Musical Artist Bryson Storey Album Photo Shoot

Its always a good day when musician Bryson Storey asks me to take his photo. I was honored last year when he asked me to shoot the images for his debut album, "Bellwood Road".  That was a great photo shoot and taught me a lot about album photography. I was excited when he asked me to create the images for his next album and new website.

​This time I wanted to take my images of Bryson to the next level. I spent hours pouring over classic album art and images from the great country and southern rock artists of the past. I also looked back over my extensive library of unique locations throughout the Wiregrass that would most accurately capture the flavor of Bryson's music and the spirit of his Wiregrass roots. 

I was pleased with how the images turned out, and excited when Bryson picked the ones he wanted for the album. Please click on the images or here to visit Bryson Storey Music's website, Facebook and Spotify. Support local music!

Welcome to the Wiregrass, a place where abandoned doesn't always mean vacant, and vacant doesn't always mean empty. Nestled between Florida's sugar-white beaches and the agriculturally rich Black Belt, there exists a land of endless peanut fields and high cotton. This is the deepest of the Deep South, Dixie's last stand before accents and culture take on a decidedly Northern flavor along the Gulf Coast and Florida Peninsula. Narrow asphalt ribbons wind through this region's pine forests, passing through small farming communities that are fighting for survival in the global economy.

The lingering aftershocks of the 2008 economic crisis and 2018's Hurricane Michael still reverberate here. These pressures, along with an aging and declining population, have created a region where abandoned buildings are commonplace. These forgotten structures speak of dreams lost; from crumbling sharecropper shacks, to desolate main streets, to modern homes where the owners simply moved on. Take a journey with award-winning author and photographer Brian Braden as he chronicles the slow-motion apocalypse of abandoned homes and businesses of the Wiregrass and also discovers a place of hope and transition, where citizens fight to revitalize their hometowns and preserve a rich cultural heritage.
