Beginning with his first magazine assignment in 1987, Jeromie has worked for several magazines and record labels including, Guitar Player, Rolling Stone, Acoustic Guitar, Acoustic Musician, FRETS!, Rittor Publications - Tokyo Japan, Bluegrass Unlimited, N.R.G. Records, KANSAS! Magazine, Car Sound , and U.S. Rowing Magazine. His work is part of the personal collection of Dan Rather, and the Hard Rock Cafe in Washington, D.C. Recently one of his photographs of Danny Gatton was used for a book cover on that artist.

All of the photos you see on this web site happen to be black and white. In following the style of his biggest influence in music photography - Jim Marshall - who almost always worked in B/W, Jeromie has chosen to work in this discipline. When asked, he'll also credit W. Eugene Smith, William Albert Allard ,Henri Cartei Brasson and David Gahr as strong influences.

Currently Jeromie is balancing his daytime job working in telecommunications and his night time passion of photographing musicians. He and his family live near Tucson, AZ. The rest of his time is spent pursuing a new interest - high end audio. "I just picked up a pair of older Klipschorn speakers and they sound great!!. They are very efficient at 104db w/1watt input, so they perfectly match my little class A tube amp." says Stephens.

Looking through his living room is a lesson in vintage Hi-Fi and analog reproduction gear. "I've been badly bitten by the audio bug - Just what I needed, another expensive hobby."
