I married Jeanie, the love of my life, on July 24, 2004, and since then have
wanted to photograph weddings.
It is our goal to spread joy and positive intentions through our photography.
I started shooting in the music business in Los Angeles in 1976. I’ve shot thousands of national editorial, corporate & advertising assignments; was chief photographer for the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee; and have produced extensive lifestyle stock photography.
My assignment work has appeared in “People”, “Time”, “Rolling Stone”, “Men’s Journal”, “Life”, “Fortune”, “Forbes”, “Business Week and “The New York Times Magazine”. Among the celebrities I’ve had the privilege of shooting on assignment are: Sir Anthony Hopkins, Angelina Jolie, Sarah Jessical Parker, Vivica Fox, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Matthew Perry.
In 1994 I moved my family from Venice, CA to Sun Valley, ID. Commuting between L.A. and Sun Valley wore thin so in 2002 I relocated to Boise, ID to open our current studio.

Can you work miracles on 80 year olds???? Thanks for the anniversary greeting from your family. Carol made it a celebration to remember—–hopefully we will remember!!
Steve, you are absolutely fabulous to work with. In fact it didnt seem like work at all! Chad and I have our once in a lifetime moments captured in their true essence, the Love of a Lifetime….. Thank You! P
