Shelia Stone Photography bio picture

Ciao! Welcome to the blog-Upclose and Real

Sono Shelia!  To sum up...I am a mom that adores her little one, a navy wife and I gal that just loves her family and friends..Oh and this small little obession I have with Italy!  I am a lover of all things Italian.  The food.  The people.  The shoes.  The clothes that I will never be able to wear. The 4 hour mid-day breaks.  The slow life.  One day I will live there again.  And when I do you can bet my lens will go everywhere with me.  Because that is just what I do- document.  I document everything.  And that is what you will find here on this blog.  My journeys in life.  The day to day happenings here at the studio. My little one and all her glory. And of course images galore!!

There is no spell check or grammar check in my world.  My apologies up front.  If you like what you see, send me some love.  Comments make me smile and let me know I am not alone in this big big cyber world!  Plus, I just *love* meeting new folks! So don't be shy..I don't bite and neither will anyone else on this blogsphere..and if they do..I'll pull their hair!

Happy Monday All!!

Where o where have I been??  I my friends have a new man in my life.  One that has been taking up much of my time.  And before the gossip train takes off, he is fictional but all things all things Italian.  I am so excited to introduce him to you all.  But not just yet.  I have been working very hard on a little project that I am almost ready to launch.  His name is Antonio….

__________________

What else have I been doing..Sessions and LOTS of them!  It has been so much fun the last 2 weeks meeting all my great families, kiddos and babies!  You will have to wait to see them…For the next few blog post, it will be about travels and personal images.  See Antonio is a show off and he wants to show them himself.

Oh Tony got his orders!!! Hip Hip Hooray!!!  Thank you Mr Detail-er for sending those our way.  Finally we have direction and time-lines!  Good news he got his orders and we know what the next year will bring us..The bad news….it is now reality that we will be separated for an entire year and some.  He will be headed to the middle-east.  Just a few more months and off in a jet plane we go.

______________

With the above news…I will no longer be accepting family sessions.  I am completely booked for my stay here in Oki.  I can however accept 2 more newborn sessions.  If you are interested in a newborn session please send my an email.  These will be scheduled during the day at my home.

______________

Also with the news of the orders and deployment…I can not attend an AWESOME workshop with Skye that I already purchased.  Tony will be deploying during that time.  I posted about it last week.  My seat is available for purchase. 

She does not issue refunds but I can sell my seat to anyone that wants to attend.  The workshop is in Monroe LA at the end of March.  I paid $600 for the workshop which is a discount off the original price of $800 if you were to purchase them from her.  She was doing an early bird special when the workshop was first announced.  I can accept credit cards if needed, paypal, etc and am I willing to do a payment plan.

I hate the dentist…there is just something about sitting in a chair and someone chiselling around at my teeth that just creeps me out…I even had the nicest cleaning lady (I know that is not the correct title)..but she was so gentle and sweet..but I still hated it..So I am into day 5 of REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY good teeth hygiene so next time I can go in and they take one look and say…she is good to go!!   

_____________

Hope everyone a had fun Halloween…Em had lots of fun..she went out with her buddies and collected a large amount of calories that I am pretty sure will be on my thighs before the week is over….then off to a carnival with lots of games, bouncing houses and a not so scary haunted house…Here is my Em…I didn’t take the camera out with us..so hopefully her friends got some cool images!

 (image uploader is not working..will post images later from the day)

Have a great week!
