The August “Photography” edition of 501 LIFE will be featured during the 12:30 p.m. news show on Tuesday, July 23, on KARK Channel 4.

Each month, 501 LIFE co-publisher and editor Sonja Keith presents information about the current edition as it hits the streets. 

“Photographs are somewhat magical. They can conjure up a wide range of emotions and take you to places miles and miles away. Photos can also transport you back in time to places that no longer exist and people who only live in our hearts and memories,” said Sonja. “We are excited to present this month’s edition, which features the talent of several photographers from the 501.

“For this month’s cover story, 501 LIFE Chief Photographer Mike Kemp shares some favorite photos as well as his thoughts on capturing life while still experiencing it.”

For the Channel 4 segment, Mike will be joining Sonja to discuss his story and photos.
