Steph's work is profoundly influenced by influential European painters and cinematographers, which shapes her approach to image-making.
 
The foundation of her love for art was laid in her childhood, sparked by the gift of her first paintbrush from her aunt. Her passion only intensified. 
 
"Never before have I felt such vitality as when I take photos or draw. Creating art through imagery resonates deeply with the people.  It's an exhilarating experience that gives me a profound sense of purpose in this world, inspiring others."
 
Steph crafts a sense of time and place that transports her viewers. Her innate ability to forge connections with her subjects on a profound level enables her to capture moments that authentically speak to the viewer.
