Bethlehem Road (1998-2010)

For more than ten years, I photographed along Bethlehem Road, which snakes through rural Marion County, Georgia. James Stubbs, my father-in-law, lived there on his ancestral land, where the heart pine cabin he grew up in still stands. Aaron Stubbs, family historian and heavy truck driver, whose backyard is a graveyard for lost vehicles, lives one mailbox down the road. In this work I create a personal mythology from the memories of a city-bred boy, awed by the mysteries I encountered on visits to my mother's family's home place deep in the Alabama countryside.

Forgotten Coast (2003-2006)

"Forgotten Coast" is a marketing slogan for the less popular part of Florida's panhandle, including the area around Apalachicola, Florida. It has additional meaning for me: like most families in our area, we spent time every summer on the Gulf Coast, and because I have poor long-term memory, I recall only fragments of those childhood experiences. I started photographing the area in 2003, mainly with medium format digital, in black and white, more recently in color with a DSLR.
