Description:
A big part of my photography is looking for those things in everyday life that we all "see" but barely notice. And this is an apt statement for my Reading San Francisco project. We all "see" signs virtually everyday, at almost every turn. But how often do we really see them? This project suggests that by not seeing those signs, we're missing the stories and histories they tell us about our towns, cities and neighborhoods. And yet, I believe, these are stories and histories we shouldn't be missing because they're really our own stories; our own histories.

These images are available as archivally produced prints either 15"x15" or 19"x19".
