Project Statement
Let weeping virtue mourn around the tomb,
and pious friendship wail thine early doom,
yet worth like thine sustains no rude decay
tho time should sweep these sculptur'd lines away
—From the gravestone of Stephen Emmans
St. Paul's Anglican Church Cemetery
St. Croix, USVI
My cemetery photography is less of a project, and more of a passion. I have hundreds of photos of gravestones, epitaphs, and cemetery landscapes. I’ve selected a few of my personal favorites to include on this page, some of which I’ve edited and others I have not.
All but two are from Woodbine Cemetery in downtown Harrisonburg, which I often walked through with my dog when I needed time for quiet reflection
