For Conde Nast Traveler, Photographer Danielle Levitt had the privilege to photograph a magical place, Walt Disney World in Orlando. However she did not rely on photographing the spectacle alone but instead captured the emotional moments that unfolded between parents and their children. She was able to capture nostalgia, excitement, joy, unpredictability that overall defines the Disney experience. The story Levitt wanted to follow was of a family discovering Disney for the very first time and her photographs perfectly capture the new sense of wonder and discovery.
The range of photos from candid portraits to colorful scenes filled with laughter and movement balances documentary photography with cinematic composition. Her photos are filled with natural and raw emotions which allows every frame to feel authentic and deeply personal. She keeps the focus on the human experience rather than destination itself, by capturing playful moments between siblings, the scale of the parks, and the iconic attractions.
Levitt has been known for creating imagery that feels intimate and authentic while also existing on a grand scale, this feature is just another example of that. She immersed herself into the experience and captured fleeting moments that families will remember for life. The result of her editorial reminds readers that travel is about connections and spending time with people, making Conde Nast Traveler a story that is emotional and visually striking.
Danielle Levitt is a part of Exposure NY’s photography division. Exposure NY is a photography/styling agency in New York City.
