Maternity, Newborn, And Motherhood Photography

Welcome to Vanessa Underwood Photography's portfolio.

Hola to all the beautiful souls out there! I specialize in newborn, maternity, family, and motherhood photography, capturing emotion-forward moments with a curated yet natural approach, based in Amarillo, Texas. From in-home lifestyle newborn sessions to intentional studio portraits near downtown Amarillo, my work is rooted in connection, comfort, and timeless storytelling.

Each image you see here is created with care, designed to feel artful, honest, and heirloom-worthy, documenting love and life in its most meaningful seasons.
