Uchee Methodist Church and Some Rural Decay Photography
In my latest rural decay photography shoot, Uchee Methodist Church in Uchee, Alabama is in a very rural part of Lee County, and still stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural heritage of the region. With its roots tracing back to 1833, the church has witnessed a lot of history.

Written on the Walls Behind Bars, Part 3
This is Part 3 of 3 in the “Written on the Walls Behind Bars” posts (see Part 1 and Part 2 to see the progression). The transition to the bars and then with “Love” written on the face of the father is pretty incredible to me. These shots were part of a larger shoot that…

Written on the Walls Behind Bars, Part 2
A continuation shot of Part 1, this shot is Part 2 of 3 and was taken just on the other side of the window bars and shows the extent of the mural on the wall. The wall depicts a family, possibly their witch-doctor, and the love they have for their missing child.

Written on the Walls Behind Bars, Part 1
An abandon building that holds children in prison for various delinquencies, many of whom are spending and have spent years there. While this building wasn’t being used, the overall facility was still quite active with over 150 children housed on the property.
