Fresh 48 Photography : Capturing Those First Precious Hours
There’s something absolutely magical about those first 48 hours after your baby arrives.
As a Fresh 48 photographer, I’ve had the privilege of documenting countless families as they soak in these precious moments that seem to slip by in the blink of an eye & that newborn haze.
Picture this: tiny fingers wrapped around mom’s thumb, those first sweet milk-drunk smiles, and those impossibly small hospital bracelets that somehow manage to look enormous on your newborn’s wrist.
These are the details that make Fresh 48 sessions so incredibly special.
I recently visited the Cambridge Memorial Hospital to capture a family welcoming their second little one.
What exactly is a Fresh 48 session?
Think of it as a gentle, relaxed photo session that takes place within the first day (or two) after birth, right in your hospital room.
There’s no need to leave the comfort of your bed, no outfit changes or hair/make up required, and absolutely no pressure.
Just pure, raw, beautiful moments as you bond with your newest family member.
Many parents ask me why they should book a Fresh 48 session when they’re already planning newborn photos.
The truth is, these first hours are completely different from a posed/in home newborn session. Your baby changes so quickly in those first few days – that fresh fresh skin, the curled-up position they’ve been comfy in for nine months – these fleeting details deserve to be preserved.
As your Cambridge Fresh 48 photographer, I promise to document these moments quietly and respectfully, working around feeding schedules and medical team visits. We’ll capture everything from the hospital details to those first family snuggles, creating memories you’ll treasure for generations to come.
