LIGHT PAINTING IS AN ART OF LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES AND BECAUSE OF THIS I REALLY STRUGGLED IN SOLIDIFYING A VISION FOR WHAT I WANTED TO SHOOT. THIS WAS MY MAKE UP ASSIGNMENT AND WAS TAKEN OUT ON THE EDGE OF MIDTOWN. I USED A STRONG XENON LIGHT TO LOCK IN MY TALENT, WHILE THE GENERAL LIGHTS OF THE BACKGROUND WERE PAINTED IN BY MOVING CARS AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS.
THIS VERY MUCH MAY HAVE BEEN MY FAVORITE SHOOT OF THIS CLASS, AND NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF ALL THE FREE FOOD I WAS GIVEN. THE GELATO COMPANY IS EMPLOYED WITH SOME OF THE VERY BEST OF PEOPLE AND THEY WERE SO HELPFUL AND WELCOMING IN LETTING ME PHOTOGRAPH THEIR FOOD THAT THE CHEFS TRULY VALUED, THEMSELVES, AS ART. I FELT IN MY ELEMENT IN THAT MOM-AND-POP RESTAURANT AND WALKED OUT WITH A FEW GREAT IMAGES AND GREAT FRIENDS.
