Old school lightpainting

in Lightpainters United5 years ago

I started lightpainting quite a few years ago and I remember being obsessed with waving light sticks, wands or any object that emitted light around in the dark and also being quite happy with the results as a novice.

This is a collection of my earlier stuff where I blundered my way through trying to work out how to actually make the shots:

Meet Miss Polly Styrene: (I carried her everywhere with me on all my lightpainting trips but sadly she had to be retired to the bin after I dropped her and she got a severe dint in the head!)

I'm still not sure what I was thinking when I shot this:

This was a photoshoot with Jodie Painter in an abandoned railway tunnel where I may have become obsessed with fisheye lenses. I was also practicing with gelled flashguns quite a bit at the time...

All of the above were shot in one photographic exposure and are not Photoshop creations!

About me:
I usually specialise in shooting lightpainting images but occasionally dabble in urbex and artistic model photography. I'm always on the lookout for someone to collaborate with; please don't hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to create art.

Always great to see your old school stuff pal. If only we could tap into our minds from back then :)
