Piece description from the artist
In the beginning of each season I create a little photography bucket list. I use the notebook in my phone to write them all down. This photo was on that bucket list! I knew what I wanted to create with the Ferris Wheel, since I was planning it for a few months. When I was shooting it with the angle that I wanted I liked it, but didn't love it. We were walking around and we came to the swings. I was watching the swings and knew that it would look really cool as a long exposure shot. They were spinning at different times, I remember sitting there talking out loud trying to tell the Ferris Wheel to start spinning. This was the one and only shot that I could get where for 4 seconds they were both working at the same time.
I celebrated with fried Oreos!
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.
