Northwest Indiana Newborn Photographer

Soft + Natural Studio Newborn Photography

The first days with your baby are special, tender, and unbearably fast!

 

At Milk & Honey Photo Co., Newborn Sessions are designed to slow time just a little—so you can remember how tiny they were, how perfectly they fit in your arms, and how this whole adventure began.

Based in Crown Point, Indiana, I specialize in natural, soft, and heartfelt newborn photography that focuses on connection, comfort, and authenticity. Whether you’re welcoming your first baby or adding to a growing family, your session will be calm, safe, and completely tailored to you.

The Newborn Experience

An experience that is

Personal + Attentive

 

You deserve newborn photos that feel calm, safe, and stress-free.

 

My studio space is private and located in my Crown Point home.  Here are some things you can expect:

  • Temperature-controlled for newborn comfort

  • Clean, quiet, and comfortable

  • A full collection of wraps, props, and creative styling

  • Focus on safety, comfort, and timeless images

Your baby’s safety is always the top priority...

With 11 years of experience, I am highly skilled at handling and posing newborns and follow best practices to ensure every session is comfort-first and baby-led, carefully posed with proper support at all times, warm, clean, and sanitized between sessions and adapted to your baby’s needs and temperament

If your baby prefers to stay swaddled or needs extra breaks, that’s completely okay—beautiful images come from patience, not perfection.

If you’re a first-time parent wondering: ​ What if my baby won’t sleep? What should we bring? How does this even work?

​​

You’re exactly who this experience is designed for!

I guide you through the entire newborn photography process—from booking to gallery delivery—so you never feel overwhelmed or unsure.

 

You don’t need to plan outfits or props for baby, know how to pose your baby, or understand complicated photography packages

Just show up. I’ll take care of the rest.

How Does it all Work?

Babies are photographed in-studio within the first 10 days of birth.  

​Parents are encouraged to book their session 2-3 months before their due date.  Because of the nature of newborn photography, I can only take a set number of babies per month, and I want to make sure I am available for you.

1.  Phone Consult.  After you have completed a contact form, I will connect with you to schedule a phone consult.  Here is where we will plan out all the details of your session and set a date that is based on your due date.

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!  Get ready to engage, connect and capture some wonderful memories! Don't know what to do?  No worries, I will be there to direct and prompt and make sure you always look your best. 

​​

4.  Final Product.  Within a week of your session, you will receive a link to an online photo gallery.  These are your Proofs.  Here you can see all the images we captured during your session and choose the ones you'd like to keep for your final gallery.  After your choices are final, I will complete the retouching process and send your gallery back to you for download.  Final galleries can take 1-2 weeks depending on the time of year.
