About the studio

Portraits that outlast the moment.

Milk + Lily is a boutique portrait studio in Walnut Creek. We photograph families, newborns, maternity, and milestones with a slow, editorial approach.

Our approach

We're a small, women-led team. Every session is unhurried, guided by natural light, and built around real connection. What matters most: portraits your family will pass down.

Made to be printed.

Every session ends in a private in-studio image reveal, where we help you choose wall art, albums, and print collections — finished in archival materials designed to last generations.

It felt less like a photo shoot and more like an afternoon with friends who happened to make the most beautiful pictures we've ever had of our family.
