming my favorite sessions to shoot. Can't you just feel the love and joy coming from this family while they are snuggling their new addition? Such a special time that I am so honored to capture! If you are expecting, contact me for more info on a Fresh 48 session!! 

I can't believe there are only hours left of 2014! I loved working with so many families over the past year. It was wonderful seeing so many families again and meeting new ones as well. This job is so rewarding and it's all because of my amazing clients. All so beautiful, both on the inside and out.

I have been thinking about this kind of session for a while. There is something so incredibly special and fleeting about capturing a newborn baby while they are still fresh from birth, wrapped in that familiar blanket and wearing that sweet little hat that ends up in their baby books. I have been so drawn to this type of newborn photography, that I just knew it I had to add it to SBP!
