When @mengesdesign was 8 years old he was struck by lightning. That random fact immediately came to mind as we looked over the first two images from our latest collaboration. I used a black fiber optic light brush from @lightpaintingbrushes (thanks for the heads up @lightnlense) to create this effect. To create the dappled light look in the other images I used the DIY mirror that I discussed a couple posts ago. I’ll be detailing my creative process in my upcoming book, The Creative Portrait, which will be released in early 2022. You can pre-order here.
