About Me

I am Keegan McCarty, a black and white landscape photographer based in the Greater Los Angeles area, drawn to the stark beauty of California’s deserts and the forgotten presence of abandoned structures. My work captures the contrast between light and shadow, the textures of forgotten places, and the vast, untamed landscapes that define the American West. Through my lens, I seek to preserve the stories etched into weathered facades and desolate horizons—moments of solitude, resilience, and the quiet passage of time. Each image is an exploration of stillness and space, where nature and decay intertwine to create something both timeless and surreal. If the connection with the raw, unfiltered beauty of the desert and forgotten places, I invite you to explore my work. Let’s bring these landscapes and lost structures into new light.
