Shooting the women Steve loved in college was how he began his explorations into photography. Those early carefree experiments evolved into a full fledged career shooting fashion and beauty for magazines (Harper's Bazaar, French Vogue, GQ, The New York Times) and advertising in the 1970s and 1980s, in New York City and Paris, France, where he lived for 7 years. In Steve's new country home outside Philadelphia, he has now turned his attention to examining what it means to be an artist at this point in his life. Steve continues to shoot commercially, with his greatest joy being in creating unique portraits with an edge. He also combines paints and photos, writes, and plays acoustic guitar, and he loves every step of his continually unfolding creative journey. Steve has had exhibits of his paintings and photography at The Chestnut Hill Gallery in 2010 and 2012, and at The Wendy Concannon Gallery in 2012, both in Philadelphia.
