COURTNEY BROOKE’S PHOTOGRAPHY

“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.” (Bio from her myspace)

Honestly i’ve found that crazy photographer, searching for a roller-girl pict in google, then took a look at his Flick’r Portfolio and discovered her universe…She despite with photographies, a world with no age, mysterious and a lil’ bit Lsd/esoteric sometimes. I cant’ think about nothing but it’ll be a very great photography direction  for a 70’s Fantastic/Sci-Fi/Horror inspired movie. I really like the way she treats pictures with the oldie touch. I have no doubt about her work can be in direct relation with Bat for Lashes (Natasha Khan) music…On some Native american 70’s Hippie shit! Really like the atmosphere and the colors of her work, so here’s a selection of clichés and if you want to see more, hit her Flick’r. -KoolFunc’88
