Piece description from the artist
This photo was taken at the New Jersey annual Balloon festival hosted by Quick Check. I was planning this shot out for days. Constantly checking the weather to make sure it lined up with my photo intentions. I'm checking the wind on the weather app THINKING that when it told me NW it meant the Balloons would blow to the North West. Well that did not happen.
What did happen is I was able to spend a fantastic relaxing evening on a blanket, with my partner, my camera and our dog. Watching the Balloons rise up (They even had an Elvis Balloon, so yes Elvis did rise that night). This was a perfect date night, and I feel like the photo captures exactly the emotion I was feeling that day.
Courtney is a landscape photographer who is deeply inspired by capturing the beauty of her surroundings. Her intention is to immerse the viewer in the setting so that they “feel what she feels” being in that moment in time.
Courtney describes her editing techniques as “punchy”. She believes that Mother Nature puts on the best show, and is inspired by color, clarity, and contrast. She loves capturing light and is particularly inspired by night scenes.
Courtney’s passion for photography started as a teenager when she would bring her little digital camera out on adventures through NJ with friends. She then began to take classes with local, professional photographers and soared into the industry from there. From a child to an adult, her passion has never diminished.
