Photographer Todd Hido’s work evokes the haunting atmosphere of Gregory Crewdson or even David Lynch, crafting ethereal images of suburbia that find beauty in the mundane and the uncanny in the ordinary.
Well known for his photography of landscapes and suburban housing, and for his use of detail and luminous color, acclaimed American photographer Todd Hido casts a distinctly cinematic eye across all that he photographs, digging deep into his memory and imagination for inspiration.
Hido’s first book, House Hunting, came from driving around at night, exploring random streets and photographing houses that seemed isolated — looking for properties that could be found anywhere in America.
Now, a newly assembled, chronological album Intimate Distance: Over Thirty Years of Photographs published by Aperture, showcases ten years of Hido’s work, including new images from his travels to Iceland, Norway, and Japan.
