Behind the Hedges follows the sensational success of Will Vogt’s debut monograph, These Americans. In this book, the excesses of youth have given way to the refined cadence of tradition. Vogt’s images draw power from their tension between proximity and distance, functioning as portraits of a class oriented toward preservation within a nation otherwise defined by reinvention. They depict a community adept at weathering change while maintaining its habit of self‑reproduction.

Will Vogt is a photographer whose work chronicles the lives and activities of his social circle. His work has been exhibited nationally and published in Wallpaper, Interview, AnOther, Collector Daily, and New York Magazine. Vogt divides his time between his home in Corpus Christi, his South Texas ranch, and Watch Hill, Rhode Island.
