What’s Included in birth and family photography services?

July 7, 2025

Hiring a photographer for your birth or family session may feel like a significant step, and you likely have questions. What exactly is included? What moments are captured? How does it all work?

Here’s a full overview of what you get when you work with me, whether you’re planning a birth session, a Fresh 48, or a heartfelt family photoshoot.

What’s Included in birth and family photography services?

Birth photography

Birth is raw, powerful, sacred, and unforgettable. My role is to document this moment with deep care and respect quietly.

What’s included:

On-call 24/7 support from 38 weeks until your baby arrives.
Arrival at your birth location once active labor begins.
Full coverage of your birth story — labor, delivery, and the first moments with your baby.
Gentle, respectful approach — I only photograph what you’re comfortable with. No graphic images unless you want them.
Private online gallery with a curated collection of fully edited images.
Complete confidentiality — I never share photos without your written consent.

Birth sessions are a mix of powerful moments and quiet tenderness — and I’m honored to be there for them.

👶 Fresh 24/48 Session

Not ready for a full birth session, but still want to capture the magic of the first day or two? A Fresh 48 is beautiful in between.

What’s included:

Photo session within the first 24–48 hours after birth — in your hospital room, birthing center, or home.
Candid, emotional images of a baby’s first hours, first feedings, snuggles, and siblings meeting.
Up to 1 hour of shooting.
20+ fully edited images in an online gallery.

These sessions are perfect for capturing the “just born” feeling before it fades.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Photography

Whether you’re documenting a milestone or simply wanting to preserve this chapter of your life, family sessions are all about connection.

What’s included:

Pre-session consultation — we discuss location, outfits, and what matters most to you.
1 to 1.5 hours of relaxed, natural photography.
20 fully edited images (with the option to purchase more).
An online gallery to view and download your images.

I focus on genuine emotions — laughter, hugs, play, and love — no stiff poses or forced smiles.

💬 My Approach

Every session is more than a service - it’s a story. I bring calm presence, gentle guidance, and a documentary eye. My goal is for you to feel safe, seen, and beautifully reflected in every frame.

If you’re curious about working together or want to know if I’m available for your due date or preferred weekend, I’d love to connect.
