Nieshka was fabulous. This review is long overdue.
I took my newborn to her after another photographer stopped responding to me. Nieshka responded immediately and was able to squeeze me in for an appointment for newborn photos. Her in-home studio is fabulous, and she followed COVID-19 protocols. She has every color prop you can imagine. You will be so pleased!
Unfortunately, my son was very fussy and cried a lot. Nieshka was still able to capture some gorgeous shots of him. She worked so well with him.
I am hoping to have her take his six-month photos because she was awesome!

Nieshka is a wonderful and extremely professional photographer who knows what she is doing. Her studio is super clean, modern, inviting and she has tons of props to shoot with. She was extremely caring and gentle with our daughter while she changed her, soothed her and got her in the cutest poses for the photos. Photos came out perfectly. Very high quality and editing was exactly what we asked for. Highly recommended. Hopefully when our daughter turns 1 we can go back and shoot some more.

I took my little one for new born photo shoot on her 12th day. I was scared and nervous as I am first time mom but Nieshka made it easy for us. She was so caring and worked wonders with my little one. She handles kids with so much care and treats them with utmost tenderness. She took all the covid precautions and sanitized often. New mommies out there !! Without any hesitation you can bring your kiddos here

We had an absolutely wonderful and safe time with Nieshka during our newborn photoshoot in early February 2021!! She uses a separate studio that is dedicated to shoots, professionally set up with more fabric and prop variety than you can imagine. During Covid, Nieshka was extremely accommodating and had numerous safety protocols in place: constant masking, frequent hand washing and sanitization, disposable one-use sheets , and gloves.
Nieshka is also VERY good with newborns; our baby is one who somehow doesn't sleep immediately after feeding, but Nieshka had multiple tricks up her sleeve

Nieshka is an amazing photographer with great skills. From the moment we met up she met my husband and I outside and offered to help with anything we needed to carry. Her studio is at her home but has a separate entrance and is super cute and welcoming. She wore her mask at all times and constantly used hand sanitizer while handling my baby girl. Her studio temperature was perfectly warm. She was able to dress/undress/swaddle my little one without waking her and handled her with extreme care. Her collection of swaddles, headbands, and props are extremely cute! Her turn around time for edits is

I haven't written a Yelp review in 16 years, but my experience with Nieshka was so positive, I have to share it. I never thought I would get professional newborn photos done and tried taking my own at home (disaster), but after seeing my friend's Happy Me photos, I knew the result would be worth it. Nieshka was responsive, extremely patient, professional, and respectful of health & safety. She is not only a newborn baby whisperer but was even able to handle my two year old daughter who hates taking pictures. The end results were simply beautiful, including the sibling photos (gasp

Where do I start? Nieshka is an amazing person and great at what she does. She was very quick in responding to my emails. I was very concerned and hesitant to do photoshoot for my baby girl due to COVID. But I didn't want to regret not capturing my newborn's early days!! As soon as I reached Nieshka's place, all my worries went away. She follows all the COVID protocols and is very very careful. She was very patient and loving with my baby.
She has great collection of dresses, props, accessories etc. I and my husband are very satisfied with the photos !! I would highly recommend

Although I've been wanting to get the newborn pictures taken ever since I was pregnant, due to COVID, I've been hesitant and had given up on doing the photoshoot for safety reasons. That went out the window when our daughter was born and I didn't want to regret not capturing these precious moments. I started looking for a photographer when our baby was already 5 weeks old (which is late for a newborn photoshoot) and most photographers would not accept an older newborn. I came across Nieshka's photos and fell in love with them...I emailed her with not much hope, but she responded

Everything was so clean and organized... she handled my baby with so much care, I actually learned a few things from her while there which I appreciated.. she was so helpful to me, my baby and my partner... she had so patience... my pictures came out so beautiful.. I will definitely use her services again... thank you again Nieshka... you are a blessing to this industry..

We have recently visited the studio for newborn photoshoot. Because of COVID times, we were worried and skeptical about the idea of photoshoot in these times. But it was such a safe and pleasant experience, I felt I should share my experience here.
Safety - Studio was very well maintained. Couch was covered with disposable sheets. Nieshka was sanitizing her hands frequently, especially every time before touching the baby. We were asked to wear masks all the time. All the covid safety protocols were thoroughly followed.
Space - Place was clean and very well organized.
Convenience - Right after

Nieshka is extremely talented and works like a magician with the babies. My baby was so calm and slept thru the entire session. Her studio is so cozy and she gives you so many prop options to choose from. To begin with i was extremely skeptical about getting a photo shoot done amid Covid times, but was impressed to see her covid guidelines. Not to mention the final pictures came out so gooood, 10/10 for sure in terms of quality, cleanliness and the way my baby was handled. So glad I went with her.

