Sarah Stokes Photography specializes in unique & one-of-a-kind photographs! Most of the pictures I do are in your choice of either black & white or sepia, with some in color selections, (black & white with items colored). I rarely use props, and will never ask your child to "smile" or "say cheese" Capturing your little one's spirit and personality is my ultimate goal, and I work hard to bring that out in the pictures! Set in a comfortable, care-free enviroment your child will feel relaxed with no pressure to hurry or 'pose', all the time nessesary to capture an amazing session will be used, be it 30 minutes or 2 hours we will do it!
Ashley was getting Baptised and her mom was making some announcements, so she brought her over in her gorgeous dress and had me take a few. Ashley always does awsome for pictures, she is very sweet and doesn't mind trying out new poses!
Of course this is one of my favorite sessions! My sister and her family came to my house a few weeks ago, we took some outside and it was way too cold so we then went to my house to finish up indoors, and not with out their family dog Charlie. My nephews sre dang funny, and as it goes, they hate to take pictures. It was a very fun day, and we topped off the day with dinner!
Older kids are sooo funny, they have to be so cool! Tanner was very cooperative, and I only got a few weird looks from him when I would ask him to do something. He brought his best friend with him to take a few pictures with him, they were both very sweet. His mom is great, and she loved the pictures!
This is the 2nd time I have taken pictures of this baby. Her mom brought her over when she was 2 weeks old. Their poor mom Jamie, didn't think we got 1 single good picture this day, but I can show you different! These girls are adorable, and every time they come it just turns into a big gabfest with their cute mom. I can't wait to do summer pictures with these 2 cuties.
Another wonderful newborn. She is only 6 days old! I am sooo happy for her parents, congratulations you two! This little one was sooo tired, she let me bend and move her, I love it when they do that. I'm a little afraid for her dad, I think she has melted his heart, she will have him wrapped around her finger so tight, he could not get enough of her, I know I've said it before but, dads and their girls?
This is the family of the cute little baby boy I did, Harman. He has the sweetest parents ever. I have really enjoyed getting to know Jessica, she has been great to work with, and she totally brags me up to everyone she sees-who wouldn't like that? I am excited to have met this young, new family, I am planning on creating lots of memories for all their future children!!
I had the pleasure of doing this session with my good friend Mel. We just shot through like a breeze, Kinley let me bend and move her how ever I wanted, it was great. I can't wait to take more pictures of her as she gets older.
I can't believe this baby is only 7 months old! She was such a happy, smiley baby, and her mom was absolutely adorably, she brought over the cutest things to use in the pictures. This was one of those sessions that just never ended because the baby was just being so darn cooperative! It could not have gone any smoother!
This was a HUGE change from doing little ones... Senior pictures-they were sooo fun to do, who knew? I mean I could tell her how to sit, walk back to my camera, turn around and she was still siting like I told her, amazing! I didn't have to run around, make silly faces, sing, or dance. No editing food, boogies, or tears either! Lacey was so photogenic, I could take pictures of her all day long and not get tired of seeing her.
This little cutie did not want her picture taken, at all! We had to re-schedule and bring her dad for back up! He not only got some great smiles, he down right had her laughing. Dads and their girls, am I missing something? Her mom did everything she could to get her to crack a smile, but she wouldn't budge, in the end I love the result of the 2nd session, it shows how happy she is.
These 3 kids were such great sports during their session. I took the baby's picture when she was 2 weeks old, she was just as happy then as she was this time! Their mom has been awesome to work with, she is always so cheerful and fun!
