Vanessa Gomes Photography

Hello Hello 🙌

It’s been a while since I’ve shown my face.
My name is Vanessa and I’m the one behind the camera 🌻

Some facts about myself:
✨I was born in Portugal but I’ve been living in the UK for the past 11 years
✨ I live in West Sussex with Alex and my son Martin who is nearly 1yo (wow, time goes fast)!
✨I opened my studio in Billingshurst in January 2024. I can’t wait to create more magic there 💕
✨I am a part-time Paediatric Audiologist for the NHS. I love to help children to hear better!
✨I love to spend time with family and friends.
✨I love to travel to new places and meet new people and cultures
✨I am a dog person but I will not approach one until I know they are very friendly🐶
✨I’m a lover of the sun, the beach and the mountains. I love the outdoors! 🌞👙🌴

I think that’s enough about me. 😁

If you’re new here, thank you for following and supporting my work. I really appreciate it 🌈
If you’re having a session with me this year, I can’t wait to meet you! 🤍🤍

We miss you Michel. And we always will.✨
1 year ago we had the saddest of the news. We lost a dad, a partner, a brother, a friend, a colleague... You left us far too early... 💔
It’s hard to find the words to describe how I feel. I think about your family and how much they must miss you. You are irreplaceable...

We will always remember the Michel that we could always count on, the numerous phone calls asking “Hey Michel, I had this crazy idea for Alex’s birthday, are you in?” and the answer would always be Yes. Even if the party would be in another country, travelling by car, plane, whatever. It did not matter. You were always there... 🤍
I’ve met you 10 years ago, in Birmingham where it all started! You were so easy... Easy to be around, happy, a good friend!

You’ll forever be missed. ☀️☀️
Sending lots of love to your family and hoping that these photos bring some comfort to their heart on this day 🤍

🐣Little fingers, little toes and cute little ears.
So many things to capture during a newborn photography session. ❤️✨

Without photographs, who would remember all these details? There’s so much going on in everyone’s lives and photography gives us that power. The power to remember small things that actually in the long term, are quite big and important. ☀️

Capture everything.
Doesn’t matter how you look like or even if you don’t look your best, don’t let that take away that special moment that can be remembered forever. 🙌

Can we take a moment to just recognise how amazing Elizabeth was for her brother’s newborn session? 🙌✨

They came all together and this little cutie stayed with us until the end and at the very end, we even got some photos of her and her brother together 🥹

Plus she’s only 3yo! 🥹

I was like 😱😱 she’s so good!
Please Elizabeth come to visit more often, it was a pleasure to have you and your family in the studio. 💕💕

📸Still going through this gallery, I’ve got so many favourites that is taking a while to get them all ready. However, I do not rush this part and I go back and go back again to make sure I am happy with the gallery. 🤩
x I can’t wait to show it all to you 🥹

✨ Capturing the Purest Love ✨

I am beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to capture this pure love in my studio. 📸✨ The first week of a newborn's life is truly magical, and I had the privilege of capturing every tiny detail of this precious soul.

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to stephens.x for entrusting me with this incredible task and for taking the time to visit my studio. Your presence and trust meant the world to me. 💕

💖 To all the incredible mothers out there, I wanted to take a moment to remind you how truly important it is to have photographs with your child. These snapshots don't just serve as memories frozen in time; they form beautiful proof of the unconditional love and bond you share with your little ones. 👩‍👧‍👦✨ Every giggle, every snippet of bedtime storytelling, every comforting hug... these moments that seem ordinary today will become the most cherished treasures in the years to come. By documenting these heartfelt connections through photographs, we ensure that the love and joy we give to our children remain eternally captured and celebrated. 🥰💫

✨ As mothers, we often find ourselves behind the camera, capturing happy smiles, milestones, and family adventures. But it's equally essential for us to step in front of the lens and exist in those precious frames. When we allow ourselves to be photographed alongside our children, we leave a tangible legacy that speaks about our unconditional affection. In those images, our children will always find the reassurance that their childhoods were filled with an abundance of love and warmth. So, dear mamas, don't shy away from these beautiful moments. Embrace the joy and let someone else capture the love between you and your child – for these pictures will forever remind us that we were there, part of their journey, and that our love has no bounds. 📷💞✨

🌸 A Mother's Love Blooms 🌸

💕 Oh, what a miracle it is, this journey of becoming a mother. The day we hold our precious first baby in our arms, our hearts overflow, and a love like no other blossoms within us. 💕

🌼 From the moment of that first hello, our lives are changed forever. We witness the world in a whole new light as we cradle our little one against our chest, feeling their delicate breath against our skin. The bond that forms between a mother and her first baby is indescribable – a connection that words can't truly capture. 🌼

🌷 Through sleepless nights and endless feedings, we find strength we never knew we possessed. The tiredness melts away when we catch a glimpse of their tiny smile or witness their first steps into this big, wide world. Every milestone, no matter how small, becomes a triumph, filling our hearts with overwhelming joy. 🌷

🌸 And oh, the laughter that fills our homes! Their giggles bring light to the darkest of days, making every worry vanish in an instant. We dance silly dances, read bedtime stories, and kiss away their tears, cherishing every moment we spend together. 🌸

💕 As mothers, we find strength in our vulnerability. We carry the weight of the world on our shoulders, yet we always make room for one more hug, one more snuggle, one more ""I love you."" Our love knows no boundaries, and our selflessness knows no bounds. 💕

🌼 This is the journey of a mother and her first baby - an adventure filled with tears of tiredness, tears of joy, and so much unconditional love. We are forever grateful for the privilege of being called ""Mommy"" and for the honour of guiding our little ones along their path. 🌼

🌷 So, to all the beautiful mothers out there, may you always remember the beauty and purity of that very first moment of holding your baby close. Cherish these tender times, for they are the foundation of a bond that will last a lifetime. 🌷

🌸 To all the amazing mothers out there. You are cherished, loved, and appreciated beyond measure. 🌸

📸 Capturing Unforgettable Moments with Dad ❤️

Hey Insta fam, let's talk about the unsung heroes who often shy away from family photos - our amazing dads! 🙋‍♂️✨ It's a universal truth that most dads don't exactly jump at the opportunity to strike a pose and be captured on camera. But you know what? It's time to change that, because these moments matter!

We all know how effortlessly awesome dads are, always there to lend a helping hand and guide us through life's ups and downs. While they may prefer to stay behind the lens, it's incredibly important to include them in our family photoshoots, and here's why:

1️⃣ Cherished Memories: Every snapshot holds so much meaning, capturing heartfelt memories to be treasured for a lifetime. By including our dads in these moments, we are honouring their irreplaceable role in our lives. 💙

2️⃣ Time Flies: It feels like just yesterday we were kids, our dads playfully lifting us up or sneaking tickles to make us giggle. But time flies oh-so-fast, and as we grow older, family pictures become a poignant reminder of those beautiful, fleeting moments. ⏳

3️⃣ Inclusivity Matters: When we include our dads, we send a powerful message of love, appreciation, and solidarity. It showcases the importance of their presence and reinforces the unity that binds our family together. 🤝

4️⃣ Legacy in Focus: Family photos tell stories. They become a bridge between generations, creating a legacy that will be cherished by future family members. How incredible would it be for generations to come, to see our dads smiling proudly alongside their loved ones? 🌟

So let's gather our dads, make some magic together, and capture unforgettable memories that will put an everlasting smile on our faces. Trust me, when they see the joy that radiates from these photos, they'll realise just how vital their presence truly is. ❤️📷
