I’m Shelly — a camera in one hand and a joke ready in the other. Let’s make photos that feel easy, natural, and full of life.
Fresh 48 sessions capture those first precious moment with you and your new baby at your place of birth. Fresh 48 sessions document all those tiny, fresh features, baby wrinkles, and one on one bonding with mom and baby.

Fresh 48 sessions capture those first precious moments with you and your new baby at your place of birth. Unlike more traditional newborn photo shoots, these sessions focus on documenting the raw, unfiltered beauty of your baby’s first two days in this world. Every tiny, fresh feature, from baby wrinkles to those first bonding moments with mom, is preserved forever.

A fresh 48 session usually begins shortly after birth, right at the labor and delivery entrance of your chosen healthcare facility. This natural, unposed style of photography captures the authenticity and emotion of your first day or two together as a family.

These sessions are typically held within the hospital room or birthing center, where every moment tells a story. The sight of your newborn baby laying peacefully in a bassinet near a window, the tender interactions as mom admires and cares for her newborn, and those close-up details of tiny fingers and toes, all form a narrative that is as personal as your unique experience.




With the rising popularity over the last decade, these photos have become a cherished way to immortalize the earliest hours of your baby’s life. The goal is to capture every fresh detail of your newborn, from their tiny feet and brand-new toes to their wide-eyed wonder.






Through these sessions, every smile, yawn, stretch, and cuddle are captured, providing a timeless memory of your baby’s entry into the world and the beginning of your journey together. Bonding, nursing, soothing, and napping during these initial days are moments you’ll treasure forever, and a Fresh 48 session ensures they are lovingly documented.
