San Francisco · An ongoing documentary project

Yerba Buena Island
& Treasure Island

I’ve been photographing Treasure Island for nearly twenty years, returning to its buildings, streets, infrastructure, and open spaces as the landscape changes. Some of the buildings I photographed are now gone; those earlier images have become part of the record.

On Yerba Buena Island, I follow the shoreline, historic buildings, and newly accessible public spaces. Its overlooks give me a bird’s-eye view of Treasure Island and the Bay—a perspective I photograph from the ground, without a drone.

These projects bring those visits together, from earlier island landscapes to the parks and waterfront taking shape today.
