Are you delivering at Lexington Medical Center in West Columbia, SC? Then you may have already heard—from a friend or a nurse—that you’ll receive a complimentary newborn session right in the hospital. And yes, it’s most likely true. You can even browse some of the recent photos on the hospital’s website:
LexMed Newborn Gallery
Some of those babies? Absolutely adorable.
But let’s be honest—once that gallery link lands in your inbox, you might feel guilty not buying the photos. Even if they’re not really your style. You might think, “They’re not perfect… but it’s my baby.” And next thing you know, you’ve spent anywhere from $150 to $340. Maybe your mother-in-law offers to cover it. Maybe you just want to freeze this moment before it slips away.
But here’s what I don’t love about those photos:
You’re not in them.
They don’t show your story.
Not really.
The first days after birth are sacred. You’re falling in love. You’re discovering this tiny human you’ve waited months to meet. You’re counting fingers and toes, memorizing their features, and breathing in that sweet, fresh-from-heaven newborn scent.
And in those moments, you matter too.
The way your husband looks at you holding your baby.
The way you hold each other—tired, emotional, overwhelmed, and so full of love.
The soft curls on your baby’s head before their first bath. The crinkle in their nose when they yawn.
That’s why a Fresh 48 session is such a beautiful investment.
It’s not just about hospital photos—it’s about documenting the beginning of your family’s new chapter.
If you’re already thinking of spending a few hundred dollars, why not choose something that reflects your love, your connection, your story?
I would be so honored to be the one who captures that for you.
Let’s plan a Fresh 48 session at Lexington Medical Center and make sure these memories are preserved just the way you lived them—real, raw, and full of love.
Send me a message and let’s talk.
I can’t wait to meet you and your brand new little love.
