Use CitriStrip to remove the finish, sand to 400 grit, then refinish the stock. If you want an original finish like a factory Winchester, use shellac finish, available in many woodworking supplies stores (looks shiny but thin on the wood). Or for an easy finish, just use TruOil, which you can get pretty much anywhere gun care supplies are sold (deeper penetration, shows the grain well, seals nicely).

For gun photos, put the gun on a neutral background (grey, green, or sand color works well), use adequate lighting (flash often looks bluish), and make dure the photos are focused.
