Dog's Best Friend // Tallahassee Magazine

I (Alex) had the opportunity to spend the morning with Dr. Kevin Drygas and his family. As a father and business owner, being present with my kids is one of the most important things in the world to me. It was amazing getting to be a “fly on the wall” as Dr. Drygas put the scrubs away and exchanged it for a skateboard. He shared about their journey to Tallahassee and building a business here. He and his practice makes Tallahassee a better place for all the pet owners in out community. We were grateful for Tallahassee Magazine sharing these images!

Proof Brewing Co./ Pandemic Pivots - 850 Business Magazine

Covid affected different businesses differently and everyone had to make adjustments. It was amazing to see how TLH community pivoted to survive the pandemic and serve the community. We were thankful to be a part of sharing the story of how Proof Brewery adapted and started making hand sanitizer. We teamed up with Rowland Publishing for the feature in 850 Business Magazine.

The Life of Marta // Tallahassee Magazine

It’s not everyday I get asked to photograph someone who doesn’t have much time to live. In the fall of last year, we partnered with Rowland Publishing on a project. I had the opportunity to spend an afternoon with Marta while she was in her final weeks of life at Big Bend Hospice. She shared her story of fleeing Communist Cuba and making a new life here in the United States. Her smile lit up the room and her joy was contagious. It’s interesting how today, contagious seems like such a bad word. There are so many things that can be contagious and not necessarily in a bad way. How can we be joyful and how can that joy be contagious to those around us?

Goals matter. The first of year brings out thoughts of personal and professional goals. One of my goals was to capture an image for the cover of a magazine. I didn’t have a particular subject or publication in mind, but I wanted something that would challenge me to think of “the shot” instead of the entire photoshoot. I had the opportunity to take portraits of US District Attorney Keefe and I was so excited when it became the cover of an issue of 850 Business Magazine.

Dailey Life // Tallahassee Magazine

On May 2nd, 2019, I spend a little more than half a day with Tallahassee Mayor John Dailey. We meet at the Tallahassee Police Department Headquarters, for a memorial service. Then, I rode with him to the Tallahassee School of Math and Science where he read a few books and had a Fortnite Dance Competition with a class of kindergarteners. We drove the city, talking about growth, development and preservation of the history in our community. Next stop was the Leadership Tallahassee Class 36 graduation and finally to the Bond neighborhood. And that was all before 1:15pm… We partnered with Rowland Publishing to share the story of Tallahassee’s new mayor in Tallahassee Magazine.
