Frozen Splash Artistic Photos

Frozen Splash

Frozen Splash is a series of artistic photographs of tea splashes. The images were made during an experimental studio session in Kuwait. Cups were tied to a transparent rope and pulled, so the liquid was thrown into the air. A speedlight flash placed in the background froze the motion, and careful shutter timing captured the splash within a fraction of a second. The raw files were then color corrected and edited with digital software. Each pull of the thread formed a different shape, so every image is unique.

Flying in Dreams Levitation Photography

Flying in Dreams

Flying in Dreams is a photography series created with the levitation photography technique. The series shows children in white outfits appearing to float above the ground. Each image is composed from two or more frames taken from the same angle, with and without the subject. The frame without the subject is used to remove the supports that held each pose. The series was produced through location scouting, outfit making, pose and prop planning, lighting setup, shooting and digital editing. The intent is to express the purity of childhood dreams.
