I am Cody Schultz, a fine art photographer whose photography focuses on the dramatic side of nature. Each photograph is made with the final product - the print - in mind.
One of the most popular images on my Instagram, this piece was created back in August of 2016 on a wonderful night up in the mountains. Due to the popularity - and my love for the image - I knew I had to tell the story and process behind the image. So, without further ado, here it is!
Back in May of 2017, Melanie and I had decided to go on a camping trip rather than join the rest of the senior class in Disney. We began our adventure by seeing Kinzua Bridge State Park, headed over to Allegheny National Forest where we camped for a few days, and finished the trip with Cherry Springs and Ricketts Glen. One year later, we decided to do something new: explore some waterfalls in New York state…this is part one of that story.
Back in July of 2017, my family, girlfriend, and I went on a bus tour out west. We traveled from Salt Lake City, Utah to the Grand Teton Mountains, up to Yellowstone National Park, and ending the trip in Rapid City, Idaho. This is one of the images that I had taken while on this trip. It means the world to me...this is why.
