Berrien Springs, MI
A Rephotography Project
Rephotography isn’t new. Many photographers have taken historically significant collections of images and rephotographed the sites decades later to document both natural and manmade changes to the landscape and to compare the growth of population centers over time. I have had the opportunity to do a similar project here in Berrien Springs, MI.
I’d like to thank the Berrien County History Center for the image loan in order to create this project. Learn more about them here.
