In NH3, H is less electronegative than N. Hence, the direction of dipole moment of each N-H bond is towards N and create high net dipole moment.

In NF3, F is more electronegative than N, thus the dipole moment of each N-F bond is directed towards F atom which is opposite to that of lone pair, hence reduces the net dipole moment.
