When our publisher Christian Owen dreamed of creating a beautiful monthly print magazine to celebrate the beauty and bounty of our River City, finding the perfect photographer was paramount to the success of her vision. Sarah Bell, whose work masterfully captures everything from portraits and landscapes to the ever-challenging realm of interiors, was the obvious choice for Photo Editor. But the mark of a true professional is that they never, ever stop learning. This month in our Home issue, it is fitting that we chronicle Sarah's recent journey to Dallas, where she attended an immersive and inspiring workshop hosted by celebrated photographer Stephen Karlisch and his wife Kristen, explicitly designed to explore the art of photographing interiors.
On a Google quest for interior lighting information, Sarah stumbled upon Stephen's website over a year ago. Architectural Digest, Veranda, Elle Decor and House Beautiful have featured Stephen's work, to name a few. Since COVID hit, he has dedicated significant time to coaching fellow industry professionals. Coach Stephen maintains that "the creative time in photography should be spent on location - making your images in camera, not on the computer."
