Light-painting with Esther Gaudette

When I teach this technique, I often refer to it as "studio quality lighting crafted by hand" and this one is a good example. This is the kind of light you can achieve using a softbox and stobes. But the interesting part is that I am not behind the camera. I am with the model, and I decide, by drawing by hand, where I'm going to add highlights, shadows, contrast, and empty space.

 

 

Fresh from yesterday: one-second #lightpainting with Esther Gaudette.

 

 

How do I create pictures like this? All of the answers will be given at my next workshop at Adobe's headquarters on July 29th. ericpare.com/creative-photography-light-painting-workshop...
