Steve delights in just about anything that is creative.  He has been a guitarist for more than 25 years.  As a teenager he co-founded and performed in a Christian band called "Exodus".   He is also a drummer, and has written songs that were published and performed live in the past. Steve's passion for creativity has driven him to invest countless hours in designing and building (ongoing project) a backyard tropical paradise that is the talk of friends and family alike ... Not to mention, awesome backdrop areas for our photography.   Speaking of tropical gardening, be sure to check out our gardening links page for a great resource in designing and building your own backyard oasis! Steve's interest in photography began as a high school student growing up in Northeastern Oklahoma.   He studied photography (back then film and darkroom) through his high school's gifted and talented program.  He also shared his interest in photography as a hobby with his dad.  Steve also studied math,  science, computers and electronics as a high school student.  He later earned his BS in chemistry and worked as a lab technician for major chemical companies for about 15 years. Steve has a strong technical background, a passion for being creative, a talent for detail work, and he throws his heart and soul  into achieving nothing but  total excellence.  He is a father of five kids and a loving and devoted husband. In our business, Steve handles marketing, equipment acquisition and setup, accounting, gardening, and he designed, built, and maintains our website.  Beyond that, he is also skilled in photography, and it is rumored he has even taken up writing recently.  You may contact Steve here.