Highly recommend Nieshka. We were very late on our newborn pictures but Nieshka told us she had no issues with a 8 week old while some photographers told us it was too late for a newborn session. Our biggest concern was obviously precautions for Covid but Nieshka sent us a form with all the things she does to make it a safe environment as well as precautions she wanted us to take. She was great with our baby and the studio was amazing. She had diapers/wipes ready if you forget them, also a white noise machine to keep the baby calm. Our pictures came out amazing and she was great about communication

Nieshka was absolutely amazing during our recent photography session with our 3.5 month old. She was warm, friendly, professional and made the entire experience from start to finish very comfortable, especially during Covid. She pays great attention to detail from the temperature of the room (warmer for infants), lighting, poses, and has a wide variety of high quality set ups/outfits/color options. She was very sweet (singing songs, etc) with our baby to help get some more smiles and I would recommend her to any new parent for photographs. She captured some truly precious expressions and moments

Nieshka went above and beyond to capture our newborn baby boy's photos! She did everything right - placed shades over the windows, played white noise, and turned on the heater to make the baby as comfortable and cozy as possible. She had a wide variety of options as far as cloth textures and colors for the backdrops, wraps and hats - I love her rustic style. Nieshka took more time to take additional photos and even helped us adjust our carseat. I will definitely be booking her for 6 month + photos. Highly recommend!

Nieshka was absolutely wonderful. Our little guy was not being very cooperative and didn't want to go to sleep for the photos- she took her time and was incredibly patient with him to get him to cooperate. The photos turned out perfectly and we couldn't be happier. If you're looking for a great newborn photographer, I highly recommend Happy Me!

Nieshka is absolutely amazing! I booked a mini baby milestone session for my daughters cake smash photos and it was truly above my expectations. Nieshka made us feel so welcomed from the beginning and ensured to capture my vision in the photos. The space was extremely clean and cozy for our daughter and made the entire session run smoothly. She was very gentle and made every effort to make our daughter feel comfortable the entire session. It usually takes my daughter a few minutes to warm up to strangers, but she immediately liked Nieshka's vibe which says a lot about her ability to work with babies

Absolutely recommend! My friend recommended me to go happymephotography, I like her daughters Newborn pics, so I decided to book her for my new born baby. The studio is nice and new, room temperature is high enough so the baby won't get cold. By the time when we do the shooting, baby was too excited so he couldn't fall asleep, Nieshka was so professional to calm the baby and take absolutely great pics. Just recieved the high resolution pics today. Cannot wait to post on my on social media, Love all the pics! Will totally recommend to everyone who wants to get their newborn photography

We did a newborn photoshoot with Happy Me Photography a few months ago and boy was I impressed. Nieshka "The Baby Whisperer" is extremely patient and nurturing with our colic baby and surprisingly our baby was so well behave with her. She spent 4 full hours with us in her home studio and was so professional and welcoming.
The photos were amazing and we received so many compliments from our friends and family. If you want a great experience with the most beautiful photographs, I highly recommend Nieshka!

Nieshka was so accommodative in doing a photoshoot for my baby on a weekend as we couldn’t find anything on her calendar. The photoshoot was great and I loved her choice of color tones on the set and her dresses. The pictures came out really well. Money well spent and I would definitely be returning back for my baby’s one year shoot.

As first-time parents, my husband and I were on the fence about whether to have professional newborn photos taken of our daughter, especially considering the cost. We decided these moments were too precious not to capture, so a few weeks before I was scheduled to be induced, we looked to Yelp for recommendations. Nieshka of Happy Me Photography promptly replied to our inquiry and we lucked out as she was available during the time we expected our baby girl to arrive.
My husband and I were very impressed with how wonderful Nieshka was, not only with her photography skills, but how she handled our

I have had the pleasure of working with Nieshka for the past 5 years. I did maternity, newborn, and holiday portraits with her. Now we take our daughter's birthday portraits with her and recommend her to everyone we know. She is friendly, punctual and professional. She does an excellent job with kids and takes the time to get comfortable with them before the photo session.
Highly-qualified. Highly-recommended. If you are looking for a professional photographer in the Bay Area/ Peninsula area you should give her a call. You will not be disappointed!!!
