After the party it’s the Waffle House
If you ever been here you know what I’m talkin about

Inspired by Ed Ruscha, I photographed the 12 Nashville area Waffle Houses.The book is bound with a custom Waffle House pattern. The first edition is a yellow cover with black stitching and the second edition is a black cover with yellow stitching.
Sold out. Available for exhibition.
The bright yellow sign with the monospaced WAFFLE HOUSE is a beacon of hope on a long road in the South. There is much to love about a Waffle House. Open 24/7, 365, they are always there for you. They’ve got waffles, eggs, and the heavenly hashbrowns with sickenly sweet sweet tea. They known for their disaster response, often being the first place to reopen after a hurricane or tornado, so much so that FEMA has the “Waffle House Index”. But more than that, everyone has a great Waffle House story.
