Keith Carter, a Texas native with a modest background, became a world-class artistic photographer. Many years later, he has not forgotten his roots; Carter still lives with his wife in Beaumont, Texas. He transforms the mundane details of small-town life into the sublime, revealing mystical, quirky, and difficult facets of human (and animal) nature.
Carter grew up watching his single mother scrape by as a child portrait photographer, but he never considered photography as a possible career for himself until college. At age twenty-one, the light in one of his mother’s prints caught his eye and inspired him to begin photographing his own pictures. For 15 years afterwards, he assisted his mother’s business around the state.
With no formal photography training, Carter learned to make art from a mentor and his own investigations. A local sculptor let him borrow from a private library of art books and literature. Carter would try to match the tonal range of famous photographs in his own prints. When he was twenty-five, he went to New York with special access granted to the archived prints at the Museum of Modern Art. He spent three weeks examining the work of great photographers first-hand.
Despite the lack of an artistic photography community in Texas at the time he began his work, Carter decided to make his home state the center of his artistic world. According to Carter, he “started looking at where I lived as an exotic land, almost as an allegory.” (Keith Carter Photographs, Introduction)
Carter is a husband and teacher. He is a professor at Lamar University and also teaches workshops. His work is represented around the world and in the permanent collections of many leading art museums.
Carter creates his images on the large, square negatives of a single-lens reflex Hasselblad camera. This camera allows him to make better quality large prints (even life-size), and the heavy machine is still small enough to operate as a hand-held device.
Blurring and limited depth of field are often incorporated into Carter’s work. This contributes to the mystery of his photographs, strongly emphasizes the area in-focus, and creates the sense that time and movement have just barely been captured for the viewer.
Keith Carter has published nine monographs, including Bones, Ezeikel's Horse, Mojo, and Holding Venus. People, especially children, and animals are frequently the subject matter of his pictures.
He says of his art, “These days I treat everything as a portrait, whether it’s a safety pin hanging from a string in a woman’s bedroom, or a man witching for water in a field. They’re the same.” (Keith Carter Photography, Fragments) Carter’s eye for unique portraiture is apparent in the way his work interacts with his subjects, often making the viewer ask questions. He draws on the emotional life of his subjects.
In addition to his portrait work and his fascination with the Texas landscape, Carter has a series entitled “Talbot’s Shadow”. These works, in which he places objects on sensitized paper and creates an image without a camera, have the same unsettling, beautiful quality as his photographs created in the camera.

Smith-Carter House
Madison, Tennessee
Listed 11/29/2018
Reference Number: 100003155
The Smith--Carter House in Madison, Tennessee, was lsited in the National Register of Historic Places on November 29, 2018 for its association with June Carter (Cash), who made numerous significant contributions to country music history while owning and occupying this property. Tied to an over-arching story of ownership and occupation by Grand Ole Opry artists Carl Smith, June Carter, “Mother” Maybelle Carter, and the Opry’s long-time manager, Jim Denny, the nominated property served as the place where June Carter came into her own professionally as a significant country artist, a regular performer on the Opry, and songwriter for many country hits (including the Certified Gold single “Ring of Fire”). June Carter was also the major force in country superstar Johnny Cash’s personal and professional life that enabled him to become one of the most influential artists within the American country music genre.
The period of significance from 1952-1968 encompasses the property’s historic associations with June Carter and country music culture in Nashville. The start date of 1952 marks the acquisition of the property by Carl Smith, June’s first husband, and 1968 represents the end of June’s significant association with the property, when she moved out of the home to live with her third husband, Johnny Cash, at their Hendersonville house on Caudill Drive (destroyed by fire in 2007). The property retains strong integrity in the aspects of location, setting, feeling, and association and displays few changes from its period of significance.
During this time in her career, June performed regularly on the Opry with her sisters, their mother Maybelle, and Aunt Sara. Carter’s time with the Opry proved crucial to her career; this is the place where she befriended Elvis Presley (who occasionally toured with The Carter Family) and met legendary country musician Johnny Cash. Around 1961, her relationship with Cash blossomed, as the Carter sisters were invited to perform on The Johnny Cash Show. The Carters even performed alongside fellow country icons Johnny Cash and Patsy Cline at The Hollywood Bowl in 1962. When she was not on the road, June spent a lot of time in Madison with her family and invited other artists to her home, including Merle Kilgore to collaborate on a record. June and Merle Kilgore had developed a very strong relationship as co-songwriters.
June Carter married Johnny Cash on March 1, 1968; though she had not changed her stage name in the previous marriages to Smith or Nix, her stage name changed to June Carter Cash upon their marriage. The nominated property was June’s home up until this point, but she and Johnny moved to the family’s new lake house (not extant) on Caudill Drive in Hendersonville in 1968 (very soon after their marriage), and remained there for many years. June, by then a veteran female country star who had helped bring country music into the mainstream, enjoyed continued professional success alongside other crossover artists in the 1970s, when country music became a pop-oriented trend.
The property is also eligible for local significance for architecture as an excellent local adaptation of the Monterey Revival style of architecture. It retains strong architectural integrity in the aspects of design, workmanship, and materials. Under this criterion, the year of construction (1925) functions as an additional period of significance. The 12.87-acre suburban property features a two-story stone dwelling. The property also includes a horse barn and chicken coop (both contributing structures), and a non-contributing storage shed, pool, and putting green.

Built 1830 by Fountain Branch Carter, and in use by three generations of his family. Here was command post of Maj Gen. Jacob D. Cox, Federal field commander of Schofield’s delaying action. The hottest fighting took place just east and south; nearby, Capt. Theodoric Carter, CSA, a son of the family, was mortally wounded.
A soccer game delayed our departure from Richmond. The trip took about an hour and fifteen to the bottom of the mountain. The last mile took an additional 40 minutes, at about 2 - 4 miles an hour. This has been sped up 32x.

Jay Z brings the Magna Carter World Tour -- his first solo trek in several years -- to the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma.
Absolutely fantastic show and great from a photographer's perspective too -- bright lights, lots of interaction -- all around a great time. The stage was a bit high and we only got two songs, but plenty of time to get some shots.
Please head on over to Antiquiet to read my review of the show www.antiquiet.com/reviews/2013/12/jayz-oklahomacity-revie....

I am really surprised how well the Sony HX80 P&S can do at concerts.
Carter's babies and kids is almost up and running in Temecula's Palm Plaza shopping center, this particular spot was once Jewel Scene pawn and jewelry while the store next to it was the shopping center's Avenue which is still vacant.
Looking back at Carter's, will try and take some pictures when they open, at least of the outside since my kid sister is too old for Carter's anyways.
