Below is a selection of photos from an epic road trip I took across the USA with my brother Jeremy in 2002 in an ‘82 Cadillac Eldorado. All these photos were taken on 35mm film with a rudimentary Centon df300 SLR.
I exhibited these photos at the Karma Sanctum Hotel in Central London’s Soho in 2023 in conjunction with the launch of my debut non-fiction book Losing Eldorado - Searching for the Soul of America which details this momentous journey and our exploration into the roots of American popular music. Losing Eldorado can be described as:
“….the story of two brothers’ musical pilgrimage across the US in a 1982 Cadillac Eldorado, a love letter to American popular culture and the automobile…”
To view more of these photos you can purchase the accompanying photo book of the same name, which has over 100 unique images across 72 pages:
“…evocative, haunting and captured in a time just after 9/11, when the old stars were still in the ascendancy, this visual story creates nostalgia for a period when the West still believed that liberal democracy and human rights would prevail. A time when analogue was the norm before the digital era swept away conventions, lifestyles and industries many thought would never end.“
