The Former Crest Hills Country Club
In a small Ohio village, where the population hangs just below 4,000, there's a park. It's trails are former cart paths and it's gleaming waters are former traps, once the nemesis of golfers who were willing to pony up a hefty yearly membership fee. Then there's the clubhouse, where the wedding receptions no longer happen, the sunday brunches are no longer served and the pool out back is empty aside from algae ridden, stagnant water.
"Fading Ads of Cincinnati" Available November 30th!

Searching For the Time, Searching for The Chance to see a Historic Ship
I was sitting at my desk. On the main computer monitor: a combination of Lightroom, Bridge and Photoshop displaying photos in various stages of editing. On the secondary monitor: a browser window, providing real time GPS tracking of the USS LST-325 as it steamed towards Cincinnati. All around me half of my possessions were in organized piles on the floor, the others tucked away in boxes.
Cincinnati & The 86th All-Star Game
For the first time since 1988 (and the fifth time overall), Cincinnati hosted a Major League Baseball All-Star Game. For the 86th rendition of the "Midsummer Classic," the city was transformed as the best players in all of baseball converged on the Queen City.
The Abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike
Up to that point I had never had a more terrifying experience while driving. I was trying to keep an eye on the semi in front of me, following his movements while avoiding smashing into him. Behind me: a continuous line of yellow lights presumably trying to do the same thing.
The Price Hill Masonic Lodge
Some of Cincinnati's most iconic buildings were designed by famed local architecht Samuel Hannaford and his Sons: City Hall, Music Hall and the Observatory are a few. In the city's East Price Hill neighborhood, a stoic Hannaford designed structure sits at the corner with hopes that it could see prominence once again.

Announcing: "Fading Ads of Cincinnati"
I am incredibly excited to announce that I've signed an agreement with The History Press to photograph and write a book about "Ghost Signs" in the greater Cincinnati area. Defined as "fading advertisements" and "disappearing art," "ghost signs" harken back to a region's economic and cultural past. Combining modern photography with historical research, I hope to create a book that brings to light these artifacts that are hiding in plain sight.

An Update on the "Dayton Executive Hotel"
The Dayton Executive Hotel originally opened in 1962. Initially a 225-room hotel that offered a unique and upscale restaurant, the lodging establishment would delve into an eyesore just off the interstate. We explored it back in 2012, but thanks to my friend Mike, we have this update.
