What Is Light Painting Photography?

Light painting is a remarkable and beautiful but highly skilled, almost surgical, method of photography with light wands, numerous exposures, and lots of finesse. The resulting images are visual jewels, fine art portraits of cars, planes, motorcycles and anything glass or metal with heroic lines. So unique is light painting, it is impossible to capture in any other way. This method allows our highly skilled photographer to "paint" light into the frame, resulting in breathtaking and one-of-a-kind visuals that showcase both creativity and technical skill. Each session is meticulously crafted to highlight your unique personality, with carefully placed lighting strokes that add depth and vibrancy to the image. For clients who value artistry, light paintings offer a modern take on classic portraiture, transforming photos into personalized works of art. By working closely with our skilled portrait photographer, you can achieve dynamic poses and compositions enhanced by creative lighting. This process involves layering controlled beams of light to add texture and dimension, making each photograph feel like a masterpiece.

How does it work?

It all starts with a phone call. We review images and styles, determine the best location, go over pricing and how to get the best results. Then we schedule the appointment to see your car/plane if you're close by.  We discuss details and determine the best location to shoot, then schedule a session.

 

After the session, your images will be composited and a few days later you'll see a composite of the finished image. A darn-near-finished proof for your approval. There are numerous sizes available for home and office.
