No. Not the small pets. Kids that are not my own on which I can practice photography. If you live near me and you’d be willing to let me practice on your kids, let me know. I’ll give you a CD with high resolution images suitable for printing of any good shots I get and you’ll let me use the images in a portfolio.

St. Paul hit the nail on the head when he said, To the pure all things are pure, but to the impure nothing is pure (Ti 1:15). It is a tragically impure world that labels the purity of a baby at the breast as "gross." For those with the purity to see it, a nursing mother is one of the most precious, most beautiful, and most holy of all possible images of woman. (source)

I would totally subject my kids to your fantastic photography skills but … well, it’s not exactly “near”, is it? We are planning to be in Chicago in May though. No idea if that’s of any use!
I do have a friend who graduated from talented amateur to professional photographer just recently, mainly with photos of her daughter as well as beach photos - if you are interested I can put you in touch with her.

I think you are actually about as far away as one could be and not be at a science research station at one of the poles.

I take it you live in the windy city? Drats!!! Pittsburgh could really use your skills!

No. I’m in Connecticut. People local to me know me through twins groups and AP groups and the like. I did live in Chicago one winter. January in Chicago is…unpleasant.

Don’t I wish we could be your guinea pigs - you take such beautiful photos
October 30th, 2007 21:47
Hmmm, well MI is not close to Connecticut - darn! You take such gorgeous photos that I’d take you up on that in a second if I could!
October 30th, 2007 23:01
Gee and I thought you were jealous of my cute little guinea pigs.
If only we lived nearby, I’d like, go have coffee with you ! And you could take as many pics of my angels as you wanted!

How close to Albany,ny are you? We’d love to be your Guinea pigs!

After looking at your pics I’d love to volunteer my kid, however I don’t think you consider Australia to be near you

This is yet another one of your ploys to get us to move to CT, isn’t it? Between this and the homemade ice cream, you make a hard to resist offer!

Good for you, Stacie, for trying this out! I would love to be a children’s photographer and learn how to take wonderful pictures if I were a stay at home mom. I can’t wait to see all of the beautiful pictures you take!

K, we’re available this weekend in Colorado. I’ll pick you up, say, 7 p.m. at the airport? The twins will be in Tigger outfits so that will be cute.
October 31st, 2007 13:45
If you can make it to Michigan, the Beans are ready for their close up!
October 31st, 2007 15:15
We will be driving up to Boston in August. Maybe we could come your way.

Please - do you know how much money I spend at Portrait Simple - lets just say Jamie LOVES me, though Kangaroo the bunny does not love me very much. Though if you take pcitures we will have to trade something like a haircut.

If you were near Seattle, I’d contract you to take my younger son’s senior pics next fall……………..
I’d travel to Ct if you could take a picture of me where my neck fat is invisible!!!
October 31st, 2007 18:58
Holy crap I didn’t know you were in CT!! How far from Boston. Feel free to email me if you don’t want to be specific on here.

Hi Stacie! I’m just one or two towns over and I have plenty of guinea pigs here! We’d love to meet you (and your beautiful babes as well!) Your pictures are great!
