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!

Hello World!

Saturday, December 6, 2008 Posted in Sneak Peeks

Hello World!  As you all rest peacefully sound asleep on your pillows, I can’t!  Why, becaaaauuuseeeee I am so freakin excited!  He is here..he is finally here!  My new man is ready for action!  We have had a love affair from the beginning.  I love his size, I love his features, I adore how he showcases all my imagery! 

Like all relationships it has been a give and take.  I want something, he doesn’t.  He wants something I don’t.  But in the end, I think we make a great team.  A place where I can show off all my wonderful clients, a place that is a wealth of information for all my new clients, a place to see what a session woud look like under the “IN THE SPOTLIGHT” section and most importantly a place to sit back and relax and listen to some great tunes.

He has been a huge part of my life for a few months now.  Being part of the family.  A place that my daughter now calls by his first name and knows way more about back end and html lingo than any two year should know.  Many of nights she has fallen asleep at my desk, while mommy’s say, “just a few more minutes sweetheart”.

Sooooo in celebration of my new site and just in time for the holidays…I am offering a two for one session fee deal! Buy one Session and get a second one FREE!  That is a $200!!  Buy a session for yourself and give one as Christmas gift to a friend, neighbor or relative.  Make their holidays by giving the gift of moments.  Moments captured to cherish for years to come.  Buy a session for your kids and give one to yourself and the hubby. 

Hurry offer ends Friday December 12!

*fine print* Free session will be equal value.  All sessions must be completed by June 1st 2009.

Ok on with the shoooooooooooooooooooow!  Grab a cup of coffee, sit back and explore… I would love to know what you think.  Send me some love in the comments.  Do you like the new digs??  Lovin the new music??  Easy to navigate around??  Any feedback would be awesome..and as you all know…I just loooooooooooove comments!  The site is HUGE… So depending on your computer and connection, it might take a bit to load.  here is my new man, Antonio… www.sheliastone.com
