35mm from California to Utah

Another reason to love film is: forgetfulness.

Part of the reason why I take so many pictures is to remember things. I have a fear of forgetting. To cope with this fear I photograph and write. A lot. When time interferes with the development of film, I do forget what I have captured in frames and am pleasantly surprised with remembering. My memory is sometimes like an old friend I haven't seen in a while...

Utah
Untitled
The Salt Flats drew out an unhealthy obsession from within me. I have an affinity with the desert. 

Untitled
I could have spent the whole day photographing the flats. I plan to return and do this.

Rich reds and oranges of the mountains in Utah.

An image from the best drive of the trip through fog swept towns and disappearing mountain tops. Eric and I fell in love with a small town by the name of Helper, UT.

Untitled
The ghost town of Cisco, UT. I had to look up the name of the town in my notebook. At the end of every day I recorded our trip and asked Eric the names of towns and places. Thank you, Eric, for being so patient.

There comes a power with a camera in which you can ask people to do things outside of their comfort zone in the name of art! One such thing may be to ask a friend to stand inside a very, very creepy and possibly haunted building.

Untitled
Another abandoned house in Cisco, UT. So empty, quiet, and very unsettling.
