SoWeFlo Life Cover Photo Takeover ~ Courtesy of Robert Hoovis

Each week SoWeFlo Life features one amazing SWFL photographer, who shares our passion for life in Paradise. We ask that photographer to ‘take over’ the cover photo of our Facebook page, and make it their own. We are honored to feature some of SWFL’s most talented and creative photographers… both professional and amateur. Each one able to capture SWFL scenes with a sense of love and passion, as well as an artist’s eye for beauty, energy and vibe.

This week Robert Hoovis of Old Sparky Productions has taken over the Soweflo Life cover photo.

Please do check out Rob on Instagram… he is a must-follow. We discovered Rob as we scrolled through our daily ‘#SWFL’ search on Instagram. As we scrolled each day, an amazing photo would ‘pop!’ off the screen, it was always a Rob Hoovis phtograph. Rob’s photography became instantly recognizable, and each ‘wow’ photo was better than the next.

Rob Hoovis has an artist’s eye and a poet’s heart. He’s able to capture the real Southwest Florida vibe, energy, and story, of the moment, scene or person in his focus. Rob’s creativity and artistry is amazing as well. Often, Rob will take a SWFL scene that we’ve all walked or driven by so many times that it’s simply background… and recreate it visually to make it new again.. something different than it was before.

One of our all-time favorite Rob Hoovis photos was taken in Fort Myers. A simple random moment, brought to life, which was like a really well written short story. A musician practicing his craft, underneath an over-pass. A saxophone player bouncing the sound of his music off the cement walls, feeling all the vibration and sound and energy, he created. A ‘wow’ of a photograph, and telling of two passionate artists.. Rob Hoovis and the sax player.
