I'm doing it.....

Well, I love taking pictures. And people are asking me if I will take their pictures. So I have decided to do it - I'm going to start my photography business. I've been designing my website, logo, watermark, getting things in order, and here it is:  www.stephaniestokerphotography.com. Check it out.

I'm really excited to do this. I love taking pictures. It has become my passion. I want to learn more. I want to be better at posing, building my portfolio, designing, editing, lighting, getting kids to smile, families to be natural in their pics, etc. And I can only do that by starting my business and taking pictures of other people.

I recently upgraded my camera body (it's so awesome!) and I have complete confidence in my picture taking abilities. My prices are crazy low for a photographer, but it's because I'm beginning and I want the practice. So feel free to let people know about me, show them my website, etc.

I will still keep this blog going, more so to document my family life, my crazy motherhood experience and my kids. And I'll use my other website for anything photography related, posts on how I taught myself photography, links to other pages where I learned stuff, pictures I take of other people, etc.

Now, I can't leave a post without some pictures - so here you go! Enjoy!

Can you see that cute tooth?

 She walked from chair, to chair, to her high chair, and to the door to get here. She's getting better! In fact, the other day she took 3 steps!

And she's got her mouth open, slobbering all over the window. Ha ha!

I posted these on facebook, so sorry to those who have already seen them, but in case you haven't, they are fun. Jonas just loves his costume. Might as well get some good use out of it since he won't fit in it next year.
