Welcome to this episode where I explore the remarkable journey of an individual dedicated to capturing local history firsthand. Have you ever wondered about those unsung heroes who've remained steadfast with one employer for 40 years, while actively shaping the narrative of their community? Meet Ian MacAlpine, a seasoned photographer and photojournalist with The Kingston Whig Standard. Since the early eighties, Ian has been on the front lines of our local news and sports events, witnessing the evolution of his profession amidst technological advancements, fierce competition, and media consolidation.
