What to wear for your Space Coast Fresh 48 Photo Session


Fresh 48 sessions are all about documenting those fresh, fleeting details of your time with baby in the hospital. Keeping your outfits cozy + comfortable is top priority for mamas who have just given birth. But, there are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to selecting outfits for your photos in order to ensure you get the light, airy look you see on my website!


Wearing lighter colors will help reflect flattering light onto you + baby during your hospital newborn photography session, and keeping your outfits neutral will ensure your outfits aren't distracting from your beautiful family connection! A matching pajama set or comfortable dress is a perfect option for mom, and a light wash denim or neutral sweatpant with a light t-shirt or henley is a great option for dad - I've linked a few options below to help you get started!
