This Florida photographer helps neighbors save family photos after Hurricane Ian.
"I knew what we needed to do with them, but she had no clue what to do with these photographs that were just laying across their front yard," said Kowalczyk."I just started focusing on pictures and then we found boxes of pictures, pictures going back to 1850."
"People were very appreciative just to have somebody come up to their house and say, 'How can I help you,'" she said."For some of them, I just offered tips, saying, 'Just take those out of the albums. That's all you have to do,' or, 'Rinse this off, throw it in some water and those pictures will be fine.'"
For one local family that lost nearly everything in the hurricane, Kowalczyk is working to restore thousands of photographs that the family found amid the remains of their home.
