Robert Posey is an award-winning photographer from Arab, Alabama who spent years focusing on tourism and travel in North Alabama before turning his interests to abandoned places. He has considered himself an explorer for as long as he can remember. His childhood was spent exploring acres of deep woods, and then as a teenager, after being dared by friends to spend a night alone in a dilapidated hospital, he began developing his interest in abandoned structures. Robert’s work, and that of his daughter, can be found on Instagram at @thebandofam and on TikTok at @bandofam.
