I went on a dark adventure in a parking lot a while back: a photo shoot by Manon Vosters, who captured my friend Eliska and me. The whole idea came from making a cool picture of our contrasting hair colors. We ended up doing one big fun photo shoot, while simply playing and fooling around the whole time. We made cartwheels and handstands, light-painted with firework, jumped up and down, climbed up in the door openings and had a lot of fun doing so.
I tend to go for visuals that are one big color explosion. So it was cool to see how Manon made the pictures in her own unique style. I love how the pictures turned out.
Have you ever light painted before? (this was my first time)

How fun! I really like how these pictures turned out for you guys too. I definitely love the hair braided together (genius!) and all the action shots–even the blurry ones (actually, I might even like those best. They show movement which makes me think about the movement and makes the pictures more exciting.) : ] My favorites are the 2 right above the heart light picture. <--Also very cool! I have never had the chance to try that, but I am seriously holding onto the hope that I get to!

I like the movement too. We were thinking about maybe making a stop motion move next time, then there will be even more movement!

I am obsessed with the photograph wherein the girl is in midair underneath the doorframe. I love it :D

Yeah me too. We tried to get up there both first, but is was really hard, because the space was actually just too big to climb up easily haha
