LIGHT PAINITING PORTRAITS
The most important thing with light painting portraits is that you always make sure to portray the personality of the model and not focus too much on the particular light painting technique. Especially with portraits, less is often more. Too many traces of light around the model usually distract from the actual portrait.
Das Wichtigste bei Light Painting Portraits ist, dass man immer darauf achtet die Persönlichkeit des Models darzustellen und sich nicht zusehr auf die besondere Light Painting Technik fokussiert. Gerade bei Portraits ist oft weniger mehr. Zu viele Lichtspuren um das Model herum lenken meist vom eigentlichen Portrait ab.

Here you can see the Light Painting Tool, which I use for most of the pictures. The bundle of black glass fibres, illuminated by a light blue Convoy S2+ was the only light source here.
Hier sieht man das Light Painting Tool, welches ich für die meisten Bilder verwende im Bild. Das Bündel schwarzer Glasfasern, beleuchtet von einer hellblauen Convoy S2+ war hier die einzige Lichtquelle.

Here I have attached a prism in front of the lens. I illuminated our model with a scanner.
Hier habe ich vor dem Objektiv ein Prisma befestigt. Unser Model habe ich mit einem Scanner eingleuchtet.

After the first pictures had worked so well because our model Emily had held still well, we shifted up a gear here. I lit Emily up a total of three times. She turned her head perfectly into the right position.
Nachdem die ersten Bilder so gut funktioniert hatten weil unser Model Emily gut stillgehalten hatte haben wir hier noch einen Gang höher geschaltet. Ich habe Emily insgesamt dreimal eingeleuchtet. Sie hat hier perfekt den Kopf in die jeweils richtige Position gedreht.

Here, the two siblings held the fibre optic tool in their hands first and I started the exposure. After a few seconds I covered the lens and took the tool away. In the second step, I painted them both with a second fibre optic tool in a different colour.
Hier haben die beiden Geschwister zuerst das Glasfaser Tool in den Händen gehalten und ich habe die Belichtung gestartet. Nach einigen Sekunden habe ich das Objektiv abgedeckt und das Tool weggenommen. Im zweiten Schritt habe ich beide mit einem zweiten Glasfaser Tool mit anderer Farbe angemalt.
Here you can see some of our fibre optic tools again. Mostly we use the black ones. These only light up at the ends. With the white and the coloured ones, there are larger traces of light. The coloured ones glow in the colour of their fibres when you shine a white torch on them. If you shine a coloured torch on them, the ends of the fibres shine in the colour of the light. This can be seen clearly in the picture. The red fibres glow green at the ends and the green ones glow blue.
Hier sieht man nochmal einige unserer Glasfaser Tools. Meist benutzen wir die schwarzen. Diese leuchten nur an den Enden. Bei den weißen und den farbigen entstehen größere Lichtspuren. Die farbigen leuchten in der Farbe ihrer Fasern wenn man sie mit einer weißen Taschenlampe beleuchtet. Wenn man sie mit einer farbigen Taschenlampe beleuchtet leuchten die Enden der Fasern in der Farbe des Lichts. Im Bild ist das gut zu sehen. Die roten Fasern leuchten an den Enden grün und die grünen leuchten blau.

These are as creative as ever! The second reminds me of a Kate Bush album cover for some reason 😀
Thanks
Fiber optics must be one of my most used tools I think ;)
