Why we ranked them

Why we chose Courtney Lee Photography

Courtney Lee spent years behind the scenes in product photography, graphic design, and marketing before deciding her actual favorite subject was families -- a shift she credits partly to becoming a mother herself. Working out of Pelham, she now spends her days photographing maternity, newborn, and milestone sessions across the southern tier of New Hampshire, with Salem listed among the towns she regularly serves alongside Windham, Derry, and Londonderry. Her newborn approach avoids a strict pose list; instead she follows the baby's rhythm, building in time for feeding and soothing so nothing feels rushed. Sessions can happen at a family's home, outdoors, or in her Pelham studio space, depending on what a Salem family prefers. What comes through in her portfolio is a preference for warmth over polish -- images that read as documentary rather than staged, with parents' hands, tired smiles, and half-asleep babies treated as the point rather than something to edit out. Having two young daughters of her own gives her sessions an easy, lived-in quality; she isn't performing patience with a fussy newborn, she's genuinely used to it. For Salem families comparing studio-heavy newborn photographers against a more relaxed, at-home style, Courtney Lee's background in visual storytelling combined with her own parenting experience makes her a distinct option worth considering.
