“I see the world for its details. There is something different about life when you look at the components that make the world up rather than the overall picture. There is a story in every single object. I want to tell that story.” – Michelle Cox

While attending Purdue University Calumet, I took my first photography class and fell head over heels in love. I had always been a lover of art however this new love of art through a lens changed my life. Shortly after graduating from Purdue I decided to go back to school for Photography. I am currently attending Prairie State College in Chicago Heights, Illinois as a part time student and working a full time job in Tinley Park, Illinois.

My favorite type of photography is when the abandoned and forgotten side of the world is revealed and exposed. There are so many tales left unfinished through locations and objects that are left for “dead”. My goal is to tell their story at least one more time before they are gone. Through every image I try to capture not only the moment but also the emotions that I experience when there. I want others to feel the pain of the discarded yet the beauty that is still held there. I want to reveal the stories that these walls tell, the emotions that these unloved objects convey.

Welcome to the adventure.
