Documenting the abandoned & forgotten before it’s gone. Welcome to my urban exploration (urbex) photography page! Thank you for visiting.

Urban exploration is the act of exploring abandoned or off-limits areas, typically for the purpose of documentation and photography. It's a unique and thrilling way to discover hidden corners of our cities and the stories they hold. As a photographer, I have always been drawn to capturing the beauty and mystery of these forgotten spaces. Whether it's an old factory, a abandoned hospital, or a decommissioned power plant, each location has its own unique character and history. Through my lens, I strive to capture these qualities and share them with others. I hope you enjoy exploring these photographs as much as I enjoyed creating them.

Halloween countdown: Day 2

Tonight at midnight: an old church in rural Mississippi, sitting near the river that shares its name.

The building is flooded. The windows are still intact, but a green light glows from inside them anyway. A full moon lights the scene from above. It’s abandoned—or at least it looks that way from the outside.

What do you think is still in there?

Halloween countdown: Day 3

Tonight at midnight: a 1920s bus sitting deep in the Alabama woods.

No road leads straight to it anymore. Inside, a sickly green light glows through the broken windows—dim, uneven, and the wrong color for anything that should still be running. The trees close in around it. Nothing moves. Nothing should.

What do you think is still riding in there?

Halloween countdown: Day 4

Tonight at midnight: an early 1900s house sitting hard against the railroad tracks.

A red light burns inside the old windows while a full moon lights the sky. The tracks run right past the porch—quiet for now, but the house looks like it’s been waiting for something to come down the line. The kind of place that doesn’t feel empty after dark.

What do you think is still inside?

DeadlyKnot reached out in 2018 and asked if I wanted to meet up and explore. Eight years later, that still doesn’t feel real. We’ve covered a lot of ground since.

Halloween countdown: Day 5

Tonight at midnight: an old gas station in Winona, Mississippi.

The pumps are long gone, the windows are dark, until now, and the only thing still advertising anything is the wording out front: "Easy Feet". Odd name for a station. Turns out it’s a local Winona thing—a foot care and diabetic shoe shop in town that has been around for years. Somehow the words ended up on this building, and now they just hang there after dark.

Midnight makes it feel less like a business sign and more like a warning. Easy feet… or something that walks a little too easily in the dark.

What do you think is still moving around this place?

Halloween countdown: Day 6

Adams Grove Presbyterian Church, Alabama.Built in 1853, this Greek Revival church still stands in the quiet countryside near Sardis—box columns, portico, and all—long after the congregation moved on. Privately owned now, it sits empty under the trees, the kind of place where moonlight fills the windows and the past doesn’t quite stay quiet.What do you think still gathers here after dark?
