Stephen Lister is an independent photographer based in Edinburgh, Scotland, specialising in lifestyle, travel, food, interiors and editorial photography. His work is rooted in a curiosity for people, places and the details that make them interesting, with a considered approach to visual storytelling that balances natural moments with thoughtful composition.
He works across a broad range of commissions, collaborating with brands, creative studios, publications, hospitality businesses and individuals. His work spans everything from documenting independent restaurants, hotels and architectural spaces to capturing people, culture and everyday life, both in Scotland and further afield.
Stephen's approach is informed by a genuine interest in the world around him and a desire to tell stories through photography. Whether working on a commissioned project or developing personal work, he is drawn to character, atmosphere and the often overlooked details that give a place or subject its identity.
Based in Edinburgh, Stephen works throughout the UK and internationally, taking on a range of commercial, editorial and commissioned projects.
