“I participated in Steve’s vineyard workshop earlier this year and was impressed by his teaching skills and course management, as well as his knowledge of photography and viticulture. From hands-on photography instruction in the vineyard, to sampling wines in the tasting room, each participant walks away with a greater appreciation for both. I am pleased that the CPA is now able to partner with Steve and offer this course to a broader audience.”
—Richard Cannon, President, CPA Board of Trustees
“We all had a great time with Steve in the vineyards. I will definitely do another workshop with him in the future. He is a talented photographer and what touches me most, he is really a nice man with a great heart.”
—Rita Costa-Hollmann, Photographer
“Steve awakens us to the many moods and beauty of the landscape. His art sensitizes our vision to the subtleties of light. We have inspired each other for over 10 years through our eyes. Steve is very passionate regarding his art.”
