KRYS ALEX - Portrait, Editorial and Documentary Photographer - Episode 37

On Monday, October 12th 2020 Krys woke up to a flood of emails and calls from the UK. She found out a photograph she took back in 2017 (that she uploaded to a free stock photography website) was used in a Retrain Government campaign in the UK. To say that she was shocked is an understatement.

Krys Alex is a photographer based in Atlanta, Georgia raised in Kingston, Jamaica. Her work uses tools of photojournalism, portraiture and filmmaking to tell stories. Self-taught with a sincere passion for all things photographic her work makes little distinction between commissioned and personal stories, using both as an opportunity to capture raw emotion. In this episode, Kersten and Nick chat to Krys about her photographic work, the impact of the Rethink Reskill Reboot campaign and what it’s like to witness the events of 2020 in Atlanta through the lens.
