Ellie Stone’s experience with photography goes back 20+ years. Her photographic interests are quite broad; from landscape to macro, weddings to photojournalism, portraits to night photography, and even the fast action trickery of sporting events. Years ago, Ellie combined one of her passions with another and plunged head first into starting a business photographing athletes at running races and triathlons. Her work proved remarkable, and she quickly received notoriety by being published in magazines and newspapers.

As a teacher, Ellie’s passion, enthusiasm, and affection for capturing the beauty of the world through photography is infectious. Teaching is one of her tremendous strengths as she has an uncanny skill of listening and understanding her student’s unique ways of learning. By doing so, she caters to each student’s learning style so her students maximize their photographic learning potential.

Besides Ms. Stone’s obvious passion for photography, her diversity and interests are infinite! She is a triathlete, accomplished equestrian, chef, business woman and gifted runner. Ellie recently competed in the Boston Marathon, the most competitive marathon in the world, and re-qualified for 2012. She resides in the “frog-jumping” capital of the world, Calaveras County, where she volunteers for the Calaveras Humane Society and seizes each moment to practice photography.
