Hi everyone,
I collaborated several times with Amelia since we first met last year and it's always a pleasure.
She's more interested in lightpainting now so we decided to focus on that.
During summer, we met at a pedestrian bridge very close to my flat. I chose this location because it offers a lot of possibilities for a kinetic approach in lightpainting : I mean I use lights in the environment and I make my camera rotate on its axis using a "camera rotation tool". I cap/uncap the lens to capture only what I want to. This technique can look to be a "lazy" approach of lightpainting but it's trickier than it seems, especially when you want to place someone into the composition.
Here is the process : I first used a flashgun to lit Amelia, then I capped the lens and she left the frame. After that, I uncapped the lens and I started to do my job (capping and uncapping the lens while rotating the camera and pulling the zoom). When I felt I made enough, I ended the long exposure.
Lightpainting created in real time, captured to the camera in one single photographic frame. SOOC

Lightpainting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source while taking a long exposure photograph, either to illuminate a subject or to shine a point of light directly at the camera, or by moving the camera itself during exposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing.
