This is a result of light painting experiments at the studio photography workshop, at Studio Blanco.
Light painting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source or by moving the camera. It is called painting with light because this is what you are actually doing while taking the shot – painting with light.
In this workshop we photographed Sammy and used small torches to light our model. The shutter speed varied from 15-30 seconds.
It is harder than it looks!

At week two of Lighting Techniques: Challenging Lighting workshop I photographed an aspiring musician, Gary Woodword.
The light setup included a reflective umbrella on the left side and a soft box on the right, both behind the subject, to achieve a dramatic and mysterious look. Sometimes Gary could not keep a straight face, though… 🙂
