Crabtree Family - Portraits

I L-O-V-E being able to photograph my family and their family! It's moments like these that make my job so special. When you are with the Crabtree's, there is ALWAYS laughter! My cousins welcomed their newest little girl this year, and man they have the most precious girls!!

Baby Victor - Newborn Lifestyle Session

This little boy was ready to come into the world! Victor was early, and boy did he make a grand "surprise" appearance! 

I couldn't get enough of his sweetness. He was so good for the camera... he is a natural rockstar! Congratulations, Amanda and Phillip, on your handsome baby boy! 

Amanda said, "YES!" - Proposal Jacksonville Zoo

This was the sweetest proposal! Matt had it all planned out. It was a bright and beautiful afternoon at the zoo. I staked out in the bushes at the penguin exhibit until Amanda and Matt arrived. I know I looked silly... the kids playing nearby agreed. But hey, its part of the job! :)

I don't know if Matt was nervous, but I was anxious for him! Anxious with excitement for sure. I think it's because in that one moment, your life and relationship takes that next exciting step. I couldn't wait to document it! As you can see in the photos, Amanda's smile was priceless and the two of them were gleaming with happiness!

Congratulations again to Amanda and Matt!
