Those first 48 hours after your baby arrives is a whirlwind of indescribable emotions, overflowing joy, cherished visits from loved ones, and tender snuggles. Your new babe will already showing you their personality as you hear their tiny coos, see their lips curl as they cry, and feel how strong they are as you attempt to change them for the very first time. There is so much to take in and remember.

After you leave with the hospital, time will accelerate and so will your baby's changes. You will blink and your newborn won't fit in the palm of your hand. Before you know it, you'll be celebrating their graduation from high school. You may already be well aware of how fast time flies if you already have a child!

I firmly believe in the importance of cherishing every precious detail within those initial 48 hours post-birth. They encapsulate  of memories, love, tenderness, and awe-inspiring moments that I fervently wish for you to hold onto amidst the rush of activity.

I want this to be as simple, enjoyable, and painless as possible!

Book your photo session by either clicking this booking link or contact me through this email form if you would like to chat with me first before booking. After your session is confirmed, your portrait experience officially begins! You will be invited to the exclusive online Portrait Lounge, where you will find resources – from outfit inspiration to session tips – so you can make the most of your experience! 

I will capture just as they as are, perfect and beautiful. They get to be in charge during the session. I want to document all of the preciousness just as they are, meaning I will not overly pose your baby or bring in props that will take away the focus of this tiny new human.

Once I have collected your finished photos, I will place them inside a gallery portal and send you a direct link to your own photo gallery. From this portal, you can purchase and download your keepsake images.
