Episode 4 - Alex Marie Alford
from Straight to the Deep End · host Anna Standrowicz
I was so stoked to sit down with Alex in her new traveling van she just purchased out by the water in Mission Bay, San Diego and dive deep into her story and background! She is a travel/local photographer here in San Diego but you will come to find out she is so much more then her instagram page @alexmariealford (Highly recommend you follow and support!) She shares her story about growing up in a military family with her dad enlisted in the Marines and how that's shaped her to who she is today, to having her life uprooted many times growing up, to the decision to come out to San Diego on a one way ticket and how she found her place in the world of photography. If you are looking to get inspired by an incredible independent woman who is finding a way to always fight her fears and push past them to live the life she wants, then please join in on listening to her story and what she has to say! (This is a completely unedited Podcast so you will hear a few interruptions since we were sitting in her van outside with the doors open enjoying the cool breeze and letting her dog Jessie roam around. I am all about making the person I am talking to feel comfortable and in their element and things happen but we just roll with it! :)
