All Shook Up...








Here are some of our favorite shots from Monona Grove's production of "All Shook Up" the musical, with my son Connor Stevens as one of the leads...
It was a little tricky building some of these panoramas from several exposures, and if you're interested in buying one contact us...

See a slide show of the first night dress rehearsals here.
See a slide show of the second night dress rehearsals here.
See a very fast slide show of two evenings of dress rehearsals here.

If you're interested in purchasing a slide show please email us : picasso1@charter.net
A link to where you can purchase prints is at the end of each slide show. These are high quality professional prints (much better and longer lasting than cheap drug store/big box store prints) and are worth the extra moola!!!

REMEMBER all proceeds from sales are going to the Monona Grove Choir Department so be generous!

Amanda-future photographer




Meet Amanda, she is here with a shadowing program from her High School, learning about what it is a photographer does. Today she helped me edit, adjust, retouch and post the blog images from today's shoot. That is probably less than 10% of all the duties a business owner/photographer does. (She won't want to be here on the day that I am the janitor!) Good luck Amanda, you have a bright shiny future ahead of you.

Reese - Newborn





Meet Reese for the first time. This is her photographic debut. Like mother, like daughter, modeling comes easy.

Furniture as ART





Charley, artisan, and object maker combined into one, has finished yet another piece that will be going to either a business, museum, or client. He does these pieces on speculation, and sends the imagery to potential clients, such as the Smithsonian who already own an original piece.

Mother's Day is approaching!


What Mom would not like the face of their child made into a work of art? Here's an example of a painterly approach to an image that was printed onto canvas and then hand painted.

On the left is the image painted, on the right a close up and the original photo.

color me crazy


That's because I am crazy about the new process I have finally learned, making my photos look more like artwork! I was up at 7AM searching for suitable imagery to mess around with, and this is a still life that I had done previously, but now it has a whole different LOOK!

Spotlight on Connor...





Charlie's youngest son continues to amaze us with his talent. He also has great taste in girlfriends, this is his friend Ali. Both of them are in varsity show choir, among many other activities associated with High School.

trying to stay busy



when the season permits...or should I say when it is frigid cold outside and blowing snow..it gives me time to work on our brand and promo items.. this is just a sneak preview of one of those types of things.
