FRESH SESSION

At the hospital, birth centre, or once you are settled at home after the birth of your baby. A “fresh session” is a beautiful way to capture the magic as you acquaint your newborn with the world.

This can be scheduled for immediately after the birth, once you are ready for grandparents or siblings to come meet the baby. Alternatively, this session could take place up to 48 hours afterwards, once you are settled at home. These sweet early days are the quickest to pass, and quickly forgotten in the haze of postpartum.

My heart for these sessions is to authentically capture the raw beauty and emotions in the postpartum period - the reality, vulnerability, euphoria, exhaustion, delight, relief, and unbridled joy that comes from welcoming a new baby into this world.

Includes a 1-2 hour session and a private online gallery of professionally edited images.
