The Abandoned Building Photographs by Cari Ann Wayman are Intimate

— August 23, 2012 — Tech
Cari Ann Wayman is a young photographer out of Northern Illinois that has been taking some amazing Abandoned Building photographs.

Despite being only 23 years old, Wayman has a very good eye for capturing buildings and artifacts that have been left behind and forgotten. She is not only a great photographer, but also an explorer. She often puts herself in the photographs, creating some amazing self portraits that draw the attention to this girl who stands out -- almost lost -- amidst the rubble.

These bleak and almost haunting captures showcase some rooms that have wallpaper falling from their walls and giant indoor pools that instantly capture your attention. I really enjoy how she has documented the left behind objects in the former home, like the typewriter or the notebook with the locket.
