Light: The Language of Photography: Lou

Another "Real Person" shoot, using differing techniques.

In this series, we created with:

A light bulb waved behind the model during a long exposure. Generic portrait lighting, "playful" 80's style lighting, and the cloak / long exposure lighting, as used in other sets.

The one different technique I used was for the multiple exposure ones.

I would make a 15 second exposure (with the flash firing in the initial phase). Then turn the flash units down, and repeat during the exposure. Some worked, some didn't.
