Detroit abandoned building photography captures the haunting beauty of the city’s forgotten spaces. Once a thriving hub of industry and innovation, Detroit is now home to countless abandoned factories, vacant skyscrapers, and empty neighborhoods that tell a story of both decline and resilience. These forgotten structures, like the Michigan Central Station, the Packard Automotive Plant, and long-closed theaters, serve as reminders of the city’s rich past and ongoing transformation.

My street photography captures the raw energy and contrast of urban life, from bustling city streets to vibrant artist markets. Using deep shadows and striking light, I shape the world around me, highlighting movement, emotion, and the dynamic relationship between people and their environment.

Cars in the Wild is a photographic exploration of forgotten classic automobiles, left to decay where they once roared to life. These rusted-out relics, scattered across fields, forests, and backroads, tell a story of time, abandonment, and nature’s slow reclamation. Once symbols of power, freedom, and design, these cars now stand as weathered monuments to the past.
