Laura Stotts drives thousands of miles between her family’s homes in Utah and North Carolina, and along the way she makes wide detours to feed her pet passion—exploring and photographing old abandoned buildings and ghost towns.

Stotts is certain of one thing: She’s alive for a reason, and that reason is to document forgotten places through her camera. For Stotts, preserving their memory is tied to her former bout with addiction and teetering on the brink of death.
