Hi, nice to meet you! I’m Vanessa Carvalho, a journalist and photographer since 2007. Born in São Paulo, I’ve lived an unforgettable chapter in Barcelona, Spain, and now New York is my home. But Brazil is always close to my heart, and I’d be thrilled to meet you and be part of your story.
I’m passionate about adventure and storytelling through my camera. Capturing unique moments in a light, relaxed, and special way is what I love the most.
Here in New York, I offer personalized photo sessions tailored to each client. I specialize in individual portraits, couples, families, corporate headshots, fashion editorials, and events. My goal is to create a fun, relaxed, and unforgettable experience, ensuring every photo reflects your essence and tells your unique story.
I can’t wait to meet you and turn your dreams into timeless memories through my lens. Let’s create something magical together in New York!

You choose 3, 4, or more locations, and we will follow a personalized itinerary, walking, taking the subway, and capturing fun and relaxed photos with New York’s best scenery.

Photo editing includes adjustments to lighting, color, and texture.

For our sessions in New York, transportation is provided via the subway. However, if you prefer, I have partnerships with Brazilian drivers, and the transportation costs will be the responsibility of the client.
Travel time between locations is included in the session time. Transportation between locations, as well as any tickets and admission fees for attractions (including for the photographer and any assistants or other professionals included in the package), must be covered by the client.
