Courtney Brooke
Courtney Brooke is a New England based photographer who grew up in a dreamy place where Transcendentalism met with Utopian wonder and wooded ritual. While she travels frequently, Courtney will forever call the rolling foggy New England hills her home. She pulls inspiration from photos taken in earlier dates and the rich history of the environment that surrounds her. Self-discovery and personal conviction came quite easy for Courtney as she spent much of her time alone as a child which has been the precursor to a vigilant creativity, sensory sensitivity and vibrant imagination that cannot be destroyed. Courtney identifies herself as an artist rather than a photographer; photography is simply her preferred medium. She is both a sleepwalker and daydreamer with a camera in hand. In love with the human form and experience, she collects a strange history on film. Seeing the beauty in everything, even flaws, comes as a natural gift to her. Her images solidify the feelings of romance and awe, with rich colors and haunting natural light. You can feel her inspiration when you see the heat of an orange summer sun on the horizon. One can see her love for the 1960s and 70s in her models’ clothing, haunting expressions and tantalizing colors. Her work reveals an overwhelming sense of nature and mystery.
In her many adventures to dress her models and create a magical atmosphere for her photos many fine garments have made there way into her world. So in attempt to share the beauty she finds in dressing and in old clothes she has also stated selling her vintage clothes in her online store where you can also find a handful of her prints.
If you are a vintage seller, clothing designer, band, artist or just in need of some photos, art direction or are looking to advertise on the Light Witch blog, please feel free to email Courtneybrooke.Hall@gmail.com for further information.
