Over the course of the next year I will be undertaking an adventurous mission to visit and photograph each of the 50 states. My goal is to do this in one year spending appropriate amounts of time and the appropriate time of year in each location if at all possible. I will be visiting all different types of locations from remote deserts and snow covered peaks to huge metropolitan cities or washed up ghosttown remnants. Whatever each state has best to offer, I’m going to attempt to capture it’s beauty, it’s intrigue, it’s history. I’m going to try and capture it’s soul and tell it’s stories.
I will be doing this on my own, with nothing more than what I can take with me. No support crew, no entourage, no help. This will not be a glamorous trip with bed and breakfasts and spa days. No, this will be roadside living, rough camping and generally putting everything out there at all times, in order to experience as much as possbible and I hope to document it as best that I can.
I plan to spend time in each state, not only to find the most interesting and beautiful things to photograph and videograph, but I hope to blend into the evironment as much as possible and hope to get a chance to truly experience all the different cultures that make this country great.
Through photography, video and timelapse; I hope to share with you, a unique glimpse into the history, culture and social impact of each state and region of the this glorious land.
I hope that you follow along with me on this modern adventure to discover, explore and expose the United State of America in unusual light and using unnorthodox methods. I hope that I can tickle your eyeballs with some of the beauty this great land offers and maybe entertain you with some of the encounters and obstacles I’ll have to overcome in doing so.
Stay tuned as I am now underway.
