Bandit Photographer in Illinois

I was very lucky to accompany my friend Cory Piehowicz on a trip to Southern Illinois to shoot a wedding. We made some stops to shoot photos, and here are the results. Cory's photography and interests are fascinating. He has a passion for vintage photography depicting the working man at the turn of the 19th century and in the early 20th century. He regularly travels to hunt for antique denim and workwear in some places that are certifiably dangerous and by all means difficult to get to. He has a large following in the denim community for documenting his adventures, and for photographing the clothing he currently buys and wears. Find Cory's work here: http://corypiehowicz.com/

 

Old Town East Trolley Barn

The Trolley Barn in the Old Town East Neighborhood of Columbus, OH is actually a complex of multiple abandoned buildings awaiting redevelopment ( I hope it will be a brewery!), not just a single barn. It's a dominating feature of the area I live in and I often wonder about it's history and the people who worked there. That is what I wish to photograph! Instead you can look at the photos I took of it's present condition. A short history of the structures can be found here.

All Souls Procession

I was privileged and extremely lucky to attend The All Souls Procession in Tucson, AZ in November 2014. This is a community centered event based on Dia de los Muertos celebrations honoring the dead.  The parade is open to all free of charge, with thousands participating in the parade and as spectators on the parade route. Immersing myself in the parade as a local was one of the joys of traveling to Arizona, an experience I'll never forget.
