📸 What Is a Fresh 48 Session?
A Fresh 48 session is a documentary-style photo session that takes place within the first 48 hours after birth — typically at your birthplace (hospital, birthing center, or even home birth). It captures the raw, tender, unfiltered beauty of your first hours together with your baby.
- No props. No posing. Just real, honest moments:
- The first time your baby curls their fingers around yours
- Their wrinkly toes, hospital bands still on
- Your partner’s tears
- Big siblings peeking into the bassinet
- Your face when you look at your baby and whisper, “You’re here.”
In a culture of polished Instagram newborns, this is a rare chance to remember what the beginning really looked like.
💛 Why Do Dallas & Plano Moms Book Fresh 48 Sessions?
If you’re delivering at hospitals like Texas Health Presbyterian Plano, Medical City Frisco, Baylor Scott & White McKinney, or Texas Health Allen, a Fresh 48 session is your chance to make sure the experience doesn’t fade into a blur.
These photos are especially meaningful for:
- Second-time moms who know how fleeting this stage is
- Moms who’ve experienced loss, and want to honor the miracle of this birth
- Families who want genuine, story-driven images, not just pretty pictures
As a mother and photographer who’s walked this path myself, I know how sacred this time is — and how few photos actually capture it. That’s why I offer Fresh 48s: to preserve the emotions, not just the milestone.
🤔 FAQ: What If I’m Not Sure When I’ll Deliver?
Great question! That’s why I only take a limited number of sessions per month — to be flexible around early or late arrivals.
When you book, you’ll receive a simple guide with:
- What to pack
- How to notify me (just a quick text or email once you head to the hospital!)
- What to expect during the session (gentle, respectful, 20-40 minutes)
We’ll plan around natural light, and I’ll show up with heart wide open, ready to document your baby’s first chapter.
🏥 Where Do You Photograph Fresh 48 Sessions?
I serve all major birth locations in Collin County and North Dallas:
Texas Health Presbyterian Plano
Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – McKinney
Medical City Frisco
Birth centers in Plano, Allen, Frisco and Prosper
Home births across the North Dallas suburbs
And if you're not sure yet where you’re delivering, we’ll plan flexibly together.
✨ What Sets My Sessions Apart?
This isn’t just a quick hospital photo. I bring nearly a decade of experience in newborn photography, but even more than that, I bring a mother’s eye.
I know which moments matter — the ones you’ll want to remember 18 years from now.
And I shoot them quietly, respectfully, with no flash, no fuss, and all the tenderness your story deserves.
