An experience that is

Personal + Attentive

 

Your baby's first birthday only happens once. Between planning the party, choosing a theme, and juggling everyday life, you already have enough on your plate. I'm here to make celebrating this milestone easy by creating a completely custom cake smash experience from start to finish.

​

Families choose Milk & Honey Photo Co. for their child's first birthday pictures because:

​

✓  Specialized child photographer with 12 years of experience

✓  Custom-designed cake smash sets created just for their child

✓ Private home-based studio specifically designed for newborns, children and families

✓  A clean, timeless photography style that never goes out of fashion

✓  Collections designed to fit a variety of needs and budgets

✓  Guidance every step of the way

✓  High-quality edited images you'll love for years

​​

How does it all work?

​

Cake Smash sessions take place in my private studio located in my Crown Point home. 

​

I handle the design, the cake (accommodations made for food allergies), the photography and of course, the setup and clean up.  Parents provide all clothing worn during sessions. 

​

Encore and Sweet & Simple Collections need at least 1 week planning time and Signature Custom Collections require at least 3 weeks. 

​

1.  Phone Consult.  After you have completed a contact form at the end of this page, I will connect with you to select a date and schedule a phone consult.  Here is where we will plan out all the details of your session!

​

2. Booked.  After our call you will receive a confirmation email with your session details and a link to review and sign the Portrait Agreement and a Booking Fee request.  Booking fees are $100, non-refundable, but they do go toward the balance of your session.  Session balances are due the day of your session.  

​

3.  Photo Session.  This is where the fun happens!  We are going to play, sing, clap, smash and sometimes splash all in an effort to capture your child's playful personality and innocent joy.  Don't wear your Sunday best, moms and dads typically end up sticky and wet when it's all over, but don't worry...it's all in good fun.  I promise it's all worth it! 

​

4.  Final Product.  After your session, you will receive a link to an online gallery.  Here you can see all the fun we captured during your session and choose the ones you just can't live without.   Final galleries can take 2-3 weeks depending on the time of year.
