This is a collaborative project, a photo-essay, documenting the picturesque ideal in the contemporary American suburb. These pictures are intentionally framed around the aesthetic of the Hudson River School, American's premier landscape ideal at the moment the suburbs first became important. That movement, like our project, grew up in response to the loss of the pastoral landscape. These photos, like those paintings, contain the inevitable presence of man, as well as elements like framing trees, wide vistas and clouds. The central challenge of this project was photographing areas that many people would think of as 'ugly' in a way that is both beautiful and powerful.
