Steven was born in 1965 in Saigon, Vietnam. His family spent a couple years living in Chiang-Mai, Thailand before they moved back to his mother’s hometown of Brevard, North Carolina. He studied photography with Geoff Winningham and Peter T. Brown, becoming enchanted with color printing, and exploring multiple image compositions and collages. Printing for many years on conventional Type C color paper from color negatives, he transitioned to digital imaging and archival inkjet printing in 2012.
