There’s something about being there for people on some of the most important days of their lives. Their excitement and joyful spirits are addicting! I think that’s why I’ve taken a liking to the Fresh 48 sessions so much. I want to say it’s lower pressure, which it is, but you still have a very small window, so I think I can compare it to a wedding day in that sense. Working under pressure or under time constraints must be my thing, I’m learning.

I’ve gotten so much joy from photographing these sessions. It’s amazing watching new (or seasoned) parents and big sisters or brothers experience their little sibling for the first time. The moments that happen in the hospital room are unique and fleeting. Documenting them is such an honor! I’m very interested in shooting more of these so please help me spread the word to your expecting friends and family!

Enjoy the cuteness overload below!
