NH Newborn Photographer
Those first two weeks pass quickly. Let them be documented beautifully, and without stress.
I'm Vanessa, a newborn photographer in Merrimack, New Hampshire. I create calm, posed newborn portraits in my private home studio or in the comfort of your home, for families across Southern New Hampshire and the North Shore of Massachusetts.
You don't have to plan a thing. I guide every detail, from what to wear to your finished portraits, so you can rest, recover and simply be with your baby.

A calm, fully guided experience
Here's what to expect. You won't be asked to figure out poses, props or outfits. I bring a curated collection of wraps, outfits and neutral props, and with the Silver and Gold collections I guide parents and siblings through every family portrait. Sessions move at your baby's pace. If baby needs to feed, we pause. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is forced.

Safety comes first
Every pose I use is chosen for your baby's safety and comfort, and a parent is always within reach. The room stays warm, around 78 to 80°F, so your baby stays cozy and sleepy.
