To say that I was excited for this session would be an understatement. I had heard from Mom several months back so had her due date on my calendar for some time. She signed up for a package with me, to document the birth of new daughter with a Fresh 48 session, as well as 3 baby milestone photography sessions over the course of her first year. Fresh 48 sessions are amazing and beautiful and so incredibly unique to me. They aren't overly glamorous, but there is so much excitement and love that it's an emotional moment to document. As a photographer, it's a fun challenge to work with the lighting and space available sometimes. Luckily though, the hospital she birthed at has large private rooms with gloriously large windows (which makes this Philadelphia Fresh 48 photographer jump for joy!).
I arrived just as their older son was being dropped off to meet his sister as well. I quick ran to grab my camera and set up across the room from the door to be able to capture his excitement at meeting his brand new sister and seeing his mother. He had a little bracelet that said "big brother" and was SO proud to have his own bracelet to show off, just like the rest of the family did with their hospital bands. She arrived the weekend of the Super Bowl so all of our area was decked out in green for the Eagles (the last image was one I just couldn't resist). I'm so excited to get to work with this family over the next year documenting this beautiful little girl in her first year.
If you're interested in a Fresh 48 session, remember that you get 10% off your session when you book one other session (maternity, lifestyle newborn, milestones), and get 10% off the other session too!
