CERCLA PHOTOGRAPHIC DOCUMENTATION

Robbie Maynard is a Massachusetts based photographer and visual storyteller whose

work focuses on the relationship between people and the landscapes they shape.

Working primarily in documentary photography, environmental portraiture, and

landscapes, his photographs often explore places where human intervention and the

natural world collide.


Alongside his photography, Robbie shares much of his process through YouTube,

where he creates videos centered around documentary storytelling, fieldwork, and

analog photography. His channel gives viewers a closer look at the work behind the

images, from photographing remote locations to discussing the ideas that shape

long-term projects.


Through his photography, Robbie wants to make his YouTube videos feel like a living,

breathing journal entry. An entry that blurs the lines between mediums. Often times

allowing for the natural soundscape to proceed, uninterrupted. The photographs and

video elements act as a call and response, in places where the video asks a question,

the photo will answer.

In this style, Robbie has taken queues from artists that inspire him through their visual

storytelling. Noting books like Mitch Epstein’s Family Business and Larry Sultan’s

Pictures from Home as key motivators in blending multiple forms of documentation.

Among the multi-media approach, Robbie includes his soundtrack to bring to life

the photographs and video. This is an artist who has made every aspect of what you are

seeing and hearing.
