We here at C. R Newman Photography just absolutely adore Lindsey!!! {And were so happy to finally meet Dave after all these years!} Clint and I first photographed Lindsey about 5 years ago in our makeshift studio when we were "hobbiest" photographers. Things have come a long way since then but its always so amazing to see and photograph the people who were among the first to stand in front of our camera! Lindsey is no longer living in Florida as the military has a way of moving people around, but when she told me they would be coming down for vacation and wanted to do a maternity shoot with us I was thrilled!! She was absolutely glowing and Dave was the perfect husband :) I love the variety of images we captured during this session. Lindsey requested "whimsical" and according to her "we nailed it!" - SCORE! I can't wait to meet the little guy when he makes his appearance in a few shorts months :) Congrats to this wonderful couple! We love you!

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!
Meet the Armstrong family!!! I just loved photographing them!! They were absolutely open to any idea I had and these kids were amazing! Chloe smiled on cue and Ty gave his signature "model stare" and I can't resist the adorable brother/sister kiss going on! {Not so sure they wanted to see mommy and daddy kiss though} I love when a family is open to my creative ideas and isn't afraid to try something new. A lot of times family photographs come off looking a bit "plain Jane" but you won't find that here! I like action shots, candid "caught in the moment" shots, and most definitely the love and bond of parents and children captured in real time. Thanks for a great shoot guys! Looking forward to seeing you again soon for your generation session with the whole gang! :)
Sienna, otherwise known as, little Miss Personality! The last time I photographed Sienna she was 6 months old...now she is a year and a half and is still full of the same joy and has the best smile and expressions! I just love watching kids grow up in front of my camera :) The best part of this session, besides how incredibly adorable she is {of course} is the love that this family has for her! Grandma and Grandpa came along, as well as mom, and they all just adore this precious child. I love to see true love <3 Grandpa ran around with Sienna chasing him and she just laughed and laughed and laughed. Makes for some priceless photos and memories. Thanks for another great session guys!
Boy oh boy...these kids were too much fun!!! And I've gotta give all of them credit for being willing to go barefoot in soaking wet grass! The spot I picked for photos had gorgeous morning light coming through the trees, but as it was still shaded, no sun had touched it yet to dry up the morning dew. We all went barefoot {including me!} and had a great time running through the grass. The kiddies didn't mind at all and they were all amazing. This session was especially fun because we had five kids, all under the age of 7! Mom and dad jumped in for a few but this morning was all about these gorgeous kiddies and their young spirit and joy :)
Last year we did Blake's newborn session-he was just as cute as can be! And now he has turned ONE and we got together to photograph him again :) Mom, Andrea, worked hard behind me dancing and singing to get Blake to smile and laugh. He had moments of pure excitement and that was my cue to click, click, click! I love these photos of him looking so joyful and full of life. They brought along some fun props too-great job guys!! Happy birthday to Blake and thanks for letting me be a part of his journey through life!
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!
What a sweet and loving family this is!!! I am so happy that we finally were able to schedule a session after months of talking and planning :) I am happy to have met this wonderful crew. It was absolutely freezing outside but these kids hung in there! Little Miss was just amazing....she posed her little booty off and didn't stop smiling for the whole session. I was incredibly impressed with not only her smiling abilities, but also her kindness to me and her little brother. And we can certainly thank the Heavens for a beautiful sky and sunset!
Oh, the Evans family!!! I just love these little girlies :) Oldest daughter, Emma, has a piece of my heart-thats for sure! I had the honor of being her nanny for a short while last year and she is one that is easy to love. It was great being able to catch up with the whole family during their photo shoot. They are all so easy going and free spirited-I think the photos definitely capture their true essence. Sisterly love at its finest <3
Its always a unique experience being able to photograph your own family, and these four are no strangers to being in front of my camera! Clint and I have had the privilege of photographing Shelby, Brian, Colt and Brantley numerous times over the past few years. From Christmas pictures and family portraits, to newborn and one-year-old sessions...we've been a part of it all!! For this session, they decked themselves out in flannel and kicked off their shoes for a lake front photo shoot! The cool fall air had decided to turn the leaves on the property from green to yellow and red-I love the look of cool autumn air in these images! We love you guys!
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
Joanna, Tim and Alex are expecting a new addition any day now!! The count down has begun :) What an adorable little family, right?? I loved the outfits that Joanna picked out for everone, take note everyone-this is a great color scheme for photo shoots! This session flew by with ease and I was so impressed with how amazing little Alex was at taking direction and smiling on cue, he was a pleasure to photograph (and mom and dad were not so bad themselves)! We can't wait to meet baby Zachary when we do his newborn photos in a few weeks!
Meet Skylar, a 6 month old baby girl with the most gorgeous little face! We did Skylar's newborn photos and were very honored to be able to do her next set of photos as well! We spent three hours together shooting several different looks from simple head shots to dolled up beauty queen...and she rocked all of them! Near the end of the session we discovered exactly what she needed to be perfectly content and happy: sitting barefoot in the grass! Mom, Lauren, laid in front of her blowing wind in her face as she laughed and laughed and laughed. What a great ending to our session! I just can't get enough of Skylar and her beautiful eyes and precious lips. As if I haven't blown up your newsfeed on facebook enough with her face, here are more!!! Enjoy :)
Two kids with absolutely massive amounts of JOY!!! We had a blast running around in a field of wild flowers, pretending to be super heroes, and smelling the beautiful spring time flowers. We didn't get them to stand still often, but when we did they were just precious! Thats not to say they were not precious when they were running around...just look at how happy they were the whole time! This shoot is a reminder that you should never take things too seriously, and when life gives you flowers-play in them!! :) Happy Easter everyone!
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!
We had the most beautiful weather this weekend, didn't we?? Perfect for shooting this wonderful little family!!! Little Brennon and Thor were so full of energy, it was just a good time watching them run around and play! Ann Marie told me that they wouldn't last long during our photo session but we were determined to capture some amazing images of their true energy and love of life :) These photos were taken just north of Brooksville; an adorable little getaway positioned on top of one of the highest hills in Florida!
