Our Fresh 48 Hospital Session is a beautiful way to capture your child’s first moments with you. I will come to the birth place (whether that’s a local hospital, birthing center or your home) within 48 hours of the birth. This gives you a chance to shower and feel a little bit more like yourself after giving birth while still being able to capture the baby in those first few days. We can capture just you and the new baby, your immediate family or even extended family like grandparents – it’s totally up to you who is included. The session will take about an hour and will give you 30+ images. The fully edited black and white images (a few may be in color but most will be in b/w) will be ready for download 2-3 weeks after your session.

I only offer Full Births on a very limited basis and only at certain times during the year as it’s very hard to be on call 24-7. I keep my phone on and near me at all times as it gets close to your birth and the second you’re in labor you start communicating with me. I literally drop everything to be with you at the birth. There is no limit on number of hours I’m there and no exact number of images you will get – all births are different. If you have never used me as your photographer before but are interested in having me capture your birth we will meet for coffee ahead of you booking because liking ME in addition to my work is incredibly important as I’ll be hanging out with you during your most important day! Births are special. I’ve gotten to be a part of dozens of births over the years and each one is amazing. Having me there allows you and your spouse to be present in the moment without worrying about actually taking the photos. I love birth photography and if I’m unavailable for yours I will happily give you other names of talented St. Louis birth photographers in the area.
