More about Steven M....

What do you love about your job?

I am a people person - I love to work with and around people. Photography is a way to share my gifts with others, but also an important creative outlet for me. When I can make timeless, authentic and beautiful images, it becomes a win-win for me and my clients.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

In my Portrait and Headshot sessions, we generally spend several hours and have professional hair and makeup done (for women), and spend a lot of time with different looks; so I have my clients bring all the clothes they can. We shoot different looks with various backgrounds using professional lighting that looks natural but emphasizes beauty, making people look the best they can look.

When shooting on location, I take a similar approach and get a lot of looks whether using natural light or using artificial lighting and setups.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

I recently spent time as a Resident Artist (for Photography) at a boutique hotel near Big Bend National Park, where I created a book of portraits featuring locals from the area.
