Please Note: Starting Jan 1st 2025 Little Sunshine Photography is now Kiera Stokes Photography!

Welcome!

Hey there! I'm Kiera Stokes, a traveling photographer based in North Eastern Pennsylvania. I'm a wife, a mom of boys, a lover of all animals, and an equestrian! I started riding horses when I was 9 years old and was gifted my first film camera in my early teens. Today, I still have 2 horses and my passion for photography has grown into a full time business. If you're looking for a photographer who truly understands the bond you have with your horse or pet, I'm your girl!
