Sean Toler

I am an amateur photographer living in the Richmond, Virginia, area. I got into photography as soon as I had a 35mm point-and-shoot camera as a teenager. I took many a sunrise or sunset photo with it; in fact, I still photograph them to this day (but not with the same camera obviously). My involvement with abandonment photography began, and remains, something personal for me. As a teenager, my first real job was at an old country store. That country store no longer exists and unfortunately, I never thought to photograph it. I now hope that by capturing old buildings such as this on camera, I am helping preserve part of history as more and more of these old buildings succumb to weakness and decay or are demolished in the name of progress. I never considered becoming an author but the opportunity presented itself and so here we are. I hope that you will gain an appreciation for the old buildings I've photographed and maybe, in the future, I can have more books published, maybe even with my nature photography.
