After a ridiculously hot summer shooting in central park and almost falling off of skateboards, we took this shoot indoors. To follow the thread of “controlling the path of light”, we bought a remote control car on ebay and strapped a bunch of lights to it. The red light is a glo stick dragging behind [...]

For Fun: Diana Light Graffiti + Hearts
