Dance and Light
And a camera, too
Spent the evening with some friends doing a photoshoot for the upcoming NECTAR performance at Yoga Soup here in SB. Erin and Kaita have a fantastic dance routine where they are tied together with a long white cloth, pushing and pulling at each other. They wanted to capture some of the movement and energy in photos, and I had a few ideas. Here’s what we came up with:
D300, 12-24mm, f/8, off-camera flash
Hey Toby
Light painting combined with Off camera flash… .Gorgeous images, I really like them.
Funnily enough I’m doing a shoot tomorrow night using the same combination… but totally different subject matter.
I love the way you have made it look like the dancers ARE the light source.
Nice one

Hi, I’m in an AP Art class and I’m trying to work on motion blur photography. I saw your pictures and I thought they were beautiful? If you don’t mind, how did you capture these images? I’m new to photography and am trying to figure out how to do images just like yours.
