The book offers many tips culled from his experiences before, during, and after his ten years as owner of Hawai’i School of Photography. Stephen credits his parents for their never-ending support but also United Cerebral Palsy for the early intervention and therapies he needed as a youngster. He invites you to enjoy his life’s work and hopes you gain a few insights to improve your photography.
