This maternity session was very special for me as I had the joy and privilage of photographing my oldest and dearest friend. Brandi and I met freshman year of highschool playing soccer {and having 4 out of 6 classes together!} and have been best friends ever since :) When I found out that Brandi and Trent were expecting a little bundle of joy I was through the moon! "I HAVE to shoot your maternity photos!" were the first words out of my mouth {after "OH MY GOSH!!!!! YAY!" - of course}. I couldn't be happier for these two and know that they will make the best parents. Baby Landon is one lucky little guy to have them as his parents, role models, friends, supporters, and most of all soccer instructors ;) haha but in all seriousness, congrats you guys. I love you both!

I just love this family!!! Some of the sweetest, most genuine people you will ever meet!! We had the honor of photographing their wedding in October and were thrilled when they came back for family photos at Christmas time! Sweet and southern was the theme, and they pull it off so well! A big THANK YOU to Tim for carrying crates and boxes through tall and thick grass for a good 200 yards! Awesome shoot locations take work sometimes! :) I'm just so thrilled with these images...absolutely adorable children and incredibly responsive! I've never had a one year old smile on cue so much during a session! Thanks for a great evening Lair family!
Skylar is ONE!! We have photographed this gorgeous little angel many times over the past year. We had the privilage of shooting her newborn photos, 6 month, 9 month {with her siblings!} and one year photos! She is just {absolutely stunning} and it has been so great watching her grow throughout her first year of life. I can remember sitting in front of a heater with her last year as we got her ready for her newborn session-this year I had to crawl around on the floor chasing her as she explored and scooted around the set. Amazing :) Skylar was a little afraid of the cake at first...Lauren and I had to force her to try it before she realized, "Hey, this is sugar!!" I'm so happy to be sharing C. R Newman Photography's very first "cake smash" session-we couldn't have been given a more beautiful model!
Say hello to the Ruskin family!!! I had the opportunity to photograph these adorable twin boys at the beginning of this year, and was so excited to be able to get them in front of my camera again! Originally we had a different location picked out, but {thankfully} the location became unusable so Stefani had the idea of using their amazing property for the backdrop! We loved having the opportunity to shoot somewhere completely different. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera in hand to capture the moments leading up to these amazing photos-it was a sight to be seen! Clint hopped on board the immoble tractor and steered as Dad, Jerry, pulled it behind his truck to position it where we needed it to be. The things we do to get the perfect shot! :)
How beautiful is this family! These kids have the most gorgeous eyes-and they get it from their momma {can't you tell}!!! I loved this location because we had two completely different scenes to work with. We started off with some country rustic-I like to call those kids "the travelers" :) I've been wanting to use that trunk for a long time and they fit perfectly along side it. We finished off the session on the beach as the sun went down....I adore how Becky dressed everyone, they look so darn cute! What a gorgeous sunset we had. I love having the privilege of photographing another photographer's family!
Meet the Hutchinson family!!! What a great group of people :) And proof that even if you don't want to have your picture taken, you can still end up having a fun time! {Right, David?} Even little Wilf {yes, the dog} had a good time! :) The boys were full of energy and smiled and laughed the whole time, despite being worn out from an earlier soccer match and having the bugs come out near the end of the session! I love these images because it actually looks like FALL in Florida! Who would have known we had that season, if even for a brief period of time! You guys were awesome-it was great meeting you all!
Oh, my Isabella :) I just love her so much!!! I am beyond thrilled to have my niece back in Florida so I can squeeze her, love her, and take beautiful pictures of her!! My sister brought this brilliant and adorable idea to me to shoot Bella reading her favorite books in an open field for her three-year-old photo shoot. And I gotta admit, I'm mighty jealous of her wardrobe styling-how amazing is that head band!? Bella did so great in the field despite the grass being incredibly pokey and itchy (for all of us)! I love how these photos turned out :)
My oh my, do children get any more beautiful? These kids come from some good genes, thats for sure! We were so honored to be able to photograph all three of them together just before the big move out of state! They left the sunshine state, but I hope that these yellow flowers on the walls of their new house keep a little Florida sun in their life :) Clint and I were thrilled to find this spot while just driving through a neighborhood one day and knew immediately it was the perfect location for these cuties! It took games, snacks and lots of energy to get the perfect shot...and I know I say it all the time...it was worth it! The smiles and laughter are just to die for! Thanks for letting us capture beautiful memories of your family! <3
Goodness gracious-I can't believe it!! Our nephew just turned O.N.E!!! Wasn't he just born!?! It is amazing how time files! When Shelby told me that she had the perfect outfit (consisting of a Wrangler diaper cover) picked out, I knew that Brantley was going to look beyond adorable! And he certainly was, even though he refuses to look directly at us for his picture! ;) We even got to play with some awesome animals!! Love this little man <3
Sweet little Sienna, the cutest chick around! I just died when I saw the outfit that Sienna's mom and grandmother had picked out for her, it just doesn't get any more adorable!! She wasn't too happy being outside in the heat, or being placed on hard cement (even though her puppy was close by!) so we decided to go ahead and move in side for our last look with her. And wallah! She was so happy wearing the outfit, even though it was a hat and socks in the middle of Florida's April! Playing with the booties and watching everyone behind me making her grin and laugh made for some undeniably cute shots of the world's cutest baby chick :) Thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful house, we loved meeting all of you!
I just love these two little boys, aren't they the cutest!?! And not just because they are my nephews ;) We absolutely love this location, it is the perfect outdoor rustic setting and the grass just glows beautifully as the sun slowly glides down behind the trees. I won't ever tell where it is! haha :) We had an adventure during this shoot with some battle wounds acquired and frantically blowing bubbles to get them into the shot, but in the end it was all worth it...just look at these photos! Priceless!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this family. They have so much energy and joy and it is just absolutely contagious! I have received the pleasure of spending time with the Evans family lately as a nanny for their oldest daughter, Emma. When they asked us to do their family photos this year I was both thrilled and a bit nervous! We really had to knock it out of the park with this one or I would have some awkward work days (just kidding, ha ha!). In the days leading up to their session, Emma and I talked about the shoot quite a bit, picked out outfits for her to wear, and discussed poses and even did runway walks (she wants to be a model)! It was a ton of fun! I am so happy with the portraits that we got of the girls; their true essence is captured wonderfully.
