“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”

~Aaron Siskind 

Hello and welcome to my photo blog. I am Leslie Crabtree, photographer and owner of Crabtree Photography. Photography started out as a hobby for me after my daughter was born but quickly turned into a passion. As a photographer I strive to share your vision and bring it to life through my photographs. I will do whatever it takes to make sure you enjoy your photographs, and more importantly your memories, for years to come. I am a studio and on location photographer currently serving the Southern Illinois area.
