Fresh 48 Hour Collection
Captured within the first 48 hours after your baby is born, this session documents the quiet, fleeting moments of new life — tiny details, gentle cuddles, and the way everything feels brand new.

I’ll join you at the hospital with a small selection of neutral swaddles and simple props, keeping the experience natural and unhurried. These sessions are designed to feel intimate and low-pressure, allowing space for rest, connection, and those first hours together.

The little personality that feels more like itself every day.

more than just photos
You're not just paying photos—you’re investing in a year-long curated experience that tells your story through every season, milestone, and memory. Here’s what that cost reflects:
​
-
Time & Planning: This isn’t a one-and-done session. It includes multiple shoots (or one shoot with consistent creative direction over time), pre-session consultations, planning around light, weather, outfits, and locations that align with your story and vision.
-
Professional Editing: Each of those images is hand-edited with care—not batch-processed. You’re getting polished, timeless keepsakes that reflect true-to-life tones and artistic consistency across the whole year.
-
Storytelling Value: A single session captures a moment. A year-long collection captures growth, change, and connection. It’s an heirloom, not just a highlight reel.
-
Flexible Delivery: With the final collection, you’re not overwhelmed with quantity but guaranteed quality—every image is carefully chosen to represent the best of each session.
-
Business Sustainability: As a professional, I price in a way that supports ongoing education, quality gear, insurance, software, and the high standards I bring to every client. It's a fair, thoughtful investment on both sides.
What to Expect
For me, this season is all about creating soft and intimate moments for you. Documenting this journey of motherhood, fatherhood and your growing family, is where my heart is.
I specialize in natural, lifestyle photography in the Lincoln and Omaha, Nebraska area. Whether we are in my studio (Cedar + Sage Studio) or at a gorgeous outdoor location, my approach to these sessions is casual and light-hearted. I want you to remember this special time and celebrate every single milestone along the way.
