Hoag Hospital Newborn Photographer – Fresh 48

Hoag Hospital Newborn Photographer – Fresh 48

Gilmore Studios has been a Hoag Hospital Newborn photographer for years now! The Fresh 48 newborn session is one of our favorites. After baby arrives, we capture moments with the family during the first 2 days of life. It’s a nice alternative to the live birth session- for those who don’t a photographer in the room during delivery! Live birth sessions are amazing, but timing can be tricky. Sometimes labor can go on forever, so it’s difficult for us to show up at the perfect time. The Fresh 48 makes photos much easier on mom, too. Mothers can get their much needed rest and bonding time with baby before we bother her with photos. It’s also a great way to document brothers and sisters meeting baby as well.

Hoag Hospital Baby Photography Session

Hoag Hospital is home for the Gilmores’. We have had all three of our children there and Jennifer volunteers for a charity organization there as well. When scheduling your Fresh 48 session, simply give us your due date and pay your session fee of $350. The studio will keep in touch with your progress to make sure Jennifer will be able to meet you and your family at the hospital. Many of our moms add a studio newborn session, bringing the total to $450 for both sessions ($100 savings).

Documenting every baby milestone!

Everyone will tell you, enjoy these moments- they go by very quickly! This family took this advice and we love how they continue to document everything! Check out their maternity session!

Do you have a personality portrait hanging in your home? 🤍

It’s not about perfect smiles or matching outfits.

It’s about capturing who your child actually IS right now.

Their expressions.
The way they laugh.
Their personality in this exact season of life.

I started doing these with my own kids and honestly… they’ve become some of my favorite things hanging in our home.

I update them yearly and one day, my plan is to have their future family personality photo hanging on the wall. 

These aren’t just photos for now.

They become part of your family story.

Personality Portrait Sessions are available May 12th through June.

Comment PERSONALITY and I’ll send you all the information, available dates, and booking link directly in your DMs.
Prom fashion in 2026 just hits different.

The colors.
The textures.
The dresses with movement.
The perfectly fitted suits.

And somehow every friend group has their own vibe this year.

Honestly? Prom photos have turned into full-on fashion shoots and I’m not mad about it.

Unique locations for a senior session.

If you want your photos to feel different… start here.

Museums
Industrial, bold, and full of character. Clean lines and colors.
Aircraft, hangars, and metal textures that create a strong, unique backdrop you won’t get anywhere else.

Disney World / Disneyland
Color, movement, personality.
It turns your session into an experience, not just photos.

Here’s how I approach locations like this:
We don’t just pick something “unique”… we pick something that actually fits you. Your style, your energy, and how you want your photos to feel.

Because the right location doesn’t just look good…
it makes your photos feel like you.
