Newborn & Fresh 48
photography.

Those first hours and days only happen once. I'll come to you, at the hospital or at home, and quietly capture your new little one and the family meeting them.

About the session

Quiet, gentle, and all about them.

A Fresh 48 session happens in the first days after your baby arrives, right there in the hospital room or in the comfort of home. No studio to pack up for, no rushing anywhere. Just you, your baby, and the people meeting them for the first time.

I keep things calm and baby-led. We take breaks for feeding and snuggles whenever they're needed, and parents and siblings are always welcome in the frame.

Prefer to wait a little? Newborn sessions follow the same simple package, so the $225 covers whichever fits your family best.

With love,

Renae

Kind Words

What clients are saying.

"Renae did pictures for my 2-month-old baby girl and she nailed them! She worked with me on the theme and truly captured her personality and the love. Very professional and quick turnaround. I will use her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!"

Nyana B.
Newborn session

"She did amazing photos of my baby and was able to work with me when I had some complications. Very friendly, quick, and creative. The photos came out amazing!"

Jordyn C.
Newborn session

"My 6-month-old is usually very shy with strangers, but was so relaxed and happy during our session. Renae was incredibly gentle and captured the most amazing shots. She has a natural motherly touch that makes all the difference. I highly recommend her for any parent looking for beautiful photos and a stress-free experience!"

All questions
What is a Fresh 48 session?
A Fresh 48 is a short, relaxed session in the first couple of days after birth, usually in the hospital or birthing center. It captures those very first moments: tiny fingers, first snuggles, and big siblings meeting the baby.
Do you come to the hospital?
Yes, in the hospital or at home, whichever feels right for your family. Hospital visitor policies vary, so it's worth checking yours ahead of time.
When should I reach out?
Before your due date is ideal, so I can plan around it. Text me anytime and we'll figure out the timing together.
Can parents and siblings be in the photos?
Yes. Immediate family is included, and parents and siblings are always welcome.
How long until we get our photos?
Your edited gallery is delivered within 2 weeks, and you'll have 30 days to download everything.
