Justin Tedford Fine Art Photography

Justin Tedford is a fine art photographer, author, and educator based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He grew up in Harrison County, in the Loess Hills of western Iowa, and spent much of his childhood on his grandparents’ farm. That landscape still shapes his work today. He started out wanting to photograph wildlife and later turned to landscapes. His work is a long study of Iowa: its rolling hills, open fields, and fading rural places. He has published three books: Iowa: Land Between Two Rivers, Vanishing America: A Journey Through the Forgotten Relics of Route 66, and The Art of Seeing: Developing the Photographer's Eye. Justin is a senior staff writer for Fstoppers and judges photography at the Iowa State Fair. He also teaches photographers through his education brand, The Framework. Each print in this collection comes from his belief that the most ordinary places often hold the most to see.

Back

Route 66

Stretching from Chicago to Santa Monica, Route 66 is more than a highway. It’s a living piece of American history. Neon motel signs, vintage gas stations, quirky roadside attractions, and small towns that grew up along its path. This collection follows the Mother Road and celebrates the places, people, and stories that still keep its spirit alive.
