Just because you didn’t get to go to that awesome photography conference doesn’t mean that you can’t learn something from the pros! Occasionally, we’ll be featuring a recommended photography lecture on Phototuts+.

This week you'll get a look into the career path of Todd Hido, a San Francisco Bay Area-based artist. While Hido does portraiture and architecture photography, his most recent work typically focuses on the America landscape: photographing streets and subdivisions, especially at night.

Visit Todd Hido's website here to see more of his images, and find a list of his photography books on his Wikipedia page here.
