Alex Kay Potter
Photographer

Alex Potter is a photographer from the Midwest living in the Middle East. She is currently based in Yemen.

She began her career in Minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes. After growing restless with her nursing job, Alex picked up to document post-revolution Yemen, a land with zero lakes, but plenty of mountains to climb. In 2012, she was selected as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar, and moved to Lebanon.

Though she didn’t study photography, Alex has attended the NYTimes Lens Review, Eddie Adams Workshop, and a VII Masterclass, which were much more beneficial than your average classroom. Since 2012 she has been chosen for the Chris Hondros Student Fellowship, Lucie Foundation Emerging Scholarship Commended (2012, 2013, 2014), PDN Photo Annual, American Photography (29,30) , and the LOOKbetween Fellowship, among others.
