I am constantly struck by the beauty of places I pass in my travels. The places that inspire me are humble. Not the soaring remote mountain peaks, or lush tropical jungles, but everyday places. A parking lot, a sidewalk broken up by weeds, a cozy green space tucked under the freeway, fading murals and old typography on forgotten signs.

I want to show people these places, and have them see the beauty in them, and so I’ve begun documenting them. The images are composites of low-res cellphone camera shots to reinforce the “everyday” of these urban landscapes. This in series, called “Places” I hope to encourage people to seek out these locations them selves, and every piece is named with the location’s latitude and longitude.

Most locations are in my current home, Salt Lake City, Utah, but as I travel, I will continue to capture everyday beauty in other urban landscapes.
