Vanessa Keo Photography offers calm, posed newborn photography experience for families across New Hampshire as an experienced NH newborn photographer based in Merrimack. I provide a fully guided studio or in-home experience focused on safety, comfort, and creating timeless newborn portraits.
Those first days with your baby pass quietly and quickly. This season is fleeting, often remembered in fragments, yet deeply felt. My work takes place in the first 15 days after birth and is centered on preserving these early moments with intention and care, creating refined newborn portraits you’ll return to for decades as your family grows.
With years of experience working exclusively with newborns and families, each session is approached with patience and technical care. Posed newborn photography requires an understanding of comfort, safety, and timing, allowing your baby to be photographed in a way that feels natural, supported, and never rushed. For this reason, sessions are limited to only one per day, making it very important to book in advance to guarantee availability.
Newborn photography should never feel rushed or overwhelming. Every session is slow-paced and carefully guided, with gentle posing that keeps your baby comfortable and secure.

I offer posed newborn photography in both my studio and in your home.

Whether in studio or at home, every pose is designed to feel natural and safe, never forced or uncomfortable.
