Santa Monica Pier, California FRAMED PRINT

In my Infrared series, I desire to cast a critical eye on the sights and temptations of Las Vegas and Los Angeles, two cities that are world-renowned for its wholesale acceptance of glitz, glamour, and every dark corner between. I traveled to popular tourist spots to measure their appeal and to figure out if they were all they promised to be. The nature of my infrared photos makes ordinary locations seem exotic and bizarre. With my photographs in Las Vegas and Los Angeles, however, the locales that I visited fit right into the exaggerated color schemes of infrared photography: both Las Vegas and Los Angeles are the only places where excess is an asset rather than a liability. 20x14 Infrared Print FRAMED
