Hi, my name is Robert Stevens, the Owner and Photographer of The Gold Studio. I received my degree from The Ohio Institute of Photography and Technology in 1996 and began working with Kenton Jordan (2nd owner) before becoming the sole owner in 2006. It is easy to say that photography became my passion in high school after joining the yearbook staff at RHHS!

I strive to enhance my photography skills by regularly attending conferences, seminars, and trainings to learn about new techniques, equipment, and styles. I am an active member of The Professional Photographers of America, The Professional Photographers of Ohio, and SYNC (Seniors and Youth National Conference).

I am proud to have my photography nationally published in the following magazines; "Senior Muse", "Senior Inspire", and "Inspiring Teen". I have also received numerous Awards of Excellence and Awards of Merit from SYNC, The Professional Photographers of America, and The Professional Photographers of Ohio.

I am married to my wife, Myra, of 17 years. Together we have a combined family of 4 children: Collin-Misty, Camera, Bella, and Emmi. We have 1 granddaughter, Grace, and a future grandson, Tobias.
