Fresh 48: The first days

  • Taken within first 48 hours of baby's life

  • At the place of birth

  • Session lasts approximately 1-2 hours

Fresh 48 sessions capture the quiet, fleeting moments that follow delivery. These hours hold a unique mix of exhaustion, tenderness, awe, and adjustment as you begin life with your newborn.

The focus is not on perfection, but on presence—tiny details, first connections, and the atmosphere of those early hours. These images preserve the feeling of the beginning, exactly as it was.

Client Reviews

  • “I had the BEST experience with Hailey documenting my 4 year old meeting her 48 hour old baby sister in the hospital. She showed up on time (early, actually) and asked if I needed anything on the way that she could bring. The pictures she took of our daughters meeting + our little family being together for the first time are pictures I will cherish for the rest of my life! They all turned out so beautifully and she captured every single moment and detail perfectly. Hailey is so sweet and easy to work with, I would recommend her to anyone to use her for their birth photos or first 48 photos. She’s the best!!!”
