Welcoming baby at hoag hospital newport beach: a fresh 48 session


There’s something so sacred about the first 48 hours after birth—the quiet, the awe, the overwhelming love. This Fresh 48 newborn session at Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach, California, was the perfect blend of softness and simplicity. The real, fleeting moments of a brand new life.


Fresh 48 sessions are done within the first two days after birth, typically right at the hospital. They’re ideal for families who want to remember the very beginning—the wrinkly toes, the hospital bracelet, those sleepy snuggles with mom and dad. This beautiful baby girl was just hours old, wrapped in a soft swaddle, surrounded by love and light pouring in through the hospital windows.


For Newport Beach families seeking a luxury photography experience, Fresh 48 sessions offer an authentic, documentary-style approach to newborn photography—without the need to pack up and leave the comfort of your postpartum room. Everything is gentle, unrushed, and intentional.


As a lifestyle newborn photographer serving Orange County, I specialize in creating artful, heartfelt imagery that reflects your family’s unique story. Whether you’re welcoming your first baby or your fourth, these early moments deserve to be preserved with care and elegance.
