Stan Stearns Chooses Bella Photo Art for Printing

Bella Photo Art & Framing Gallery is proud to announce that we are now the official large-format printer for Stan Stearns Fine Photography. Stan has been the most prolific photographer in the Annapolis, Maryland area for many years. His photography has been seen and purchased by people, magazines, governments, universities and corporations around the world. As Stan says "I don't take pictures...I create images".

On a cold November day in 1963, while working as a press photographer for United Press International, Stan took the image that mesmerized the world. As the nation watched along with Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy and her two children Caroline and tiny John, the caisson of President John F. Kennedy passed Washington's St. Matthews Cathedral. At that moment Stan, who was positioned just across the street, poised his camera and watched. Jackie bent down, whispered something into her son's ear and 3 year old John's hand went up. With a click, Stan immortalized John's poignant salute to his young father in a photograph that would crystallize the nation's grief the next morning on the front pages of newspapers and magazines around the world.

Today Stan devotes himself to creating the UNIQUE for the average or the famous. A prize winning photographer that will make your candids jump, your portraits speak and your advertisements to come alive.

You may contact Stan at his web site: ssphotography.com.
