Photographer
I came to the world of street photography later in life, after studying painting and drawing for many years. In 2015, when I found myself in an artistic slump, a friend suggested I take a photo course at the International Center of Photography. So I enrolled in one course and then another, eventually landing in a street photography class. It was then that I realized that this was it: this was my calling.
As a New Yorker, the genre of street photography was a natural fit. The frenetic pace of urban life, the blend of peoples and cultures, and the energy of unremitting commerce was my new canvas. With a camera in place of a paint brush, I could capture the endlessly fascinating drama unfolding in the public sphere.
New York City: the city everyone knows whether you’ve been there or not. A behemoth of a metropolis that has rooted itself in the consciousness of countless people around the globe since the early days of photography. But seeing the city through the eyes of a local can expand your view, take you deeper, see it like an insider. Join Alexandra on a photographic tour that gets unabashedly close and personal on the streets of the city she calls home, as she shares the challenges, the opportunities and the sheer joy of photographing New York City and environs.
