I met this amazing photographer a few weeks ago named Tara, who shared with me some incredible photos- and I instantly had to get them up here (for more info on her, visit her here). 

Tara is a fellow Midwesterner, and therefor has done a good deal of road tripping. Good times! What does road tripping entail (at least historically for me)? Lots of smoking, mix CD’s and shotty motels. Also… amazing sites, like these.

Below is the first set of photos in the “Americana… Tara Style” series that we will be posting over the next few weeks, jewels from her road-trips. Ah, they’re just so fun (and kinda’ scary). Enjoy!
