Hello,
You should be fine driving that motor with the DRV8825 carrier as long as you set the current limit to the 1.5A the DRV8825 carrier is rated for. Please note you will have about 88% of the holding torque the stepper motor is rated for since the DRV8825 can only supply 1.5A per phase without additional cooling.
