Welcome to the Payne's PhotoWorld! I'm Stanton K. Payne II, A.O.S. I do custom photography for a living. I attended Austine School for the Deaf in Brattleboro, VT from pre-K to 12th grade. I lived in dormitories all my life. I felt abandoned there as a kid. However, I got to go home every weekend. As I grew up there, I made the school a home away from home. I graduated Austine in 1994. Then, I went directly to college.
I attended and graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York. I majored in Digital Photography & Publishing Technology (formerly known as Imaging Technology) at the college of NTID. Rochester Institute of Technology is located in the suburbs of Rochester. About 14,000 students attend RIT. RIT has 8 colleges on campus. NTID is one of the 8 colleges of RIT. NTID stands for National Technical Institute for the Deaf. About 1,500 deaf students attend NTID. Hockey is the major sport at RIT. RIT is one of the best technical school in the world. I graduated from RIT in 1999 with an associate degree.
I am currently working for Wal-Mart in the one hour photo center. I am hoping to start my own custom photo lab someday. It will allow me to work more independently on my own never ending projects such as shooting photographs, making custom prints & enlargements, digital imaging and updating websites. I am currently investing in the Wal-Mart Stock Program in order to reach my goals in the future.

I am a sports fanatic and I enjoy spectators sport as well as playing some sports for fun in my spare time. I very much enjoy studying the authorized version Bible in my spare time. I love photography besides God and I always put Him FIRST in my priorities.
