Tabius McCoy
My name is Tabius McCoy. I am a visual journalist that specializes in photography and video. I am based out of New York City, but I was born and raised on the Southeast side of Atlanta, GA.
I first picked up a camera when I was a 2nd year undergraduate student at Georgia Tech after my mother introduced me to the documentary, Choice of Weapons: Inspired by Gordon Parks. After watching the documentary, I was inspired by Parks and instantly fell in love with photography. In December of 2021, I bought my first camera, a Canon Rebel T3i, from my local pawn shop. I'ver had camera by my side ever since.
I have experience in covering many areas of photography. I have specialty and love for portrait photography, ranging from street portraits, environmental and editorial style portraits.
I am a recent graduate of the Journalism Master of Science program at Columbia University. Currently I am working as a Visual Journalist fellow at the Connecticut Mirror, and work on freelance projects as well.
